Not so entertaining as Giacosa's 'Skioffi Panda' and very grim viewing especially if you lived in Sheffield in '84, but my eagle eye spotted a quick glimpse of a red mark 1 Panda very quickly at 8:12.

My 1990 Panda came from Sheffield so it must still be standing.

Maybe due to their relative simplicity Pandas would survive a nuclear war.:D
 
Kuba Łubniewski, young and talented polish filmmaker, was on holidays on Sicily two years ago. He discovered Pandas there. And decided to make a documentary about Pandas, Sicily, and Sicilians(y) Movie should be ready in 2018 (fingers crossed), but there's already a trailer: [ame]https://vimeo.com/202747287[/ame]

what a beautiful piece of film. Maybe I will make a documentary someday
 
I realise I'm resurrecting an ancient thread with this - and it may have already been mentioned elsewhere in the forum (apologies if it has) but nevermind!

Has/Is anyone watched/watching the BBC series called 'Strike' - about the Cormoran Strike, one-legged private-eye?
Actually I'm really enjoying it which is quite something considering its a BBC production.

Anyway, in the episode I watched last night, there was a white FIAT Panda, (reg WT16 VHF) that I think has the name of a (probably ficticious) hire company along the side of it.
The driver is in a hurry to catch a train but a broken down lorry is holding up the traffic.

The driver of the FIAT decides she can't wait, and does a little bit of off-roading across a field and through a wood to get around the roadblock - all very dramatic. I have no idea if this was a 4x4 or not, but I thought it quite a good advert for the Panda! :)

I looked up the reg on DVLA out of curiosity (I do this for a lot of vehicle reg's on old black and white films to see if any of the old cars have survived :cool:) and the car reg indeed comes up as a FIAT, but is listed as green :confused:
