Skut Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Cheers Phil. Its been shit but I have the easier end of the bargain. Here's some up to date 'quality' pictures. Lighting not great but you get the general idea. Fit on the door is good, opens, shuts locks etc. Gaps and sealing look fine. Metal damage was mercifully limited to the door. Column seems to work fine although its lower set than the bus driver stance I would have expected from a Panda column. Its still within the limits of what was possible with the original setup. I reckon it feels more substantial than the adjustable item as they seem to get abit loose feeling with age. The only downside is the plastic cowl is wobbly as the captive nuts arnt present to fully secure it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barefoot Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I would say you've improved things as the steering column would never lock in place properly whilst it was in my tenure. Odd little thing and mentally quick for what it is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skut Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 So the little Monster is off to its new home. Id forgotten how fast it was. Shame the dashboard lights had a FTP and left me reliant on street lighting for fuel speed temperature readings. This it this afternoon after 98 point turn to get it out of storage.

philibusmo Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 This is now available for further shiters to borrow or buy permanently and is in the much easier to get to location of Durham! Its with a mate of mine who likes it a great deal, just sadly the other occupants of his house do not.Currently it will need an MOT end of next month which is a bit of a crapper but it's all taxed and ready to go for the moment and as it's still done fairly minimal milage i don't expect it will need much, if anything. Apparently it's still in much the same condition as it was in Skuts last posts. So options are, if you want to borrow it then make your way to Durham with £120 (which you'll then get back from.the next person who has it) and i'll put you in touch with Phil who currently has it. Alternatively turn up to Durham with £120 and take it off Phil's hands, then bank transfer me a further £480 and it's all yours to keep. I'll then get the V5c sorted in your name and everyone is a winner. To conclude up for loan again (£120 deposit) or for sale at £600.

philibusmo Posted April 20, 2017 Author Share Posted April 20, 2017 All good for a couple of weeks wait. I've let the current custodian know that I'm going to be unable to follow this up with any urgency on account of being in Vietnam for a couple of weeks but it will need to be gone in the vaguely near future.

For Fiats Sake Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Just seen this! I'm up for buying! Obvs Moog was in there first so I'll await on his news. Can collect immediately.

Burnside Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Hope this finds a good home after all the hard work that's been put in so far, looked at one over 10 years ago for £650 and it was a total shed sadly so I passed up on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Fiats Sake Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I collected the white hen this afternoon, lovely to do a collection northwards, great scenery, quiet roads, I'd like to retire up there*. Didn't take any pictures or do a pez shot. Car drove really well, picks up in 5th, car is low, stiff and feels very planted compared to the pandas. As it is now occupying the driveway spot vacated by the donor panda I took the liberty of covering it cuz neighbours. What they can't see they can't complain about - in theory. I will have a tinker, horn wasn't working so needs to be sorted for the mot next month and the brake warning light stays on. *subject to availability of 2 car garages and 6 car drives for £100k KruJoe, The Moog, Dick Longbridge and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skut Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Thats great news. With regards the horn id pop the horn push off and check the two contact springs are there. I was sure id put them back but now im having doubts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Fiats Sake Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Good stuff - I may need to pop over and have a fond fondle after work one day (I'm working in Greetland ATM). You'd be most welcome!Thats great news. With regards the horn id pop the horn push off and check the two contact springs are there. I was sure id put them back but now im having doubts.Yes, I'm familiar with that design, I have a autobianchi steering wheel on the 4x4 panda! It's a bit odd as the GTiE originally had a MOMO wheel! Is this still on the loan scheme? I'd love to have a little go at some stage. I intend to buy it (once Phil is back from darkest Vietnam), as the spares that come with it (once they can be liberated from storage) should help resurrect the one I have in the garage as well as being a helpful reference to what's duff on mine and causing it to lose power sporadically. I will put it back into "shitters circulation" once mine is back on the road so fear not, you'll all get a go eventually!
