- Look for radiator leaks, especially at the bottom corners—cooling system neglect is common on older Pandas.
- Check the rear suspension beam for corrosion and bush wear, especially on cars from coastal areas.
- Avoid Dualogic models entirely; the actuator failures are expensive and the gearbox is not designed for UK traffic.
