I'll box it up properly - you're looking at £10 postage via courier.

I have 2 x (ripe for conversion) air filter boxes designed for a Ford Puma 1.7. Free to collect from Folkestone or pay the postage please. I also have the centre console designed for a Ford Focus that does fit the Puma - again free to collect from Folkestone or pay the postage. Contact me on...

Its been clay barred several times and regularly waxed. This has appeared in the last six months and is getting worse.

Hiya, Is it a common problem that the paintwork on the roof and bonnet go like someone has had a scouring pad on it? When I bought my Puma 3 years ago the paintwork was near perfect but over time the roof has gone like someone's been at it with a scouring pad - even feels very rough and the...

Initially I bought a plastic screw together washer designed for plumbing (wide enough diameter for the hole) which screwed together and provided a tight, waterproof seal. I stuck with this for a while until I removed all of the wiper motor gubbins, fitted the reversing camera and soundproofed /...

Like many Puma owners I have removed the rear wash wipe. I have also removed the motor and more recently the hose that runs across the roof (before sound proofing the roof) and now I want to remove the hose entirely off the washer bottle. Now this is not a problem - easy job to do whilst...

UPDATE: The original suspension came from PumaBuild. Pumabuild were sent letters, threatened with being sued, sued via small claims court and have not paid a cent (in fact they just went quiet thinking it would all go away). The NEW suspension (as supplied by Mountney), fitted correctly by the...

What did you go for in the end?

Performance Puma in South Woodford : http://blog.performancepuma.com/ I had my cambelt and tensioner, stretch bolts, water pump and anti-freeze, aux belt & rocker cover gasket replaced - all for £320.

If you're on a very tight budget, maybe!

Thanks for the replies so far - Frank & Zinc2000. You see I am having trouble putting any sort of blame of the mechanic who installed said suspension (I have been using him for over 10 years with all sorts of vehicles that I have owned). I was there when it was installed and with £800+ of...

The company that makes the suspension has had their technical guys look at the suspension and come back with a report that states that one of the rear struts / springs has been incorrectly assembled. The seller of the suspension (different company) has read the same report and stated that the...

ok - another question - for my own peace of mind - is it possible that a seasoned mechanic could somehow incorrectly assemble a rear strut / spring assembly and if so, would he not notice at any point?

Lets say for arguements sake that one of my rear suspension struts / springs was incorrectly assembled and then fitted; Would the rod of the strut not be secure and would this strut affect the handling of the car and put more pressure on the remaining struts to the point that one of the front...
