Hi, i'm looking to buy an 04 reg 1.2 dynamic panda tomorrow. Its cheap at £700 it has 95k on the clock, limited service history but just flown through its mot no issues and runs fine.
I just have a few questions i hope you can help with:
After running the car for approx 5 mins, gave it a quick spin, the heaters didnt seem to warm up much. Apparently the car has been sat for a couple of months. Do the heaters generally take a while to kick in or is this showing a deeper issue perhaps?
With limited history i would look to service the car myself - is the engine easy enough to work on? And what are the normal service intervals? When should i expect to be replacing the timing belt and what sort of cost is that going to entail?
If theres any other issues i should be looking for on a panda of this age/mileage please let me know. Cheers and hope to be a making a more regular appearance on here soon
