Hello everyone!
I am the proud owner of a 1991 H-plate Panda Super. I also have a turbocharged Cinq, and there are loads of cento groups on the net, but you guys are the first Panda forum I’ve found!! I’m a complete Fiat-phile and I love my Panda just as much as my Cinq, cus it’s so simple, goes anywhere, does anything, never lets me down, and no-one ever wants to steal it (none of which I can say about my other car), and it has just as much personality as the Cinq.
It’s a 999cc carb FIRE lump, and is completely standard. It’s red-orange, with fetching brown and beige cloth trim. There’s not too much rust, and what there is has been treated. The person who owned it before me scraped the f/n/s wing, so there’s a little P38-filled patch with slightly redder paint, but I’ll forgive them cus they have definitely looked after it as it, and any work it needed has obviously been done.
It’s done 105K and still going strong- just treated it to 4 new 145/70s. Would have thought that would be a sufficient Xmas present, but it now seems to have a small hole in the heater matrix- after endless air-locks in the system, it’s now losing water with no visible leaks, and the fan heater steams up the windows more than it de-mists them. Does anyone have any experience of this??
Best regards,
Helen
