Next time someone strips a marbella for parts, could they save the leaf springs.

I cant even find a panda to strip to get some, (joke) dont need the hate mail etc.

If you're thinking of using Marbella leafsprings on a 4x4, please forget it.
They are only suitable for an original Mk I:(
 
I'll take bets that the intermediate spring has snapped just behind the clamp on the o/s unit.

offers?:)

mine got very week and i tought they had cracked but the retainer bracket had moved so the springs were weaker? might be worth a closer look
 
The place the spring broke is on the curl at the rear of the drivers side the place where the bush goes through.

The car is still running but it needs a fresh spring,

Now for the bite my car is a 94 Marbella 2x2 not 4x4 i wish it was those springs i can get.

I follow the threads with enthusiasm having owned and run a 750 fire engine Panda a 1.1 Uno then up to an 899 Cinq,I had to start looking for a replacement for the Cinq
A local garage had the Marbella for sale, took it out for a run liked it and bought it its run like a dream for 6 months now ,The spring doesnt affect
the way it drives its in use every day just about anything pertaining to the Panda pertains to my car ,cept im not about to take mine to Africa.

Oh and the cars above where owned over a period of time not all at once




Thanks for listening/reading while an old man rambles on
