Find a MkI brochure and get her sprayed an original colour for authenticity :)

:) Jim was right PINK is the way forward !! of course an original colour would be good BUT if you're keeping the car on the road and looking it's best then this shouldn't put you off going for something different :) good luck (y)

It's a MK1. These are now extremely rare, and to have it in a garish flip colour would be atrocious behaviour I'm afraid. Keep it respectable and faithful to the original colour list. Well that's what I'd do in your shoes anyway...

Iv jus bought myself a '94 panda 1000 injection, (full service history, 1 owner, <30,000 miles, a bargain at £200) an i was thinking of possibly respraying it and replacing the interior. For the moment at least its staying how it is and i am basking in the glory that is my 12 year old panda fizz!

Why? From your description, the car sounds like an absolute belter. To us on here, and most other sane people on this planet, a gleaming, unmolested Panda can be picked out from a mile off. Proof of this can be found in my Public Pandas thread. Check out the red one.

Hopefully, "for the moment" will mean forever. :)
