Hi all,
i'm Livvie, new to the site and looking forward to meeting up. based in Wednesbury.
This is my second Puma, sadly my first one was was written off whilst stood still at a junction minding its own business (she was called Winnie as the reg was R910WNE), so hope I have more luck with this one.
The model I've bought is a 1999 1.7 in red, and from the photos on the gallery; a red Puma is just what you need lol
I got it as a run-around project, and its got the usual rust areas, sensors that have failed (traction control, ABS & one or both temperature sensors) to be honest its a bit of a dog, well it SMELLS OF DOG!!!!! i'm sure i will find many more faults, but i'm prepared for the effort needed to bring it back to pristine condition.
However, it handles great, and so far the mechanics seem fine and seems to be more cosmetic issues and the SMELL!!!!!
I'm sure the interior will have to be replaced, not only because to odor, but also the gloss paint and mold. I think the previous keeper needs to be hunted down and shown the error of his ways; to let a Puma get in this state. Or was the car driven by a large smelly dog that worked as a decorator?? i,m not sure, but i am sure it will lead me on a fun filled adventure.
Be sure to give me a wave, i'll be the one in the boiler suit and wearing a gas mask lmao
P.S photos to follow
