Hi all,
Come across here from Panda forum as now got a 500 Lounge in the fleet.
OH got a 17 plate TA Cross, had 07 Plate 4x4 and 3 x Mk2 Panda 4x4s in the past.
Thanks to the forum for the buyers guide info, really useful to review on my search for daughter 500.
Ended up with a white 500 1.2 Lounge with 45K on the clock.
Any advice as i will be getting under the car and "fettling" it before she drives it too far just to satisfy myself everything ok.
Its got a 12 month MOT and service history but not yet got cambelt and water pumop change - so they will be done soon.
Looking at :-
Strip rear drum brakes ( its been a while since i messed with drums !!!)
Check rear beam axle for corrosion
Check scuttle drains are all clear
Check wiring in tailgate
Check clean order covers foe front suspension struts (yep they are rusty S$%t design)
New discs and pads
Owt else to prep to make life easier in the long run ?
Know my way around the panda but 500 new to me.
Cheers for any inputs
