Panda 07 4x4 Panda

[AAB1992]

It’s very much blue! It’s called surf azure blue

 

[Kronkron]

Blue, definitely blue.

Maybe someone is viewing it through rose-tinted glasses!

I will be showing Mrs Mire Mare the support for the colour being blue!

Lilac is a light purple. Purple contains red. That blue has no red in it. Sorted.

 

[PandaMambo]

Definitely looks better with roof rails!

I think this is Azure Frizzante - might be a sticker on inside of boot lid giving colour in Italian. My "mambo yellow" panda was properly Giallo Ottimista - which sounds much nicer!

Cheers!
To me it looks like 'blueish'
I thought roof rails were standard on 4x4's in 2006-07 ? Mine has them too but I just bought it, history is hidden.

Hey Hotcliff! I think you're right, they were standard fitment. I guess they were removed by someone before I bought the car

Have you posted a pic of your Panda on the forum somewhere?

Mire Mare,
Here are some pics of my "Black Beauty" , 2005 Fiat Panda 4x4
I recently had to replace the propshaft and main bearing but found a new at Autodoc in Germany, quite good price too.

I've always liked the look of the Panda and especially the 4x4 models. I posted a couple picture of my relatively newly acquired Panda in my 'hello' thread but I thought I'd post here too as I've now added roof rails For me the 4x4 looked like it needed them so I'm happy to have found and installed a pair.

One question though, more of a semantic debate(!), is it blue or is it lilac? This has been a topic of discussion during journeys!

Looks nice, definitely better with the bars on the roof and I reckon it's more blue than lilac.

yes its very blue, well under the dirt it is
as above, mine already had roof rails, now has matching (ish) blue side repeaters

I thought I'd update my Panda thread after doing a couple of jobs.

Job one: Replacing the exhaust. This Panda seemed to have had a bodged exhaust job before I bought it. The exhaust hung very low - looked like it would clatter off speed bumps and was about to fall off at any moment, as many a friend told me after driving behind me! This exhaust stayed on for 18 months before shearing in front of the rear silencer just before lockdown in March this year. The Panda wasn't getting used so was parked up for a most of spring & summer.

After a good bit of shopping around I decided to get a stainless exhaust made by a local guy. I’m more than happy - it looks pretty standard and isn’t offensively loud sounding.

Job two: Fiat Forum Sticker on the rear window. Hard to see, I didn’t realise the blue was so dark, but it’s there!
