Hi

The vinyl . plastic floor in Beswick my Panda Colour (1994 M plate) is looking a bit tatty, does anyone know where I might get another from?

I am between York / Leeds

Cheers
Andy

If you want a new one: eBay.it may be your best bet; although they occasionally turn up on eBay.de, as well. Otherwise, have a look at the sticky with the list of suppliers on it. Going to FIAT may well be the easiest route... -- but will probably turn out to be the most expensive....

Second-hand: the websites that you type your details in to, and they contact loads of scrappies on your behalf, may be the best bet; or someone may even have one in a garage somewhere.... Maybe post a wanted ad in the Classifieds section...?

Not sure if the rubber floor has a heel pad under the drivers feet, but buying one from abroad will probably mean this is on the wrong side if they do have one.

The rubber floor in my 1995 colour doesn't have a heel mat made into it. I really can't see these being readily available abroad like the carpets though? I know the fizz has the rubber floor as does the colour but not many of either models around. There was a really rough red colour up for sale about 6 months or so ago on the forum ( think it was in Liverpool ) and the guy who bought it was going to use it for his son to learn to drive in. You might be able to search and find him and have his floor if its any good. Didn't sound like he was going to be restoring it!

There was a 750 floor for sale (in rubber), recently (on either the Italian or German eBays...) -- which, I must admit, I was tempted by.... Don't know how different this would be....

Hi,

Yes, I had already looked on Ebay.it, never thought of Germany etc etc. Thank you all for your time

Good luck; and if you find one, please let us know...!

Just found this....

If you look/search through the store, there seem to be several variants for sale. I found the above whilst searching for "Panda 750"...!

I've emailed him(?) before -- and I'm pretty sure VmanC has dealt with him, as well... -- and his English is pretty good. Way better than my Italian, that's for sure! He also replies really quickly...!

I'm breaking a Colour so can have a look at the condition of mine for you if s/h is ok?

Why are you breaking the Colour Vernon, is it too far gone? What colour Colour is it?
If it has the old style grey steering wheel I might be interested. My one has the dreaded splits top and bottom

Sorry for the delayed reply Jamie, only just catching up with Forum stuff. Phew!

Yeah it is to far gone really, plus it has so many useful parts on it that can make other Pandas lovely it was the best thing to do overall.

It's a blue Colour same colour as Pickle. The steering wheel in it is black though so I think it must have been replaced by a previous owner.

Floor covering looks to be good though alfa115spider if you can't find a new one.

Hi Vmanc

How much? Will it post ( doubt it will fly, as its not a magic carpet - groan)

The car is full of stuff so it's not all visible. Let me remove it next week to assess it properly and I'll PM you condition and price inculuding p&p.

Ok, here's a pic of what I have..........

Hmm, signal not strong enough, will try again later.

Try again.........

Funny, it looks more like an African mask to me.
Eyes, nose and round face.
It could even be Jeremy Clarkson,

Hi VmanC

The floor arrived today. Absolutely spot on! Much obliged indeed!
