Default PANDA POWER REAR ENGINED probaly going to sell the panda any one intrested???????????
ok not many people like this car and yes befor you say it some one has cut the roof off but i picked it up owing me about £600 so cant be all bad my planes so far are to get it running (not on mfi i mite add) fined a roof tidy it up a bit and go from there at some stage im going to extent the caged bit at the back to add a bit more structial strenth as it is a panda

Awww that car brings back memories. The roof came off with and angle grinder till they ran out of discs. Then they used air tin snips and hacked it off. Took 5 people nearly 2 hours if i remember correctly to get the roof off.
