Puma Black Edition 122,000 miles (many are motorway miles) Regular oil changes Repaired regardless of cost Always kept clean, pretty good paintwork for age...

I bought the Extreme Brilliance ones a couple of years ago. They are way better than standard ones, but I'd keep the old ones anyway. I got 13 months out of one bulb and 15 months out the other. I've since bought some Bosch one's and they're great. Only had em a couple of months so not sure on...

Yeah, we've been in touch. He's checking out how many straight wheels he's got. Just putting out feelers for any others.

I'm still looking for wheels, but I do need a full set of four. Leeds, Manchester maybe a little further. Thanks.

Where abouts are you? I'm not botheed about the tyres, I'll have to pay to get them removed anyway. Are they in good condition?

I've got a Puma Black with the F1 style wheels. 1 wheel is bent and the spare is the wrong one for the car. I'm looking either for: 1) Ideally set of Four Thunder alloys or 2) Two or Four F1 style wheels in good condition or 3) Four 9 Spoke alloys in good condition Cheers.

Similar discussion here actually... http://www.projectpuma.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=13011" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I think these symptoms are normal, as the AC unit fitted to these cars are a bit of an after thought and aren't fully integrated. They work with a viscous coupling so when the AC kicks in every now and then it will affect the revs to the engine. Mine has always done this (even when it worked ok)...

Cheers Yvonne. Almost sorted now. Went to Ford. They've M10x25mm which I picked up from B&Q. Still fancy fitting bigger brakes, but at the moment I just need brakes! lol As far as I know guys, I'm pretty sure the ST150 178mmx22mm discs with the 54mm piston callipers will fit under standard 15"...

Those measurements I mentioned were correct. I was going to take a gamble for the larger ones but when I added the discs and pads it was quickly becoming a £300 gamble. I ended up sourcing some normal Puma/Fiesta callipers in the end, but when I came to fit them the carrier bolts were rounded...

I may have sourced some, but they are telling me there are two sizes of piston and thickness of disc. 20mm vs 22mm discs (thickness) and piston sizes of 48mm(?) and 54mm(?) - might have those wrong?

Thought as much, but thought here might the a good place to start. I'm in Hunddersfield. Suppose I could just sort it until something comes up. Cheers guys! J

In an urgent situation. I have a ceased calliper and need the car for the weekend. I could go get reconditioned ones from the motor factors, or I could upgrade them... Been reading up on this conversion from this site and others and it seems the best upgrade for minimal effort and modification...

Looking for a decent garage to take the Puma for MOT and fix poly bushes. Can anyone recommend any decent garages in the area, preferably one which has fit poly's before and understands how hard the Ford ones are to get out. I would do it myself but just dont have the time right now, plus it...

Thanks Dal. Much appreciated.
