Hello. I'm considering raising my panda (amongst other things) because I want to take part in the panda raid next year and would like to make the mods to the car during this summer so I don't have to do it during the winter (swedish winter).

But I can't really decide if I want to raise it 3 or 5 cm. The thing is, this is my daily driver and so I really want to get the best of both worlds, some more ground clearance but not having the car behaving like on stilts on the road.

Also one thing to consider is modifications required. I read an old thread where I think they raised it with 5 or 6 cm and had to make new hand brake attachments and mods to the engine protection frame. Those kinds of mods I don't want to do. Would these things need to be done with a 5cm kit?

I come here to get input from guys that have more experience with these things. Additional input on off road mods also welcome.

Thanks.
