ok, it looks good, and the numberplate might be worth something, but that aside, its too much money!

That's about the going rate for a decent Panda these days. I'd go over the old girl with a fine tooth comb and possibly have a haggle if I had the budget for another one. Too new for me but the car has plenty of things going for it both as a modern classic and potential investment.

Certainly nowhere near as overpriced as some on the market at the moment.

Well over priced for the poor presentation and number of pictures IMO.

I have contacted the vendor asking for more info and pictures.

I was thinking of a late model with a galvanised body and doors would cut down on restoration costs?

If I get any more info I'll post it on the forum

Why are all the Pandas for sale always so far away from me? (York)

Shells were never galvanised on UK mk2's iirc, only the doors on very late examples iirc.

OK, thanks for that info.

The 'net once again (but it could be my interpretation) gets it wrong!

I thought mk2's were galvanised.

Nope, if they were they would all be pretty much rust free.

A Panda has come up within an hours drive of me!

Going to kick the tyres this afternoon

It's a good job I'm brassic or else I'd probably just rock up and throw cash at the seller

I'll put my sensible head on - hang on - if I were sensible I wouldn't be getting excited about seeing a 20 year old tin box on wheels:devil:

:idea: Will post findings later.

Too many emoticons in this post?
