Car is now provisionally sold. Can the moderators close or remove this thread please? Thank you!

It's a full miltek exhaust but I couldn't say for sure what the cat is. The exhaust was fitted by the previous owner so I can't say for certain. Cheers Barry, it is a great little car, I'll be sad to see it go. You can never have too many projects and you're not THAT far away ;)

It is with great sadness I must depart from my little red puma. The missus and I are expecting our first child in a few months so I've had to buy a more suitable replacement. As a result, my puma is sat parked up on the drive way. It has no tax and the MOT expires on the 1/7. It has a few...

Thanks chaps. I might end up replacing the whole set up just in case.

Hi guys, me again :roll: I had a new set of disks and pads fitted a few months back as my puma was suffering terribly from juddering under normal braking. This seemed to sort the problem for a few thousand mile but I'm starting to have that same problem again. I haven't had a chance to take...

Thanks Paul, I can't find my owners manual either so that's a big help. Hopefully it's just the fuse.

I'm having the same problems with mine. It sounds like it wants to start but just can't quite turn over completely. I've had it going backwards and forwards by putting it into gear and letting the clutch out whilst pumping the accelerator but it's just not enough to get it going. I'm gonna...

Looks very smart indeed. I like low cars on standard size rims.

I've got 17s and coil overs on mine. I get a bit of rubbing on full lock and the odd scrape from the back if I have chunky passengers. Those wheels you have should fit but you might get little niggles like I do.

problem solved! still no idea what that thing is in the first pic, but I removed it along with the rest of the internal wiring, removed the relay and followed the wire down to the speed sensor on the gearbox. It looks like somebody had bodged the torque limiter and the wires had come apart. I...

Ok, so I've taken that thing apart, still not sure what it was and traced the wires out through the rubber grommet in the bulkhead and it goes into some weird little electrical relay. The relay in turn is connected to the battery. Am I being dense because I have no clue what it is. If it's...

Heated screens work fine, fog light is ok, blowers and a/c are all working too. Aaaah, you might be onto something there masl. I bought the car off a young lad so there is a good chance you're on the money. I guess I'll have to look into it.

That's the thing, all the buttons on the centre console work fine :? It's weird.

Can anybody tell me what this is? I noticed it the other day, it was taped to the underside of the dash (under the ashtray/coin holder). The green LED's don't come on when I put the sidelights on. Also, my speedo stops working every now and then and the car has started to cut out occasionally...

Does your puma cut out at the lights as well? I have a an intermittent fault with my speedo and it's causing the car to stall when I slow down at lights/junctions.

This car is lovely. Are you going to turbo the 1.7 or go for full swap?

Hi guys, I'm Ben. I'm a bit of a lurker on here and have been for a while. I thought it's about time I said hello. This is my bus. I tried selling it a while back but I've stuck with it and I'm glad I kept it :grin:

Sure is.

Hey Dan, thanks for the reply. It runs really well, I've had it coming up to 2 years now and it's been a good little car. The arches are mint and there's very little rust elsewhere on the bodywork. The paint is decent but there is the odd stonechip here and there (nothing major - just from...
