    The Ford Puma formerly known an Nancy is for sale! I do not want to scrap it as it's in too good condition (apart from engine). However, I do not have enough time, money or will to fix myself given that I planned to replace the car in 6 months' time anyway. I am not looking for a lot, just to...

    Running on 3 cylinders...

    ...can I safely drive about 250 miles or should I cancel my visit? I had the spark plugs replaced about 10 days ago and it seemed to fix the issue but it's come back with a vengeance.

    Just one rear light not working...

    My offside rear light isn't working, tried changing the bulb, no joy. The fuse tables in the manual don't list rear lights so I'm guessing they have another name - does anyone know what this is? Otherwise any other ideas? It's rather odd that just one is out...

Anyway...I am sick to death of morning radio since Chris Moyles left (don't judge me) and hence I need to buy myself a (2nd hand) CD radio for the Puma. Is there any advantage in getting the 6000 Ford one over an aftermarket one...

    Bent rear beam!

    Apparently I have a bent rear beam :shock: So...just wondering how time-consuming a job it's likely to be to replace and how much the part is (will do a search but if anyone happens to know that'd be handy!). You can't search for rear beam on this site as it handily ignores the word 'rear'...
