Fiat Panda 2012
A cheap acquisition and maintenance, relatively quiet for its class (!), little rust, a good audio system, super power steering, simple, so few modern problem, a small tax.
With my 100+ kilograms I feel comfortable in it, mostly used by 2 people, but you can also drive 4.

Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: A cheap acquisition and maintenance, relatively quiet for its class (!), little rust, a good audio system, super power steering, simple, so few modern problem, a small tax.
With my 100+ kilograms I feel comfortable in it, mostly used by 2 people, but you can also drive 4.
Cons: Have to lubricate door mechanisms on a regular basis, otherwise door begins to wedge and cannot be opened and closed, especially if car is not used for some time. Not prestigous.
