Tuning Davidoff's Panda

[aussiepanda]

Yes, racing stripes make any Panda faster.

That's a nice look, sets off the black beautifully.

 

[aussiepanda]

That may not be a bad idea!
Definitely like the stripes on yours, they must at least add a couple of mp/h

Thanks. Even the ladies at work like them and, being a bachelor, I'll take any feminine approval I can get

 

[The Pretender]

A Panda will always attracts female attention.
And i think mostly it's the better kind of female's, you don't have to worry about potential Golddiggers.

in photos the car does not seem very low because it is on a sloping street..
as soon as I have time I do them on flat..

I still wonder if the rear will squad more in due time.
The lack of weight at the back will not help with that any time soon, because i never carry any weight around, back there.
Need some sand for the garden in the spring, maybe i will put it in the boot and leave it in there for a week while driving around.

Friend of mine drove around with 4 25kg bags of gravelin the back for a week or two witch did help the back to come down a bit (he also has the Novitec springs) so you might give it a try. Maybe take some pictures with a ruler to see if it actualy works

I would need at least 10 bags 25 Kg sand, so i will put i little bit more weight in the boot.

Nice wheel but I wouldn't go for a 14 inch wheel. Since you lowered the car I figure you are looking for sportier handling and lower tires play a big role in that. With the 14" 's you need quite a high tire wich is great for comfort but not for sharper handling.

He has already 14" tires, he only change steel for LM this way.
On that wheel site, there are a lot of interesting Fiat 15" wheel solutions.

I realise that but this would be a bit of a sideways upgrade. I personally would rather wait and maybe save some more or look to the secondhand market so you can get a real upgrade that at least changes the way the car feels and looks. In the mean time just enjoy the current set up and wear the current tires out.

I actually think it looks great on the exposed steel wheels

exactly...this is the reason..Also because the tires have only 17,000 km...next year maybe i will change to 15 inches..

And not with those sub-miniature D-type connectors on the box. They are meant for computers and industrial applications, not under-bonnet. Doesn't give me much faith in the internals.
