    Pacific Green W Reg - seized engine. KENT (lots of pics)

    Hi all. I'm regrettably selling my baby as I had the terrible luck of having the engine seize. My water pump decided to fail on me which in turn thought it would take out the timing belt and ultimately lead to seizing the engine! :( I toyed with the idea of getting a replacement engine as I...

    Time for a new engine?

    Thanks again for all the help guys. I've sent Ian G a message so I'll see what he comes back with. Out of interest, has anyone ever attempted replacing and engine themselves? and I don't necessarily mean completely on your own. My boss reckons it should be relatively straight forward and we...

    Time for a new engine?

    May I ask how much all of that set you back? And did you fit it yourself? or take it all to a garage? Thanks

    Time for a new engine?

    Thanks for the advise so far guys! Quest, that sounds like it might be ideal. How come yours in getting written off? Could be of interest for the right price I guess... Just looking at some engines on ebay at the mo and looking for self service garages nearby... this could turn into a mini...

    Time for a new engine?

    Hi all. So yesterday the unthinkable happened. I was cruising down the A2 to Dover when all of a sudden there was a big judder and my engine appeared to stall. I lost all power, all my dash lights came on and I rolled to a stop. Turning the key in the ignition just gives one 'grunt' but doesn't...

    Mini Sub setup

    Having seen a bunch of installs, I was thinking of putting a sub into my Kat. But instead of going for a big box in the back, I was thinking of saving the boot space and going for a small, stealth install instead. I came across this little fella : http://bit.ly/YiQZ3K"...

    Headlight Rubber Seal

    Oh and Ian, while you're at it, would you happen to also have a drivers side rear bumper cover? (I think that's the term for it) It's the small D shaped piece that sits next to the reflector/fog light and covers the toe hook hole. Drivers side. In the above colour if poss (Pacific Green) Thanks

    Headlight Rubber Seal

    Hi all, I've had a search through previous threads but can't seem to find the info I'm after. The rubber seal around the edge of my drivers headlight is broken (sadly was like it when I bought it) I was just wondering what the best way is to repair/replace this? Can you just buy new rubber? Or...

    Puma Virgin. Age vs Mileage vs Engine?

    So I went and saw #2 again last night.... ...and here she is! Just a quick pic I took this morning on my phone She drives beautifully and is in pretty good condition. I'll do another thread with some more pics and full description when I get home later. Here's a pic of the key plus a clue...

    Puma Virgin. Age vs Mileage vs Engine?

    Well the remote didn't work (maybe just a battery) and when I put it in and turned it either way, it just didn't open the locks. Only putting the key in the boot lock worked and so he had to climb through and manually open the door. Oh and now that I remember, the electric windows were both...

    Puma Virgin. Age vs Mileage vs Engine?

    So I went back to look at car #3 for a more thorough inspection. My first visit was kinda rushed and I caught up in the excitement of seeing the car.. On my first visit I thought that the seller was being really kind by opening the door for me to climb in. But last night I discovered that he...

    Puma Virgin. Age vs Mileage vs Engine?

    Wow, thanks for speedy responses and all of the useful advice! So Car 1 is ruled out. 1 down, 2 to go. -B- - Your comments are interesting as when I went to view the car, I actually met his so called mechanic. He was just sat in the passenger seat (yes, even though I had arranged a viewing...

    Puma Virgin. Age vs Mileage vs Engine?

    Hi there everybody. I've always liked the looks of Pumas but never actually considered buying on until recently. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, namely the gearbox pretty much dropping out the bottom of my MK3 Ibiza, I find myself in need of a vehicle quick and have set my sights on one...
