Hi all,
I bought my Panda at the end of last month from Walkers of Northallerton. A good two hours from my house but I was willing to travel to find the right car.
So far I really like it. Very chuckable and still returns fair mpg when it's being thrashed. I sold my Clio 197 F1 because I'm saving for a house deposit and the 26mpg I was getting commuting to work wasn't really sensible.
I've done a few small mods so far:
1) Uniroyal Rainsport 2s all round
2) Alpine head unit and amp, Kenwood underseat sub
3) Made sat nav and phone mounting places in the storage slot under the stereo
4) Silver indicator bulbs all round
5) Fiat OEM mats
To do:
1) The sub-£30 induction mod
2) Get the tracking done as it pulls slightly to the right
3) Fit some speakers. I bought some Alpine SXE-1725 that were described as 'direct fit'. They are direct fit in the same way that some size 12 boots are direct fit for a new born baby.
4) Get the windscreen replaced as I managed to put a big crack in it whilst either removing the windscreen wiper arms or the scuttle panel
I'm taking it to Curborough sprint course at the start of next month which I'm very excited about :slayer:
