Hi, i'm hoping to buy a panda tomorrow. 04 reg, dynamic, turquoise with skydome, has 95k on but is only £700.
A general question - do the heaters generally take a while to warm up or would this be an indication of a bigger problem? I only had 5 mins to let the car warm up, and the heaters only got vaguely warm. I used to have a car that did this and it was indication of head gasket failure.
Also what are the service intervals on these? It doesnt have much history with it but im happy to service it myself, is it a fairly easy car to work on? Can i expect any other big issues with a panda of this age? Timing belt maybe? How much is that sort of thing going to set me back? Cheers
