Hello everyone
After years of being a company car man based in the Midlands, I purchased my very first Puma today.
It's a bit rough round the edges (mostly rear arches), but I plan to use it as a daily driver/project.
I'm hoping over the next few months to bring it back to it's former glory.
Here's the details so far:
2001
1.7
Silver (moondust, I think), with cloth interior
Just over 100k on the clock
MOT to September 2015
All this for the handsome price of £350!
Needs doing ASAP: Front bearings, cambelt change, a good service and a set of half-decent tyres.
Needs doing after that: replace front bumper (cracked), replace arches (rusting) and fit leather interior.
Any top tips and suggestions as I go along would be greatly appreciated.
Wish me luck...
