I work for West Yorkshire Police. We are currently trying to trace a Classic Fiat Panda for use in a reconstruction. We are looking for a two tone Fiat Panda with a lilac bottom and cream/brown coloured top. The approximate date of registration is 1993 - 1995.


Can you help? If you can assist or can point me in the right direction for someone who can, please send me a message and I will send you my work email address. Thanks

Hello there,

It's an unusual colour combination, it might be likely that you'd have to repaint or wrap one to get the required results. It sounds like a Mk1 colour combination, you have stated '93 - '95 which is right at the end of the Mk2 period.

What fate would befall the required car? If you are able to share this information it might help, owners will not like to think that any damage would occur to their cars especially as panels and parts are tough to source.

You may be best enquiring on our Facebook group as well, it seems that more people use the Facebook group on more of a regular basis.

Cheers.
 
Hi


Thanks for responding. It would only be needed to take a few photographs of and potentially a little filming for a television appeal. We don't need to damage the car in any way. I didn't include in my original post that we need a Panda with a roll top roof (in fact it may be the roof that is cream rather than being a two tone vehicle).
I'll have a look on Facebook but if anyone can assist, please get in touch.

Thanks

Hi, as stated by Andy, that is a strange colour combination, especially for one of the later mk2 Panda models.

Most Pandas by that time were just one solid colour, mine being red and nothing else. As northernchap stated though, there were some with the twin canvases on top which may be where your colour differs. If it is then the Parade might be what you're looking for, in which there's a few around, but not many. In any case, those canvases should be black/gray though as opposed to cream or brown...

Any more details you can give? Any kind of special edition, engine size or any inkling towards anything else where we may be able to help you? If it really is around 1993-1995 then it may be possible it was a respray/wrap that the car you're originally looking at had. Any pictures of that car? I assume not, but worth asking!

Cameron's old one onemanmade was the only one I can recall fitting something like the description, it was on ebay a bit ago does anyone know what happened to it?

It was on eBay?

The car was to the best or knowledge scrapped, the last pic of it turned up on flickr (Google the number plate K852 PTP)

The parade I had had replacement Mohair sunroof fabric rather than the original black vinyl.

The car mentioned sounds a bit like a "habitat" special edition
