    Driving a Puma again

    So I’ve had my Millenium motd couple weeks ago.It passed with nothing major mentioned.Have owned this one about 7 years?.Used it about 2-3 years ago for a year and considering it’s just stood around either outside or in a carport it looks ok from about 10’🙁

    Has anyone ever looked into converting a Puma to electric?

    Don’t drive Pumas very often but I thought one of the nicest features of the car is the noise from the engine.So I think the idea is just silly.

    Slippery mode

    Get some winter tyres.I use Hankook Icept tyres on my old Ka which really has same DNA as Puma and always found them very good. in snow and on cold wet roads just fitted to the front they really turn the car into an oversteer instead of an under steering vehicle.For year round tyres a set of...

    Road Rally car standard brake options

    Would try standard discs with Carbonne Lorraine pads(think that’s spelt right).If they make a pad for Puma they come in different grades RC5 and RC6 I think.They are very noisy but can be driven hard on track all day with no fade

    Puma Values

    Difference between Pumas and early escorts is Pumas are a nice to drive road car and escorts were world class leading rally /race cars.Pumas have no competition heritage.

    Most Cost effective power upgrade ?

    Best upgrade is to get on some track days where they have competent driving instructors.I ve been in a couple of heavily modified Pumas years ago with stupid fat tyres and lots of unusable BHP and they felt awful with corrupt steering and understeer.

    Puma vs Sportka

    Never owned a sportka but had a 1.3 since 1996.Apart from the very low geared steering(non power)I generally prefer the Ka to the Puma .I have Puma front seats in it and is far more user friendly with easy access to rear seats generally better all round vision and a split rear fold down seat.Of...
