Greetings from Wicklow!
Actually managed to buy an Irish Puma over in England last year, just coming home this week after having it restored!
Best of luck with the search!

Hey James,congrats man,glad you got a good one,had one way back and want another one,some decent ones on autotrader in fairness,the classic insurance in Ireland is a Godsend!!

What did you have done to the car James,if you dont mind me asking?

 

[Cubatoo]

Hi and welcome. I hope you find the Puma if your dreams very soon

 

[Bobthebuilder]

Hi. Welcome to the forum. Good luck with your search for a puma. There's still quite a few good ones out there but it might take a while to find one

 

[kopite72]

yeah,seem to be going up in value too,Racing puma is the one I'd love,absolutely stunning car,25 years on and it still looks amazing,it's a timeless classic,maybe a retirment pressie down the line

Condition is everything. I ended up with a 1.6 with 24k miles on the clock. One owner. Fsh. Its now quicker than a 1.7.

 

[kopite72]

What did you do to it? Remap? Cams?

Hey, sorry just saw this now. I bought an Irish registered Racing Puma in the UK at auction last July that had been sitting in a barn for six years, so it’s had almost everything done since then to be honest! full engine and gearbox re-build, brakes, underside and then now then went and had all the rust and bodywork sorted, and then a full re-spray, so looking good now! Just brought it back home yesterday.. And absolutely right on the classic insurance, it’s very cheap to insure thankfully after all that expense!

Not sure if you are looking in the UK or just in Ireland, but just saw this pop up and looks excellent… https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1DxVhxncmp/?mibextid=wwXIfr
