Does anyone know if there are any dealers in the south with a Scicilian orange panda in stock? Would quite like to see one in the flesh before I choose colour! Thanks

The furthest South I can see one for sale on AutoTrader is Arbury Fiat in Walsall near Birmingham.

There may of course be a dealer further south with a customers car in a compound that you can look round the outside of though. Alternatively the Funky Orange colour used on the Fiat Qubo is very similar to that on the Panda so you could find one of them, if you get desperate.

Which part of the South are you in?

Hi Veggie girl (and I trust you are, btw )

I think Westover FIAT in Salisbury had one quite recently - maybe worth giving them a call to see if its still there?

Looks fantastic in orange

My car is in the isle of Wight!!

I got home yesterday afternoon to find an orange 4x4 park by my house.
I parked next to it (how sad is that!)

I had to do a drive by in the other car to get a photo as I'd feel a bit stupid if the owner saw me. Not everyone is as passionate over their cars like us lot.
The other day, I passed another white 4x4 panda in the lanes who stopped to let me pass, I waved to say thanks and compliment the identical car, zero came back, not even a smile

Anyway, the orange was fantastic, even though it was dirty.
I should have got orange, but my mrs put her fingers down her throat at it.
She clearly has no taste, but I already knew that as she married me!

I'll upload the pics in a mo.

I know that Wessex in Gloucester have a Sicillian Orange Trekking Multijet in the showroom because I had a look at it yesterday.

Lol, that's what happens moving from a 500 to a Panda! Fellow 500 drivers used to wave back, but Panda drivers...not a chance.

No idea why. Here in Devon, the average age of a Panda driver seems to be about 137, so maybe they are spending all their time concentrating on the road ahead....

(edit: before anyone has a go, this is just a JOKE by the way!!!)

Actually I am 137 and find if I drive everywhere in first I don't have to bother with all that difficult gear changing .
NB I could not cope with living in Devon which sounds far too busy busy for me.
Regards

Thanks all...went to see the Salisbury Fiat one today and have a test drive. Really enjoyed it and yes it looks fab in orange. . Only downside is having a sell my lovely 1.2 dynamic

Can someone please post some photos of an orange panda, 4x4 would be even better.

Interior photos too, if possible.

Do you prefer orange interior, or maybe being orange on the outside is enough?


Thanks in advance.

Its got to be pumpkin interior with Sicilian orange!! I think it looks great

Thanks deeyup, I had not seen your gallery because I was looking at the "Members Motors" list.

How do you find the orange interior? Did you consider grey (or whatever) color interior at all?

Great pics, plus all the extras of this model, thanks again!

Even more pics, thanks guys.

I do like the orange color very much on the outside, only having some thoughts about the orange "pumpkin" interior.

The only other option with an orange car is sand/charcoal and I think it looks a bit bland...... Personal preference of course....

I see, this is your car triumph7, thanks then to you again for these splendid pics!


I agree that the other color option for the interior is not as good, to be honest I really like the green model interior, but the orange exterior looks best for me by far, so I might as well go for pumpkin all the way.

Good choice! You will certainly notice how dull other cars look: most are grey, silver, black or blue!
