Bought a red 1.7 Puma (first registered 2000) about 6 weeks ago. (£550)
Genuinely bought from a little old lady along the road who has asked me to pop in for coffee anytime as she is going to miss her car. (bless!)
Some small rust patches in obvious places and a couple of scratches but looks good. Only issues are sticky gear linkages (possibly due to being parked on a driveway for 6 months prior to purchase?) and the boot not shutting ocassionally.
The gear linkage problem is the real issue. I have WD40'd it (and got a faceful of WD40 for my troubles) but still having the same problems. :|
Recently noticed other Puma drivers waving and flashing their lights at me and thought there was something wrong but now realised it is a friendly thing and not my new hair colour lol
Pleased to meet you all.
