General Oh Dear, Hidden Tinworm!

[Bigjawa]

Just had a quick look underneath the car and there is a hole where the wheelarch meets the sill, probably from road crap getting flung from the tyre.

Anybody have any idea this sort of thing costs to repair?

small holes have a nasty habit of being a lot larger when you grind it back for welding.just have to find a local welder and get a quote[V]

Ah right, I'm over in the East. It's more general bodywork I'm needing done.

You don't see many Pandas arounf Belfast. I've been on the look out for a clean one for a while. I've looked at a few, but they weren't worth buying.

I'm East Belfast too, funny enough just round the corner from me there was a nice 126, but it's vanished and a lovely 4x4 Sisley has taken it's place.

I know what you mean about there being no Panda's though, when the GF didn't buy this one, there was no way I was going to pass it up.

Was the 126 blue? I seen a Sisley on the Belmont Road last week, just outside where Bike It used to be if you know it. I went back to the car to get a pen and paper to tell him that I'd be interested in buying if he was thinking of selling, but it had gone.

Come to think of it I reckon I know the Panda you bought. Was it advertised in the Community Telegraph a couple of weeks back? £375? I phoned about it, but it was sold. B)

The Sisley is at the far end of Connsbrook Ave, at the end of a row of terraces, the 126 was blue, it had alloys too and loooked really tidy.

I saw my Panda in the ads for free, it was in for £300, but I got it for £250

Yeah, thats the same 126 I saw. It was outside Russell Cellars on the Beersbridge Road. Very tidy little car.

Ads for Free? I must look out for that.
