Yup. Done same.....Much betterAs I'm feeling better I fitted the rear bumper protector, looks neat.

Used my Cross's nifty red towing hook for the first time yesterday, to pull a 50 foot ash tree from our farm pond. I had to fell the tree into the pond because it was leaning over it at a crazy angle, and gravity will have its way. Our garden tractor couldn't get enough traction on the lawn to pull it out - the wheels kept skidding - but the Panda just hunkered down and, as the saying goes, Robert is your father's brother.
Maybe I should start a new thread ... 1001 unconventional uses for a Panda.
The last time I used a car for pulling a tree was the company vectra. I remember a sick feeling as the tree started to fall. Thankfully I had (just) left enough room to avoid squashing the car.
I wish they did the rearguard for the Cross.
Il Mostro! SZ! ?
Visited Viva Zeelanda 2017 near my house. Some 140 cars there and a couple of really nice ones as well. Still the only 312 Panda there.
