Regrettably I am putting my beloved Ford Racing Puma up for sale due to a change in financial circumstances. I have owned this car for a little over 2 years now and has been an excellent car all round. It has been my daily driver throughout my ownership and taken to various shows and events around the country. It has been serviced twice yearly for the past two years with genuine Ford parts because of this and all receipts are present.
Bodywork:
014 had a full blow over 3 years back in Imperial Blue (standard colour) before having paintshield protection put on the bonnet, front bumper, mirrors, front and rear wings as these are most vulnerable for stone chips. This has definitely been of benefit to the car as there are no stone chips in these areas. This car has been machine polished once a year for the past two years and regularly washed and waxed, especially during winter time for protection. The rear bumper has been rebuilt last year (2011) due to someone bumping it, thicker fibreglass was used and is therefore stronger and the paint still in excellent condition. Overall the body work is very tidy for its age and still brings in attention at shows when all cleaned up. I have also put canon mud flaps on the front with numbered stickers to help with the dirt on the body work as the doors aren’t protected with paintshield.
Interior
As standard the FRP comes with Sparco Bucket seats, finished in blue alcantara, blue alcantara front and rear door cards, rear seats and covered steering wheel which are all still in very good condition. I have shaved the seats and the wheel once yearly with a lint shaver and brings the material up brilliantly. I have also made the addition of blue gear and handbrake gaiters which do match well. A blue LED conversion of the dash, heater control panel, interior light and window switches was all done 4 years ago which add a good effect with the rest of the interior styling. (Due to the age they are starting to show signs of age with the lights being a slightly different shade. I can pass the contact details on of the guy who carried the work out who has said he would sort it). The interior will all be fully cleaned before the buyer collects. During the winter the front seats have been under covers, these will be included within the sale.
There is a small tear on the drivers’ seat, on the supports (not the alcantara) which is shown in the pictures. The two front seats are also fully interchangeable with each other.
Under the Bonnet
Don’t be put off by the high mileage of this car, these engines are very good when looked after and driven properly, they are designed to be revved hard on the occasion. I have serviced it twice yearly with new plugs, fuel filter, KandN panel filter cleaned, Oil filter and so the engine runs sweet and starts first time every time. It can struggle due to the cold but this is common with these cars. It has had a new thermostat and housing replaced last year due to the thermostat housing cracking whilst in Germany, coolant has been changed once yearly whilst I have owned the car. Regular MAF and ICV cleans have also been carried out. The exhaust is a full stainless steel Janspeed system and now has a decat fitted, all in good working order and regularly cleaned.
Wheels, Brakes and Suspension
The wheels are still as standard, 17’ Speedline Tourinis with Michelin Pilot Exalto tyres fitted, a good all round tyre for this car. Both front tyres are new this year and plenty of tread on the rear. The wheels have been polished and waxed twice yearly for the past 2 years. A full suspension change was carried out early last year including new shocks and springs on all four corners with the top mounts also being replaced. The rear beam bushes have been replaced with powerflex as have the ARB bushes. (The ARB bushes were only done this year). The four-pot Alcon calipers have been serviced every year since I have known the car by a well - known guy on the forum who has been doing these for years and really knows his stuff, he takes these apart checks all seals, removes the pistons and generally gives them a good clean-up, replacing any necessary bolts before reassembling them. The Alcon’s have also been powder coated to match the colour of the car and really do look the part. I’ve had the discs skimmed last year and cleaned this year when the brake service was carried out, new Textar pads also fitted, brakes bled, fresh dot 5.1 fluid put in and they work absolutely fine.
In 2010 I had the car on a rolling road which produced 151.3bhp shortly before having a full service. It runs like a dream and am deeply sad for selling up. It is well known on 3 forums and have all information given backed up with receipts and various paper work. I have also attached the link for my project thread which shows in detail the work I’ve done myself. I have taken in to account all work which is required in the price so please no time wasters as this is a very well looked after car.
I also have the original brochure and numbered specification booklet for the car, both in mint condition. The car will come with the Personalised number plate: V14 FRP and 3 remote keys in total. The mileage will go up, by how much depends on hw long the car is up for sale as I am still using it daily.
