Off Topic AI Stanford Hall Panda's

[Most Easterly Pandas]

Well I was genuinely surprised at how many mk1 Panda's there were on the FF stand at stanford this year! They all seemed to be in a fab condition and really stood out from the crowd. They're a credit to their owners

Also had a look at a few of the mk2's. Saw Grumbleweed, Panda Van from a distance, and Lewis 16v Panda

Ashame I didn't see an Selecta's though

I had mine with me on another stand, and thought the whole event was a good day out Was good to finally meet Fredie (Panda1408), Freebo and a few other members again

Here's me driving on the concours to collect a small award for our Selecta

Thanks to Paul Braham (Mehstg) for taking the pic

It was great to see a good turn out of panda's! I got all excited when I seen the mark one's coming up into the stand never seen one in the metal before

We couldn't take PH cause he was having a bit of a problem with his circulation but he's all fixed now get him home today!

Was a great day out, I had loads of fun helping out. The drive down was an adventure too, the satnav seemed to like all the back roads instead of the motorway and the 126 never missed a beat, great wee car that he is!

It was good to see grumbleweed and Andrew again and was nice to meet lewey and see his car (how much do I want an engine like his now ) Went over to speak to MEP a couple of times but he was always talking with someone else

All in all apart from the sunburn it was a great weekend

Don't think we'll be making Mitcar! It was a real long drive to Stanford and don't think I'd manage to find babysitters for another car show lol But we are defiantly gonna make Stanford a yearly thing!

Ah thats ashame. Gaydon maybe in September? Although its a similar distance.

The distance is the problem! It took us just over 8 hours the get home yesterday To do it we need to stay over 2 nights which makes it even more expensive! Maybe all our Scottish members should band together and get car transporter and split the cost of petrol etc

 

[Pandarus]

Well done on your award Jon, your Selecta looks amazing

I hope to be at Gaydon, may come up in the Sei Sporting but next year I hope to be doing the show scene in my little mark 1...:worship:

 

[cacciatore]

Yeah big shout out to all the panda owners for making the effort to Stanford hall, roll on gaydon for round 2! All the best, Norman

 

[panda1408]

Good to meet you aswell Jon, your Selecta looked immaculate. Infact all the Pandas looked great, first time I've seen a mk1 up close I think.

Unfortunately I wasn't supporting the Panda population this time though, but I think I'll be bringing my Sisley to MITCAR and Gaydon as our 500 developed a slipping clutch on the way home so that needs to be sorted before it goes anywhere else.

 

[Freebo]

I think that's Allen Fletchers lovely example :yum:.

 

[pandamonius_maximus]

Wow congrats jon on the award, and damn I am so sad I missed it this time. Only got the SEAT running at the moment and even that's not entirely healthy lol.

Maybe make Gaydon if things go to plan!

[Panda Van]

Had a fab day at Stanford, thanks to FF for making us Fiat Motor Clubbers feel so very welcome. It was so good to see all of the pandas together and great chatting to the owners.
Heres a few pics from the day:

Mystery panda parked on his own...

Not sure if this is bowing/preying to the panda or a close inspection ......:worship:
