I'm sure some of you have already heard of the Mongol Rally but for those who haven't, take a look at that site or our team page
I'm a first time Panda owner and am already in love with the car! We got an E reg 1000cl for £150 and it seems a shame to have to leave her in Mongolia when we are finished. I've done about 150 miles in Molly in the last week and have loved every one!
She has the following problems that I know nothing about fixing:
When the temp gauge hits about 95 the dials reset to zero (thermostat?)
When turning left, there is a high pitched whining squeak (bearings?)
Steering is VERY heavy and it's hard to maneuvre her (???)
The brakes are pointless, very spongy and with little effect (???)
Other than that, she's in great condition! If anyone knows where I can get cheap panda parts or of any companies that would be interested in sponsoring us then please get in touch! The rally is being televised so there will be loads of publicity opportunities for sponsors.
