The Pumas replacement

[Scotty1.7]

Yes Folks - I've finally found a replacement for my beloved pal.

No Pics yet, but a few little teasing facts

its one of only 51 left (33 Sorn and 16 on the road)

Its very very low mileage - less then 40k

It's got a lot and I mean a massive amount of sentimental value to me for what it is.

Its British (ish)

Its not going to modified as such - but it will be gently restored.

Its cheaper to insure then the puma.

So I'll let you have a few guesses while I sort out getting it on the road and see if anyone can guess what it is.

Oh and its not a Ford I'm afraid but you knew that from me saying its British

There is nothing right about BL.
