Petel, I've said it before and I'll say it again... you are a walking encyclopedia of Panda facts! A legend!

Fiat also supported the 'madagascar appeal' and saving the red panda................ive got a promo floppy record, with David Belamy doing some kind of comentary on panda's etc.........

Ah, presumably that explains why there was a "Madagascar" edition of the 4x4. (On my V5 it's described as a "Fiat Panda Madagascar Pick-up").

Had a quick dig about, heres the square floppy record !!

 

[Most Easterly Pandas]

Wow! I never knew there was so much history behind the Panda name.

I'm surprised this sort of info hasn't been put on wikipedia by someone.
