  1. I thought there was the 25 year law, does seem strange that the R33 can be imported then!

    Pandino (my red Panda 1000) met Huey and PG Tips the other day. I'm doing work experience with someone that restores these Fiat Pandas. Huey is the 4x4 in the middle, also a 1000 engine, with all new bells and whistles for off road action! PG Tips is on the left and is a customer car, it's the only mk1 4x4 Sport in the UK, with one owner from new. Original 965 engine, and it's seen a lot, but it's still as awesome as ever! It was great to have the three together :)

  13. Haven't posted here for a while! Wheels are lacquered as well but I have no money for tyres, especially as I bought another Panda - a 4x4 Sisley (on April fool's day of all days) ;)

    Look at the collection now!


    It'll be used for what it was made for...

  15. Behold the wonderful DAF 400 I bought with a friend of mine. We've converted it to a camper and are planning to do our graduation thesis/research with it across Europe! :D
  16. Welcome to the UK, where tyres is tyres for cars and tires is tires as in tires you out - which is how it should be ;) It's definitely tyres here :D

    The black Panda was a scrap car and is due to be sold very soon so I don't tend to count that, my red one is my show car/daily (28k miles) and the 4x4 is the project that I use for off road and for fun recreational use. These cars cost a fraction that most cars do, especially new ones so having two is great fun :)

    I like to think of it as... why the hell DON'T you need 3 Pandas ;)

    That's pretty cool haha, our local race circuit has a V8 DAF ambulance that looks like that. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it, keep us updated!
  17. Got this car just over a month ago, love it!


    It's the Vauxhall Astra ecoFLEX SRi, 2016 model.

    (@Fendy, finally a car I actually own ;))
