Hi. My new Panda Cross has a capless fuel filler. There is no lock on the fuel flap either. So in theory the car is at risk of vandals contaminating the fuel (I appreciate the filler mechanism should prevent access by anything other than the correct-sized nozzle but I'm not entirely convinced).
Also I'm concerned that water and/or dust could get in to the tank. I understand that some earlier models may have been fitted with a dust cap attached to the inside of the flap - mine isn't as the photo hopefully demonstrates.
My questions are...
1. Is it correct that my car doesn't have a dust cap? It's a 69 reg twin air Cross.
2. What is the risk of water and/or dust being able to penetrate the capless filler system - particularly as the car gets older?
3. Is it possible to fit a lockable fuel cap? If so, would appreciate details.
Many thanks in advance.
