    Sad mot day after 23 years ownership

    Thank you, yeah spent a lot of quality years polishing (ocd) :). The pics are about 10-12 years ago and the rear arches done pre-covid. Alas it's had plenty of patch work/welding in recent times - the underside, sills, floor pans etc. I guess a ticking rust bomb! Tbh mechanically it's sound as...

    Sad mot day after 23 years ownership

    Hi John/Kenzo, Thank you and agree, need to take it in before any rash decisions. It's deffo a keeper though (family member!) whatever happens. The guy I see is restoring an old Nissan starlet (with a detroit V8)! built race engines for MR2's and 'know's his onions' with cars, along with being...

    Sad mot day after 23 years ownership

    Hi all, Well the Puma has finally succumbed to the dreaded rot. The guy I see said its now more of a restoration project rather than a repair job. The chassis, rear sub-frame mounting (or lack of), the sills, basically the back end. Each year was trying to keep it going with repairs. The Mrs...

    Spotted - Moondust silver Puma - M42 South - 31/08/2024

    Wow another Puma, think it was a 'W' plate, great to see another on the motorway, nice condition too 😎 I was on the inside lane (Black Puma) just before Hopwood Services. The silver Puma was in the middle lane, passed us and put on hazards as acknowledgement, then gone like a shot 🏁 👍 Paul

    Himley Hall Classic

    👍😎 I was going attend but the weather forecast looked dodgy so stayed in and watched the F1 and Moto GP instead. However agree, previous Himley shows have been pretty seamless/no issues but have read other comments about todays traffic situ. Only a year to go till the next one! Paul

    Gaydon Gathering 10/09/24

    Booked, thanks for the notice John 😎. I 'might' turn up in a non Puma (boo/hiss) for this one, but will try and park near the Puma Pack. Will see on the day anyway 👍

    Gaydon Gathering 13/08/24

    Another top meet, great pics and cool peeps 👍. Thank you to John for reserving the parking for the 'Puma Pack' 😎. Despite owning the Puma for 23 years, I'm into it more than ever having met fellow owners and their cars. Cheers 👍

    Lowering springs - rear only?

    Temp bodge 🤪: Put a couple of long compost bags in the boot (did have 3 but Mrs needs one for the garden)! Puma dropped visually, adjusted wing mirrors to account for change. Looks better, just slower! £13 mod😆

    Part Wanted Front wing drivers side re 2001

    Result: Managed to source a Puma for breaking and the wing is in far far better condition. Also in panther black and compatible for 2001 😊. Pics of our current one below (2nd pic part of wing missing next to mudflap) and also has some crazy spidery lines beneath the paint 😬. Really chuffed to...

    Lowering springs - rear only?

    Hi all. Always thought the rear sits high and been contemplating a 30-40mm rear drop with springs only. Car set up is standard on 15s. Thoughts/suitable with stock shocks/anyone tried it or leave as is? Ta.

    My puma a panther black 2001, was a standard 1.7 no electric mirrors , no air con, now with a few mods added.

    Welcome and a very nicely presented Puma. Guessing on 17s with stock suspension? Only mentioned as had 17s on low profiles with stock suspension and stance looking similar (pic below) although found the ride a bit harsh. Anyways your mods look sweet 😎

    Team Heko deflectors fitted

    At the mo haven’t risked with the windows down (thankful for air con 🥶). Had to re push/adjust the clips a couple of times when windows down whilst static, but have read double sided tape might also be useful. So it's form/styling over function for the time being 😁

    Team Heko deflectors fitted

    Just been for a test drive up to 70mph (honest officer lol) and still attached, although didn’t put the windows down!
