Lol Bobby Walker, I thought it was a bit big headed of him to ask for it, but a jobs a job :lol:

I very recently Viperised my black Puma :grin: Pics here http://www.shireoakgraphics.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; in the portfolio section I did it myself and yes, it's fairly easy all you need is masking tape, meths, a squeegee (signwriters card thingy for pressing...

Hi all, I wondered if these would fit a standard 2001 Puma 1.7 without any further modifications? 4 x17" TSW FORD ALLOY WHEELS/TYRES ESCORT MONDEO FIESTA 215/40/17" directional tyres Originally off a Ford Mondeo Thank you in advance Jen :-)

Yes, am chuffed to bits about it all. I thought it would cost me both arms and both legs lol. Am having a think about doing something nice with the wheels now :lol:

Update.... Car has now passed the MOT wooooo. Final price: Car £850 Parts and labour, including MOT test fee and retest fee £324.40 All in £1174.40 for a black 2001 to be completely road sorted and there's only 58k on the clock. I reckon I've done alright there. Yay Pumas!!!

Yep, it was my front and rear nearside mounts that were causing the knocking. With that all sorted I've noticed a squeaking noise coming from the back :roll:

I finally decided to go with the stripes idea in silver and a large Puma logo on the back wings. It took an age to put it on right though with all the bubbles trying to get in there lol. I've had a couple of nice comments since it's been completed and heads are turning :lol: Might add some...

Hi, I'm training to be a sign writer and I can tell you from experience that getting carbon wrapping right is not easy. However, do not be discouraged, we all have to start somewhere. If I were you I'd pick myself up a couple of scrap pieces of vinyl - any colour - and practice first. Grab a...

Wow! they look fantastic!

Hi All, I'm training to be a sign writer and the more I look at my black puma, the more I want to pretty her up with a few graphics. I thought a nice puma logo in silver would set off the bonnet nicely or maybe the sides. My car has had a hard life cosmetically with her previous owners and I...

Thank You for your replies :grin:

Hi All, just wondered if I could get a bit of advice. My Puma had a new clutch fitted by the previous owner some 12 months ago. Lately, when I'm changing from 2nd to 3rd to 4th etc I can hear a light whirring... :? This has only started within the last few weeks. If I dip the clutch the...

Haven't had a go at this yet, apparently it works on any ford with the green LCD at the bottom of the clock. How To Unlock Your Digital Dash Display In Ford Cars The Self Diagnostics Mode gives you in-depth information about your engine and the actual numbers in digital. To use it, follow the...

Thank you all for your tips. I think bright bulbs is the way to go here and thanks for the heads up on the MOT failure - will get them adjusted by a pro pre-mot unless anyone knows how to do this and what the MOT specs are.

My hubby is borrowing my Puma for work and coming home in the dark. He says he can hardly see where he's going. I said that this wouldn't make any difference to his standard of driving as he never looks at the road anyway, but he insists that sometimes he does so here we go... I've had a mess...

I think the best place to drab one might be a tat yard. I didn't notice any sealant on either the one I took off or the one I put on. P.O.P. to do though :lol:

I'm loving it :grin: Yes 1/2 mile to work OR 40 mins walk plus 40 mins child care charges at 5pm when I have to drive 2 miles to pick my kids up. Walking is great but it's a luxury I can't afford at the moment.

I picked an after market back box and middle section up from Hall Green Spares in Birmingham for £40. Delivery is £9.99 if you're not in the midlands area.

Re: no spare tyre. My hubby's Renault top off doesn't have a spare wheel. Just a mini tool kit and 2 bottles of tyre weld. We had a puncture a few months ago and found that the tyre weld did nothing to pump the tyre up again although it did seal the leak. # We now carry a foot pump in the boot...

I've had my little "850" since Feb and due to a couple of problems that required attention I hadn't pushed the engine past 2500 revs for fear of any problems that might become worse and for safety's sake (posts detailing the ongoing project that is my car are on here). Well!!!!!!...... had the...
