General 1st National Panday 4x4 - Peak District

[Palio]

Room for a newbie on the Sunday? Just bought a slightly crispy 4x4, would be fun to take it out and see what it can do.

When you say that a sump guard is required - it has the bull bars with the frame underneath for protection - do you mean an actual flat guard or will it be OK do you reckon?

New to Pandas so be gentle

Most have the sump guard frame - only a few mk1/2's have added extra flat guards. On that basis you'll be fine - oh and more than welcome! Hello :wave:

(nothing like replying in reverse!).

Hi there, yes it's no problem for you to come along, I mean just the standard frame under the engine and gearbox, aslong as you have that fitted you should be fine

Freddy, are you going to spread the lot into small groups or just take it steady and don't bother with byway code?

We will be spliting into two groups most probably, as 17 cars in one convoy is a little too many really!

Mermaid Pool? Looks like a lay-by to me - no pool, no mermaids, nothing.....

Nice Panda though!

Keep up the good work, looking forward to it.

I feel faint - TOE is out in the wild and it isn't even MOT time!
Palio: I suspect austerity measures mean the pool has been drained and the mermaid laid off.

my plan is to only use 2 wheel drive mode. if/when i get stuck i will "use the wand of power"

ill also bring some towing stuff.. in the shape of some old crane lifting hoists.

 

[panda1408]

Yes I do use it panda panda! The pool is behind the railings, can't show you everything or you wouldn't come Palio
