So I've just bought a Puma, and so far I'm very impressed. It handles like a bit of a dream. I only paid £600 and was fully expecting to have to spend a good amount extra to get it in shape. To be honest, I probably could have found one in similar condition on Ebay but well, I like this one and I'm happy to do the work, or rather get it done.
I'm pretty sure the cambelt has not been done. There's no service history on it for the last few years and never been done by Ford.
So here's a list of what I want to do with it. Anything else you can think of please do say!
1. Cambelt & Water pump.
2. Brakes and discs
3. Suspension, springs and bushes (I'm pretty sure these are all still original)
4. Full service
5. Back box is blowing. Advisory on last MOT so need to get that done.
6. Quoted £350 from a respected local body shop to "make it mint".
7. Aftermarket CD player.
So that's what I've got on my list! I would very much appreciate you thoughts.
Many thanks!
Ashley.
EDIT: Also, just to point out the fact that in the last 4 years the silencer has been mentioned several times and has not been done which is what, £40 for a back box and £60 at most to fit it? Probably tells you a bit about how the cars been looked after in the last few years! Not to worry, your new daddy will look after you <3
