Hi all

I haven't been on the forum for years, as i sold my 4x4 panda some time ago.

But now its time to get another Panda, i have missed them, transit vans just aren't the same!

Problem is, i dont know where to look for one. Panda's on ebay seem to go for a bit much in my opinion, and seem few and far between.
Whats happened to panda's? does this mean in 10 years time there will be none left? what will we have to do, drive modern cars.... nooooo!

Does anyone have any suggestions of where to hunt for a lovely panda?

Probably thousands have been crushed since you parted company with yours...

I don't think the ones on Ebay are overpriced, more often than not you can pick up a bargain. The higher prices these days just reflects that they are becoming more of an interest to the general public, and those of us that have always appreciated them realise that they are becoming harder to find, especially good ones.

Well put Vern...

I guess so yes, when i bought my last one is was £150, now its more like £500!
oh well, the search goes on!

If you are looking for a Sisley, the fact it is a Sisley will put the asking price up considerably despite the condition. The 4x4 and Sisley now appear to be the holy grail of Pandas...

not looking for sisley, thats just what i used to own. then a panda 750, then a 4x4 white panda,..mmmm i loved my panda's. cant wait to have another.

Vernon's quite right - prices have increased sharply in the last 2 years. The free or £50 project is long gone and a decent one has gone from £200-£300 to around £400-£600 recently. The 4x4's, and Sisley's in particular, are now at £2k plus for a good one.

Still not expensive in my view, but a 100% increase (from a low base admittedly) is impressive!!

Buy one now, better value than gold and going up in price faster!!! :worship:

Gavin.

Prices have gone up because the Panda is now becoming a rarity and is a classic car!

El bandito's 903cc sounds nice...solid and just 58K on the clock...:idea:

I think you can get tablets for that now. Lying down in a darkened room helps, or is that migraines???? :shrug:

Sadly I heard of a local 4x4 that was weighed in - he got £150
(when I last drove one in (Astra Van) I got £40)
I told him he'd have got a lot more than that but he just shrugged...

Congatulations! I'm assuming that's Davids Dance, in which case you have no need to worry.

Yes indeed, you are in safe hands there! Congrats and look forward to piccies!!!
