Left my fuel cap on the pumps, bought a temporary one then found out the panda is one of about 4 cars ever produced that it doesn't fit!

So, looking for a replacement. Anyone got one they can part with for a few quid?

Thanks
Ben
 
Yeah. I tried one of the locking replacement fuel caps aswell as i didnt like the fact that anyone could get into my fuel tank, but was crap as it didnt screw in properly. I had to put the old one back on. I dont have one you can have though, but you can put the replcement one on temporarily i wouldve thought. Mine stayed on ok.

I'm not sure, on the packaging it says 'not suitable for fiat pandas'. Its one with that swirl of plastic fins on the back and the opening isnt circular. Guess thats why its not suitable

Just got a plastic bag screwed up and shoved in the hole for now
 
This is the one i got. It does screw on, but the thread is wrong. It has a thick rubbery thread, and the thread on the car is fine thread. Ok for an emergency, but if i can find one with the right thread, then bombs away!
Hope this helps in your choice!

Cheers
Si
