Do up? You can buy really nice ones from £21.

Go for it. Restore it to factory standard and you'll have a classic on your hands in a few short years!

I belive you're right. But why renovate? Buy 6 now in good or bad condition- store in a barn- then sell as good £5-600, or renovation projects for £300 in 3 years time. Happened to Minors, Marinaa and others!

Unfortunately, unlike Marinas, Minors and Crayford Wolseley Hornets (I would love one of those) the Pandas are likely to be just a pile of rust in three years time.

I love Pandas but they need TLC all the time.

Somewhere in my archives, Practical Classics magazine (in an issue around 1994 or 5) suggests a Panda as a future classic!

It will be a future classic. No doubt about that at all.
