... so does anybody know what colours are replacing the ones being dropped ? Is there still going to be a green at all ? i think the car would also suit a paler shade of green but i guess until you see it on the car it would be impossible to judge.

General Which Panda 4x4?

The original Panda 4x4 came in a pale camouflage green that suited it very well - I wish I still had mine!

I was a total dieselhead until I tried the Twinair- my previous four cars were
all diesels, the last being an Alfa Mito 1.3 Multijet. But I find the TA much
more fun, a bit faster, and (with careful driving...) almost as economical
(My Panda Trekking's now averaging about 58MPG)
I reckon small turbo petrol engines are the way to go, though it is harder
to get near the 'official' fuel consumption figures, it's fun trying

Nippy yes, responsive yes, but why does it have to be so damned noisy?!!

My 4x4's in Tuscan Green and I suspect it's the best colour. Having said that, I've had 131 Mirafiori Sport, Ritmo Abarth 130TC, Uno Turbo ie and Panda 100HP in what I call gunmetal - Electroclash/metallic dark grey - and I'd love to have a Panda 4x4 in it.
Yeah I do like it in Tuscan green but I really don't like the green dash green seats green door trim.....

(Had to go out to garage to check but) mine has beige/clotted cream door trims, dash, tops and bolsters of seats, headrests.
Oh yes, sorry.....my mistake you're right! Its the green dash I wasn't that keen on in the demo I drove. Also I thought I'd get the light faux leather grubby in no time! LoL

Do you have the penguin on the side? That's the main thing..
Ralf S..
Anyone who has a penguin on the side needs to speak to a therapist.
Alternatively, anyone who has issues with a penguin being on the side needs to speak to a therapist.
Either way, I can help, at very reasonable rates!
I quite like the penguins by the way & feel they are part of the car's spec and need to be left alone - on the other hand, I'm not sure I'd want to drive a car with penguins on it! Therapist again I guess.....

Penguins firmly in place and no therapist required thank you.
Yeah, I'd keep the penguins!

Let's look at this from the penguin's angle - it's all very well being a bit on the side, but what happens when a tasty looking seal happens along? And are inter-species relationships likely to last or will the penguin always be on the side?
Lol...the most serious debate in this Panda section has always been "avec penguins" or "sans penguins" with the 4x4 Antartica!
I am firmly in the "for" camp. In fact, my wife actually thought the Antartica (with penguins of course) was "not bad". She also said that it would be "stupid" for us to get a 4x4 though as we don't need one - can't argue with that!

Also, don't forget that penguins are gregarious creatures-there really
ought to be more than one on each side
