General Next Panda Adventure......

[JimMagill]

those are maximum and minum figures and I've been there twice and it never went above 45....

Thou knowing my luck we'll be there in a heat wave

We have to cross the Mojave desert to get from Denver (which is over 3000ft above sea level) to LA so it would be a shame to miss out on 'Stove Pipe Wells', 'The Devils Cauldron' and 'Furnace Creek'!!!

Panda Disguised.... As a panda??

Are you going to the Lassen volcano national park too? (beautiful but strange landscape).

[christopher watson]

Here is the route that i would recommend....

New York, Washington, Buffalo, Toronto (through London ), Detroit, Chicago, Omaha, Denver, Salt Lake City, Las Vegas, Phoenix, California, (next bit is an option) - Portland, Seattle, Calgary (yes i am taking this into Canada ), Winnipeg, Minnetonka Beach (wonderful driving roads around the lake), Minneapolis (i wonder if they will allow a panda on the race track :chin: ), and try to take in Indianapolis on the way back. I Have given this route as it will give you the best driving route, and the least trouble from red necks. This is the route i would have loved to do, but cant afford it yet (maybe in the future).

As Blue eyes said.... 'I did it my wayyyyyyyyy'

Anyway, What about this look for the intercontental panda?

Them's lancia colours

 

[Steven]

Look in my profile, I have the AliItalia Panda as my picture in there. I'd love to build a replica. Like Alan I'm not sure about the Martini colours though.

 

[Stuartl]

You Pay for it and I'll do it, the Alitalia one that is. Lancia has standards to keep up.

 

[Steven]

I think having an Aliitalia 750 might be taking the **** a bit.

 

[JimMagill]

I think the lancia colours work really well on the panda as both cars are very boxy but we'd loose the Lancia badges/Martini and replace them with NIIMC or Mervyn Stewarts. If we kept the same script it would look fantastic!

Fiat? Lancia? It's all italian...

Jim

 

[christopher watson]

What about an Abarth colour scheme?

 

[JimMagill]

I'm not having crabs all over the car!!!

(yeah, I know there scorpions but I'm not driving across the states explaining that to every person I meet.....:bang: )

I would love an alitalia panda... it looks so right.

 

[JimMagill]

Stu is going with the alitalia and Alan likes it (he's a mad plane fan) but they'll be no gold wheels!!!!

:yuck:

HaHA once the cars in my garage it'll be any colour I take a fit to spray. The wheels aren't gold they're off yellow. I have the paint code for just such an occassion. Jim we have to have room as well for the Flu guys cause they are sending me over stickers and maps for you and the car. The maps are for you BTW.

I'll be taking my sat nav with me

Anyway, White is going to look so much better for the wheels (trims) and much more sporting. Or do I have to get Trinny and Suzanna on the phone to you?

Who's got photoshop and thinks they can try putting this onto Sylvia???

Jim

 

[Steven]

Jim, how much will that cost? Anyway, I wanted to do that someday.

Do you not need a white car first???

Stu has given me a price which I think is worth it... We're going a long way and it's going to be seen by a lot of people so we may as well make it something to look at

I've approaced CPW for a bit of sponorship this year so it might have some Blue CPW logos on it....

[JimMagill]

And the problem with graphics are that there's lots of opportunity for it to go horribly wrong....

I'm only messing, go for it Jim.
