Gotta admit, it's more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow.

[@anubiasab]

you aren't wrong

[@steakandkidney3142]

Rolly cornering, skinny squealing tyres and a torquey diesel engine. Fiat Panda is very underrated.

[@nightrain4500]

as a lifelong fiats' pasenger and driver I agree with this very much

[@trooperdgb9722]

Well said. I rented a tiny little car from an Off brand car rental place in New Zealand (there are many of them..the cars are 6-10 years old... but in general, well maintained..IME anyway) Can't remember the make...but it had a tiny engine..with a SIX speed manual gearbox. Good lord it was fun! You never went particularly fast... but you FELT like you were...it was a hoot! Especially on NZ's winding roads...

[@acciid]

I had a Panda 750 back in the day and had a lot of fun in it. You really had to work out to make progress and it was all about momentum and taking bends properly. For the last eight years I've owned a Mk7 golf R. Love it, but it's just so easy to go quickly.

[@TwinCam]

Pandas are just brilliant little things. Giugiaro, who styled the original, said he wanted it to be 'a pair of denim jeans in car form'. So it was focused, timeless, simple, and dependable. One of the icons of simple motoring.

[@Jack-tx2ve]

Probably the best all around vehicle ever.

[@davidelliott5843]

I love the later 169 model. It’s just a great little car. Perfect for British cities and the small lanes anywhere west of Bristol. The 4x4 Cross diesel is surprisingly quick and behaves like a mountain goat.

[@Jack-tx2ve]

@@davidelliott5843 Also great cars but lack the simplicity of the original design. Original panda simplicity is impossible to achieve in the modern world.

[@miaugato93]

The original did have the option of jeans interior too

[@davidelliott5843]

The interior trim colours do suffer (pale colours). Get it trimmed in denim.

[@Lincolntowncoupe]

The entire segment where Jeremy is trash talking the Panda just because James has one with James spinning out of control in the background in the SLS then the Marina falling onto it is simply gold.

[@danielefabbro822]

I wont treat cars in that way, but yeah, I also know british have their own sense of humor so... But in general we italians have a sort of convinction about cars, we think that everyone of them have a soul. Well, not all, I want to say that all the italians knows about cars, but thats not the reality. Thats why our young guys wants to buy Volkswagen... Das Auto. 🤣🤣🤣

[@silvanbeppigno4050]

a very honest car !!!

[@steddie4514]

Especially the 4x4.....which I drive 🙂

[@Jo_Wardy]

I had one I. Australia and the driving I did to work and home and grocery shopping it was so cheap on fuel. I miss it badly it had an engine knock so I’m so depressed. I replaced the broken radiator and it ati overheated the coolant :(

[@Jo_Wardy]

So reliable I drove mine over 300kms in one go and only stopped for fuel and it even had an issue where it would big down and when I turn the key off and on again mid highway speeds it would return to normal power. This thing was a beast. People usually shit on fiats but they some really reliable vehicles

[@SolaScientia]

James talking about how much fun the Panda is to drive because of the size and tires reminds me of the 1981 (I think that's its year) Toyota Tercel I learned to drive a manual on. Tiny thing that weighed nothing, but was the most fun ever on dirt roads in the middle of nowhere. My parents still have it. It's up on blocks and while the engine was still good at the time, the interior was falling apart (lining coming down, bits coming off the dash, trunk had to be wired shut because the latch had broken (would fly up going over railroad tracks), etc). Not sure it'd be worth fixing up, but it was such a fun little car.

[@709mash]

It's always more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow imo. That's why I feel the MX5 is one the best sports cars you can buy.

[@AlejjSi]

@@709mash Well, you don't even try to go fast in it. Even if you compare the Panda to for example a Skoda Fabia, you drive them in the same way, Panda will feel much more fun than the Fabia. But what you say is true aswell, obviously that's why James bought it. He wouldn't have so much fun going to Tesco's in a 430 or a 458 and maybe he wouldn't even make it there at all.

[@ethansmith9065]

[@kristianferrari8764]

I own a first gen Panda and have driven all 3 generations delivering pizzas. Absolutely love these cars and I completely agree with May on the twin air engine of the last generations. It's such a fun engine to play with. Given that it has just 875cc to get 85hp out of it Fiat set up the turbo to come late and strong, which means that you have like 50hp and minute consuption till 2500 rpm and then all of the sudden you have 85 and the game is on. I would love to swap the twinair into the older, lighter, first gen car

Now, as a railway buff, here's My Take on the Panda: It's Like a Narrow Gauge engine. Not very fast, not very strong. But it has a charm Like few other vehicles do. It's a friend. Requires some patience, but will get you there.

[@NSHorseheadSD70]

As a railway buff, I understand where you're coming from

[@nothanksguy]

Rather fitting. Narrow gauge brought transport to small, poor, remote hillside communities that wouldn't be served by full gauge service

[@mobyhuge4346]

We Indonesians take this to heart, there's something really charming about seeing a narrow gauge locomotive/train trundling along at 40-70 mph

[@trooperdgb9722]

Outstanding analogy!

[@justforever96]

Not really a good comparison. Narrow gauge engines are still rare and special, built for their specific little railways. The Panda is cheap, good, ubiquitous transportation for the masses. If it had a real analog it would be a street car or two, but I don't really see any good rail connection. They are just widely different animals. Me broadly you might say the Panda is the 4-4-0 American type if the car world, or the GP40. Or maybe the 0-4-4 Forney if you want to stick with narrow gauge and cheap, utilitarian, small and functional.

[@Valigarmanda]

The Fiat Panda is truly one of the cars ever made.

[@bilalstyler98]

When James said "It's Pandain' time" and Panda'd all over the place, I couldn't stop crying. Definitely one of the moments that ever happened.

[@Snarl616]

My GF had a 2005 one, guacamole green with black roof. It's the sort of car that you don't particularly like when you have it, but you miss when you don't. It's a friend.

[@Avio033]

I had a Fiat Panda Lounge with the 0.9l two cylinder Twin Air engine for 5 years. Most fun car I ever had. Slow as hell but just so fun. Loved sliding it on roundabouts and tight bends and the engine made it sound like you were doing 200mph in a V8 supercar all the time. Lovely little thing. Now I have an electric Corsa, which actually is proper fast and has amazing grip due to the low center of gravity. It's a car that you can take corners really fast with. Which actually makes me miss my Panda a bit since the Corsa drives safely. I can take corners twice as fast as I could with the Panda and the Corsa will just grip effortlessly. Wheras with the Panda I always had to fight it a bit to keep it from over or understeering. Panda simply is life. It's love..

[@elnyoutube123]

That's what makes the pandas so fun. You're always on the limit even if you're going slow

[@hsh.rlph.leblanc.131]

[@jamesbaldwin6132]

I have had a Panda 1.2 diesel SkyDome since 2005. After 240,000 miles it returns over 70 mpg and is still on its original exhaust. Numerous other parts have been replaced due to normal wear and tear but it must be the cheapest car I have ever owned in over 50 years of motoring.

[@silvanbeppigno4050]

Pandas are the best cars ever: as tools, they're absolutely brilliant, whatever gen you pick! 🐼

[@AlejjSi]

10:26 my 2007 Panda works also very good, except for one small thing. When I turn on the lights and try to change the direction of the fan air flow from passengers to the window or the other way, half of the middle panel above the gear stick goes dark and after a few minutes, it comes back and works until you switch it off. I could have fixed it, but for me, this is so Italian and not really obstructing the ride at all so I left it like this just to feel right like in a Italian car (though it was made in Poland this 169 generation🙃).

[@civiere]

If you don't want your dear panda to burn down i'd check it out if i was u. Its probably a short. Might even be in the plug, airgrate moves cable but it bounces back while moving. Real Italian would be if it just fails completely or falls off. Unexplainable on and off electrics are dangerous!

8:05 damn bro had the whole squad laughing

[@Peksisarvinen]

My mom used to drive a Fiat Uno when I was a teenager, until one time, the exhaust pipe snapped as she was taking me and my friends to hockey practice. The downside was that we were left stranded on the side of the road. The upside was, I got my first car. Never fixed the exhaust either, so it was insanely loud, and we even painted some GT stripes on it to make it look like a racing car. Or that's what we thought anyway. That car taught me and at least three of my friends how to drive, cruising along the country roads. My mom on the other hand "upgraded" to a purple 127 I think it was, because my dad had like three of the damn things laying around. Wasn't a big fan back then, but now, in my mid 30's, I'd absolutely LOVE to have that purple little Fiat for myself, just because of funny it would be to drive around in it. Anyway, I'm usually a big block V8 type of a guy for the most part, but these little cars definitely have their own brand of charm to them.

While I'm not too keen on the newer pandas in the compilation...I'd LOVE to have one of those old school 4x4 versions up here in rural Michigan. The fun you could have with a set of winter tires, little bit of extra weight in the back.. I'd quite literally never be moving in a straight line at any point of any trip. And the beautiful thing. Is when you eventually drift out of control into a massive snowbank.. Even if you've got a relatively small woman with you. You'd be able to simply lift the car up and place it back on the road.

[@pierpaoloscian5926]

As an Italian with an original fiat Panda 4x4.. and i can confirm, it's superfun to drift in the snow in winter. I managed to climb a 20 degrees slope (35%) with 10cm of snow on all season tires😳 and since I now to university far from my city, it has done 20000km in a year, mostly motorway at 130km/h. She can do everything you want, if you give her the opportunity! It's a pity you all can't enjoy it in the us.. albeit now almost all old school pandas are over 25, so free to import in the US 😁
