    Dangerous amounts of rust?

    That makes sense. For the past year I have received notification for every Puma that was advertised, from a total of maybe 10-15 only one of them didn't have that tip of the ice berg with rust at the rear wheel arches, but still whatever the mileage the price was always around £1000. The one...

    Dangerous amounts of rust?

    That is a good suggestion. I found some candidates and checked the estimated tax for importing to be about £2200 in addition to the price of the car itself. The car taxes in Norway are insane. I knew a guy that got around that issue by splitting the chassis in half and imported them as car parts...

    Dangerous amounts of rust?

    Dangerous amounts of rust?

    Here is the background story of my second and current Puma. I got my Puma a year ago, registered in 1999 and now has 170000 km or 100000 miles on it, it had some rust in the sills and rear wheel arches, no big deal as it was expected and easy to fix. Now after a year with desperately needed TLC...

    I figured out the knocking sounds

    Hi, My first post. Nice forum, I've found lots of useful stuff here. Not sure if this is how one should use a forum, this is more an answer than a discussion. But I would like to add something here that I could not find: I've had an issue with severe knocking sounds since I got my Puma a year...
