Yes you can.

As for the cross having 160mm extra, it's not extra, it's just plain 160mm clearance.
It gains 10mm over the regular 4x4 and it's gained entirely by fitting slightly larger tyres 185/65/15 for the cross, 175/65/15 standard.
I'd like to have a look at the raising kit myself. The previous model 4x4 had more clearance than the current model, and the raising kit for that gets you up to around 220mm. That would be awesome.
I've banged the belly of mine twice now, so more ride height would be great.
Anyone up for doing a group buy on the lift kit?

Ah that makes more sense.
So fitting 185/65/15 tyres plus that lift kit will give you an extra 25mm, that's sounding more worthwhile.
I'd be interested in the kit as it seems to take the height up to the mk3....
Ha3 yes! I need more height if I'm gonna do it again. Was pretty unimpressed with its off-roading abilities if I'm honest
I wouldn't be too hard on your Panda triumph7. Apart from the clearance issues, it's your tyres that are the problem.
If you put on an aggressive mud pattern the difference would be like night and day.
What we need now is babbo_umbro to call the Suspension lift supplier next time he's in Italy. Their web site says they only supply to authorised garages who supply and fit. The price of the lift kit is pretty reasonable at €170 fitted.
We just need to see if they will supply the parts only to the UK?
I may just try and google translate an email to them to see if they will sell direct to us.

Yes, I didn't mean to come across so critical. I did mean ground clearance which isn't really good enough. The electronic aids & eld are brilliant....yes the tyres are a compromise......it does seem daft do give less ground clearance
My only concern with the lift kit is mucking up the brill on-road ride & handling
