I know it's not very retro (but not budget motoring either owing to the price), but this has been my daily driver for the past year and it's a great car. Selling it because I'm a convertible whore and miss my old MX5 so I'm buying another sports car...
Stuff you need to know:
- Full service history
- Taxed 'till April 2012 (£165 a year)
- MOT'd 'till November 2012 (no advisories)
- Insurance group 5 (using old system - costs me about £350 a year living in nice area, no points, 8yrs protected no claims, theft of my MX5 on the record)
- Just over 53,000 miles (a little higher than some others of this age but it's been virtually all motorway - I'm a freelance writer and it's been to the Geneva and Frankfurt motor shows in the past year!)
- Last serviced at 50,500 miles
- New brakes all round
- Had new tyres and alignment done November 2010 (plenty of life left on tyres, alignment still spot on)
- Air conditioning recently serviced
- Getting genuine 43mpg average - basically pretty much what Fiat claims. The car gets enjoyed but never thrashed, so the economy is good as a result. It'll do 50mpg on the motorway and never measured it around town.
Less good stuff:
- Cigarette lighter missing (yawn)
- Few stonechips on bonnet. No rust in any of them.
- Wheels slightly scuffed (barely noticeable. And no, it wasn't me who did it...)
- Handle for bonnet release slightly broken. Still opens the bonnet, but hangs down at the side of the passenger footwell rather than being in it's little gap. Common Panda(/Fiat) problem, apparently.

Price:
£5,500. Sensible offers welcome.
Car is located in Harrogate, North Yorkshire as the title suggests. You can reach me at 07854648066 or via PM. My name is Antony, just so you know who to ask for on the phone!
It'll be going up on ebay soon too as a classified ad, but thought I'd let you chaps see it first.
