Budget for bits of dash and trim as they often have holes in for radio gear and the like.
As said Panda cars are generally wrecks pursuit cars better looked after and often up spec or tuned

Looks like they have some small holes in the silver bits and the top dash vent cover, fairly cheap to replace by the looks of it.

I have had a few ex police Volvo's in the past with no issues, but it depends on how much you are saving as they can be hard to resell.

By the time I've done 50k I think it may be hard to sell on. The only issue would be the higher millage it has already done. I've seen much higher when searching though. (Worst was an 08 plate 320D touring with about 190,000 miles on it for nearly 5.5k)
