Amazing stuff Sutjeska has posted up
Radbourne racing tuned a MK1 panda and much much more..
You may need to take a couple of days off though to get through it :slayer:

Left work absolutely pissed off. Booted it around a roundabout, I encountered some kind of lift-off oversteer.

In a good way or a hello Mr Hedge way?

Ah just like the 500/Panda mk 3 then, keep power on at all times unless braking

Haven't you got some decent rubber on yet?

BTW a clone of yours is in classifieds

I trust you didn't hit anything and all are ok?
Im pricing up rear shocks and service parts at the moment for both panda's. Found some cheep 4x4 shocks and 2wd shocks so going to save on postage and buy for both

Punto acts the same, if going round a corner a bit too enthusiastically, keep foot in it, lift off and it gets a bit wooly at the back. Braking just causes massive understeer normally.

In a that was not expected way.

Nope, i'm thinking of just running this into the ground.

£1000 with no tax or MOT? Whats with all the optimistic Pandas lately?

I hit nothing, luckily there was no other cars near me.

Don'cha just hate Sundays & Mondays.

Ebay has a lot to answer for.

Everyone in the know posts new stuff so that it finishes on Sunday and if the get it a bit wrong then Monday.

It has ruined my social life cos I spend bloody hours wading through email reminders that offer '68 new posts' so then I have to look a 2000 items that I am never going to be interested in.

BUT THEN THERE MIGHT BE THAT ONE THAT NO ONE ELSE HAS SEEN.....hEH HEH HEH

Bad news:

Got in the car, my clocks stopped!!!
Oh no, wait a sec, because it doesn't keep time. When I adjusted it yesterday, the pin didn't go back in properly. :slayer:


Good news:

It's not exactly Barbados weather, but it's nice today, so i'm in half-sunroof mode this afternoon.
First time this year.

4 or 5 seats???

I've been doing much research on our favourite rare species. If a private detective searched my computer right now they'd think I wanted to marry a Panda. Besides this I cannot seem to find a definite answer on whether Pandas are 4 or 5 seats. Some places mention it has 4, some 5. Does it vary between models?

Somebody might know here

 

[purple haze]

5 seats.....5 seatbelts..

Nearly got a new clock for Grumbleweed today, fished one out of a box of stuff at work and thought 'ooh that looks nice'. Then started to research it to get a price and it's turned out to be a clock from a Spitfire (no not the Triumph, the WWII legend) so slightly off budget for me Still made my day though.

More from the Japanese. (Shamelessly stolen from Retro Rides)

Vernon's doppelgänger is in Japan somewhere.
