...and I'd like to thank you.

With your help and advice, I am now the proud owner of a 1998 Fiat Panda 4X4.

I'd specifically like to thank Palio and DragonMan for your advice.

Pictures (inevitably) to follow...

Congratulations '98, lhd then?

Nope, typo! 1989

We need pics!

It seems to be in fantastic condition...

and full of spares...

and with time capsule mileage.

Enough of the teasers, we want full car photos, looking good so far though

Before the journey home from Halifax

That is one good looking 4X4, nice purchase

Overnight stop, north of Derby

I'm glad you got it in the end!

I'm sure it's going to have a good home, so whatever happened with the first "buyer" it's worked out for the best.

that is a sweet looking panda... it saddens me to think that once, Fallout looked like that

i am sad enough to say that i have a few of those.. pic controllers :/

I love the 4x4 stickers!!!

Amazing looking car, well done!!

Nice car. Y'know Panda's get lonely at night and prefer the company of another Panda to keep them company

I've been trying to tell Mrs P1NKY that. No luck so far, so it has to cuddle up to a Jeep Grand Cherokee

hows that front drive shaft / diff? does it have the cherokee trait where it knocks and has play?

friend of mine has one thats a 2000 3.1 diesel auto.. that has play in it. i think its my job to change the front diff.

i just so happen to have a spare set of headlamps for it too if you are interested lmao!

So far (90k) so good for a fourteen year old bus. Their not built for working on (like my Land Rover) but the cheap spares from the US justify keeping it going.
