please dont do it!! , poor poor panda

Ok people!

Lets keep the eace:

I bet it's a Panda that wins!

If I had to make that Journey - I'd want to do it in a Panda!

Ac tually - I might take Flash next year..............:chin:

I totally understand that rocking horse poop is more common than 4x4's these days but at least hes going to spend maybe the best/most memorable time of his life driving such a car, good way to remember it, imo.

I totally disagree with the other chap doing a panda rally on the other thread who kinda introduced himself by saying:-
"Im doing a 8000 mile rally so ive tried to find ****est car ever! a panda 4x4"

So come on Fiat enthusiasts at least be enthusiastic.

I agree that if your going to do a rally like this, what better way to do it! Panda's make even the smallest trips an adventure, just imagine going that far! I would love to do it some day, but tbh i would like to do the impossible and drive it back aswell! Time and money are the limiting factors atm, patience shall provail!
Best of luck to you, try and get that panda there in one piece now, and give it a good home if you can. I admire what your doing for charity, uv got the right attitude towards it aswell, not like the c**k who said that the 4x4 panda is the ****test car he could think of! I aint wishing luck to that kinda attitude. All the best!
Cheers

My mum saw these guys fund-raising in Scarborough.

Good on them I say. As for it being rare - 1000 left on the roads today? Tipo Sedicivalvole only had 500 brought into the country over 12 years ago.. probably less than 100 left now. Now they're a rare Fiat which should be preserved!

true, but nobody is taking one to Mongolia are they

They do silly things and have them written off though.. Least it would still be driving about if it was in Mongolia...

until it broke down a little while later because its probably had bodged repairs on the way over there

Then they will join FiatForum to find out how to fix it

I'm not really convinced by the it's so rare it must be saved argument, and if someone seriously believed that then buy the thing off them. They only expect to raise 3 grand, offer to pat the charity 3001 and they should have a moral obligation to take it.

However I also fail to see what use a Panda 4 X4 is out there, presumably it'll be as rare a rocking horse S**t, no-one can fix it, there are no spares it isn't big enough to earn money as a Taxi or take the harvest to market. If they seriously want to help take a Toyata Hi lux pickup, that's an object of desire!
