Hi. Just showing my 13 yo on what car I used to drive over 30+ years ago and my lovely panda 4x4 omg it brings back memories. Anyways I’m off to nym this weekend and was wondering if you have the route you used. I see Rudland rig but didn’t recognise the others. I would like to take the disco up those but really wanting a panda old school 4x4

[@UKPanda4x4]

Thanks for your support, have a great time.

Ciao fai qualche video in più sono molto divertenti

Interesting to hear about the petrol being more capable off-roaders. What about ELD? If you had to choose a Mk 3 1,2 without ELD or a Mk 4 1,3 MTJ with ELD? Doesn't it make any difference (sorry if you've explained it already somewhere else!). Thanks 😊

[@UKPanda4x4]

Personally I'd take the petrol Mk3. I've not spent any time in the drivers seat of an ELD car but I have seen the MJ cars consistently struggle when we tackle steep, loose, rocky sections. A guy in our group has fitted a Cross rear diff to his Mk3 4x4 which, through some DIY wiring, has given him switchable/lockable 4wd which seems to be a great option and is something I am looking at doing on my car.

[@ibanlistas]

@@UKPanda4x4 Thanks for that. It is truly enlightening.

[@ibanlistas]

@@UKPanda4x4 By the way, just realised that Mk4 is nearly 200 kg heavier than a 1,2 petrol Mk3. Could this also be a reason for it not performing as well under certain off-road circumstances. At the end of the day, a 200 kg difference is like carrying 2 adults and a small child on the back seat all the time, isn't it?

[@portamurda]

I know you’ve said this before BUT what about those of us not on Facebook, and now not on twitter either?!?

[@UKPanda4x4]

What about them?

[@portamurda]

@@UKPanda4x4 for meet ups/treks/outings etc

[@UKPanda4x4]

Yes, as I explained in the video, we post public meets on Facebook. It is by far the easiest way to do it.

[@portamurda]

@@UKPanda4x4 sorry, yes I understand, I meant for those of us not on Facebook…

[@UKPanda4x4]

Yeah I understood you. Meets are organised on Facebook, if you dont want to use Facebook I guess you miss out unfortunately.
