Took a trip out to the lakes in Italy this week, wonderful time over there, On the way about I could NOT believe the amount of pandas that were about, I only managed to get a few photos but they were everywhere. Its sad, but it re-kindled my flagging passion















I currently have the crazy plan of flying over, buying one and driving it back......

Sounds like a sensible plan to me

Doesn't sound crazy at all.

always nice to know im not the only crazy in the room!

Do it!!!

Sometimes you've gotta look at yourself in the mirror and say...



"when in Rome"

Crazy, not to!

Or, when in Venice - pack vicks rub as it stinks... not quite at catchy though.

Better plan is for several of us to go and bring one back each - international buying convoy anyone?

really wish you hadn't posted that picture of the embossed tailgate

I'll have to buy one now :bang:

Better still buy a Peugeot/Citroen/Renault, get a few understanding friends on board, drive to Italy, dump the French car somewhere and drive four Panda's home.

You're assuming the French car would get to Italy without coming to a graceful halt at the side of the road with a mystery electrical issue...

I'll have you know a bloke at work bought a clio and it lasted a whole 23 days before the scrapman was called, you could easily get to france in 23 days!

On topic who was it on here that drove a 2 cyl panda all the way back from italy?

I'm in Rome right now... Hundreds around
If you go to autoscout24.it you find many starting at €300/400
You must pay for "passaggio di proprieta" that's around another €200/300 it's a fee the new owner need to pay but I don't know if you intend to export
May look into it if anyone is interested
