motorpunk Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 Thanks for charging the title Mrs6c. I thought I’d paid £8 a ticket, and had two, but it seems it’s a £12 panda as it was only £6 a ticket! 😁 mitsisigma01, Jim Bell and mercedade 3
Shite Ron Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 This is a great thread and a really nice picture above. Panda’s are great cars and yours is a very nice colour and spec. It is great to see that your daughter appreciates it, couldn’t have gone to a better home. SmokinWaffle, mercedade and motorpunk 3

motorpunk Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 37k on the clock as of today. Also, the wrong time and date because Italian car. Daughter loves it. Still hasn’t passed her test thanks to arsehole bots and waiting lists. AnnoyingPentium, Jim Bell, Shite Ron and 3 others 6
motorpunk Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 Still no bloody driving test, but it’s coming soon. MOT due soon. It has that intermittent thing that all Pandas have; ‘steering fail’ warning light occasionally comes on after a long drive, new battery, alternator and even a replaced ePAS column off another car and it still comes on. Have learned to ignore it and just enjoy an otherwise perfect like car. Today it got added BHPs from this sticker. BeEP, AnnoyingPentium, Pat Earrings and 1 other 4
RoverFolkUs Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 Usually the best thing for Fiat ePAS lights is to keep using them! We used to have a Punto as a courtesy car and as long as it was kept in regular use the light stayed off 😅 motorpunk 1
motorpunk Posted March 2, 2023 Posted March 2, 2023 Ready for a potentially confusing Panda update? Here we go… I own this. It’s not a Panda but got me into cheap old Italian cars. Some years ago daughter 2 wanted a cheap and cheerful car, so we picked up this, for £725, on 80k miles. that’s a pic from this week, it was clean and lovely when we got it, but she did about 30k miles with minimal maintenance and it’s been ace. Only needed a clutch and exhaust. And then… rust. and so it failed the MOT on rotten sills and some other less-messy bits. So we sold it to @red5this week and the very friendly @Lord Sterlingcollected it. Off to be used for trainee spanner people to practice on. I would have gotten more for scrapping it (£285! Wow!) but wanted to give it a fighting chance of living on. So, daughter 2 now has no car. Daughter 3 is STILL waiting for a driving test and owns the car below, which I won in a ROFL off the very helpful @SmokinWaffle. It’s an Eleganza which means climate control and nice wheels. Low mileage and lovely. Daughter 3 cherishes this car and is really into cars in general. so daughter 2 (who treats cars appallingly, it must be said), has hassled her younger sister (daughter 3) to borrow her nice car until she can find a new one… Which I just stuck a deposit on. It’s another blue Panda, owned from new by a Fiat nut who also has an 850 Coupe (❤️) and has really looked after it. 100k on the clock but pretty tidy and a nice low price. Here it is. This panda merry-go-round will confuse the hell out of the neighbours. I just hope daughter 2 doesn’t crash daughter 3s eleganza before we collect her dynamic (above). It’s still on the original aircon gas and it all still works, incredible thing! And I’m not quite done with pandas…. I scrounged this 100hp recently to make a feature on them for ClassicRetroModern mag. I nearly bought it… Daughter 1? She went French instead of Italian and regretted it. Now pestering me for a loan of my Elise…. 😂 mk2_craig, Blake's Den, loserone and 12 others 14 1
