I spotted a dark blue V-reg (yes V!) Panda 4x4 at the dockyard in Devonport earlier today, and was wondering if anyone on here had one of these new-fangled posh pandas... Looked in really top nick from the glimpse i had of it, might go and see if its there again tomorrow...

Otherwise, my 4x4 is making progress, and just about ready for its first MOT in 6 or so years, I'll try and get some kind of pictures up by the weekend.
 
Yes, though only this summer before my final year at uni. I'm in the frigate complex at the moment, though might be moved on somewhere else soon...

Scrawled a quick note with the forum address on and stuck it under the wiper, so maybe they'll be on sometime... certainly the most upmarket panda in Britain I've seen, LHD, and a Trekking edition if memory serves correctly...and no rust at all.....

cheers, Mike
 
I had a seat marbella of which the 850cc engine died the death when the heater broke and pissed out all the water all over the road, next thing I knew the car was full of smoke! anyway, the bodywork was pefect.
My mate had a 1.1 panda which was a pile of rusty crap but the engine was mint so we put the engine in my marbella and it bloody flew! no bull but it left 1.4 novas eating dust the thing was so lightweight. it was a pain in the arse to do though as the exhaust was on the wrong side which took a bit of work, then the insurance company tried telling me i had a 'modified car' as if it was some sort of 1000 bhp skyline!
I got 110 mph out of it on a good day (speedo only goes to 100 but i was being chased by a car that had a bit more than that)

Dont know if anybody on here knows the newcastle area, but there is a steep bit of dual carriageway poast the angel of the north. it's not mega steep but it's the length that makes it one of those where you have to get enough speed at teh bottom and keep it on the bank, not many cars would pull away once on the steep part. Well my escort TD struggles with it but that panda would fly up it at 90 ! :slayer:

it was class but it had problems and got sold for £50 :(
