A nice one for a collector...especially if it has the 2000 TC!  :)

A series 3 Panorama super.

I had one of these once but had to scrap it. Mechanically it was spot on but the body was a rot box, it had been 'repaired' previously badly and the interior was knackered too.

it was a shame as I really did want an estate but it was never going to be a useable car when I jacked it up it bent like a banana it was that rotten :o

It is a great looking car and the colour is 2nd only to Mid Met Blue for a S3 Super.

Brings back memories of the greatest 131 i ever had  :'(
I surely hope this one will find a new owner who will treat it with respect. Panorama's are getting so rare.

Looking nice, but it seems to be LPG converted acording to the blanking plug in the rear bumper.
It?s a nice thing for consumption but all LPG cars I have seen or worked on had a problem. Sooner or later they start to eat oil and then die. Doesn?t fancy these conversions.

Hey wak131,

You're right. That's not a good thing. Here in Holland we say: Don't drive your car on gas, just cook on it  :D
There are so many negatives comparing to positives on driving your 131 on LPG. Take it out asap. I'm sure not everybody agrees with me, but i also noticed nothing but trouble with converted wonderflowers. :-\

Rubbish. I've been running my car on gas for 5 years without issues. No negatives.
