General Panda 169 Van parts

[Paulln]

Do Panda 169 van parts often come up for sale, or are the super rare and expensive?

Particularly the load divider/partition/bulkhead.

I need a small van for my dog and I've been looking at Corsas/Fiestas etc but I'd rather keep my Panda 4x4 (and weld the rear doors shut one day...)

Very rare over here. Few on Ebay.it last time I looked. I spent about 2 years looking without ever seeing anything in the UK.

As far as I know they were never sold in the UK

They were popular in France and Italy as there was a tax incentive

Floor pan was different so no idea if parts could even be swapped over

Insurance will probably alter

I believe there is a dog barrier as an optional extra

Should be too hard to do your own conversion

Plywood partition would be my first option. Each dog should really should have it's own appropriate size crate as they perform better in an accident.

The 2 crates I have are bigger than the interior space in the car. One is fixed and the other can be unbolted. I tried to assemble the second one inside the car, the length is fine but the height is too large. The fixed one won't fit through the boot aperture.

Someone asked for a similar thing some time ago. Can't find the thread now.

Here's the diagram with different options:

Not only, also Poland and Czechia. For the same reasons.
