OK folks.
Most Easterly Panda's inspired me to go out scrap yard hunting today down in South London.
To my amazement I found not 1, not 2, not 3, but at least 4 Panda's in a FIAT dismantlers.
Firstly, an immacuate Black Selecta L reg 1108cc with un rusty, yes UN rusty doors, good bonnet, front wings and what appears to be a brand new un marked bumper
She has the 'posh' looking brown stripey interior
, Cinq 2-spoke wheel and also a complete selecta surround (including the P R N D L illuminated bit) Was running when it went in the yard a few weeks ago. The bloke wants £30.00 per complete door, which is a bit steep but trust me they are worth it.Nearly bought them myself, but Mandapanda's doors are also rust free. I could, possibly get them and bring them to the Southern Panda meet if some one really, really needs them that badly.
Secondly a white Dance, thridly a tatty Metallic Greeny Selecta, and a faded red Panda. To be honest I was so excited by the Black Selecta find I didn't take much notice of the others. The panels are as clean as Mandapanda.
I managed to find an undamaged rear parcel shelf for £10.00, which I don't even know if I want, but I got it any way as it was too good to miss and is as rare as hen's teeth. I may put it on e-bay but I will put it on the Forum Classifieds first to give you guy's and girls first refusal. Not looking to make loads on it, if I can get my £10.00 back I'll be chuffed.
I am not going to put the where abouts of this yard for general viewing (as it's hard enough as it is to get decent Panda parts) - If you would like the address and number then PM me and I'll happily let you have the details. That way Forum members know about it first.
All in all a great find - and Mandapanda's heather started working again today so double bonus all round.
