Introduction
Good morning all,
Presenting a car some will be familiar with, Abby! She was named by my 7 year old daughter and it stuck. For a short time, belonged to Paula, Urchins wife, so I knew the car would be a good one (unlike the Stilo I bought last year).
She's a dynamic model with a few added extras: Skydome, Alloy wheels, roofbars, front foglights, rear mudflaps, netting in rear seat footwell for extra storage and rear Fiat sunblinds . Bought from Ilkeston with a stack of history and runs beautifully.:worship::worship:
A few bits need doing:
The pictures attached are from the autotrader website, the last 2 pictures were taken yesterday, both my Pandas together
My wife and I was searching through autotrader and eBay ads looking for another car (as we had both had it upto our eyeballs with the Stilo) and saw a very pretty blue panda. I clicked on it as its not often you see a skydome panda for sale and we both liked it. So I looked at the location and saw it was in Ilkeston. I thought it was the biggest coincidence seeing as that was where the grey panda came from, at this point it still didnt click that this was Paulas car until I looked at the pictures and saw the FiatForum sticker in the window. I checked in the classifieds ad on FF and the details were the same. Knowing how Richard took care of his cars, we both agreed that we were sick of the lemon we had bought before and I emailed the garage that same night. I booked my train ticket for the following day, went to Ilkeston and bought it!
