General How to fit a double bed into a panda...

[pandamonius_maximus]

Right, after cooling down a bit after reading a certain thread ....here's a fun thing to cheer you all up. Been without a bed for what I can only describe as WAY too long. So yesterday I decided to buy one.....and transport it all in the panda. Distance wasnt too bad, literally about a couple minutes drive away. Bit far to push a trolly though (and waay to steep) and too near to pay £20 for it to be delivered (while I am at work!). So the result....

....one very amused employee at focus and the whole lot inside the car (mostly). It has made my week already and the week hasnt even begun. I love the way that in the photo the rear widows have popped open like a she's about to burst! That car deserves a medal for what it has acheived in its life. I have never had to hire a van to move my belongings and I have moved house so many times.

Also, exhaust note was lovely throught the open tailgate. Bit fumey though.

Cheers, guys! Power to the panda lot!!

Meand the Mrs moved a few years ago in my mums Metro; took 16 runs and almost 2 days, if only we'd had the Panda!!!

It's amazing what you can get in there if you try, hehe

I've still got the christmas tree to the dump run to go yet

Allways something worth hauling in a panda...usually some sort of panda replacement part lol!!! ....Need I mention doors

Chistmas tree should like a good bit of fun....and you get to give the car a good old hoover after to get rid of the rest of the tree!!

:idea:...Coming to think about it, we should have a thread dedicated what gets carted around in our panda's....

Also, a thread for "what we have overtaken on our journeys"....ok I'm getting carried away now. But the first one sound cool to me. Anyone else got any of these photos that need a place to stay?

I know the feeling! My car has been more reliable than most cars I have heard about tbh. And its allways nice pullling up behind a broken down car to offer help in a panda! Helped a few ppl at the side of the road, dont know how appreciated it was sometimes hahaha!

Dad moved half of the content of our house in the 750L.

From one house 3 miles to the other. Clocked up 450 miles back and forth!

Only half

 

[nitro_warrior]

Only half

Probably becuase he's still doing it! By my calculations thats over 70 round trips and £50 in petrol!?! Hire a van!

 

[pandamonius_maximus]

....Hire a van!

NEVERRRR!!!!:slayer: lol, although for the preservation of these endangered creatures perhaps we are a bit too hard on them at times. They're the cars that just keep giving

I'm guilty too to be fair. I once packed my panda so full of stuff I couldn't get it into 1st gear. That is to say there was a box physically in the way of the gear lever, had to start off in 2nd!

Haha, dito. And lets face it, we've all been there I use 2nd to pull of a lot in my 4x4 anyway. 1st doesnt go very far

Only half

Lol. The rest went in the removal van. Pandas are very multi purpose, but there is still only so much you can fit in them unfortunatly. Hehe.
