    Out and about

    As I don't think I've shown any before, I thought I'd post a picture of my Puma taken while I was out and about recently. The other another design classic behind is the 'gate guard' at RAF Benson.

    Cowley Classic Car Show

    I've been meaning to post that I visited the Cowley Classic Car Show on the bank holiday Monday....... and hoped that I'd spot a Puma there. Having walked up and down the rows of cars I was a little disappointed not to see any until I came across this nice one in the last row. I wasn't...

    Silver Puma spotted - Wallingford, Oxfordshire.

    I spotted a silver Puma on the Wallingford bypass recently and meant to ask if it was anyone's on here? I would have waved but it might have seen odd as we were in my wife's Smart Car. It came as a bit of a pleasant surprise.....probably because I can't remember the last time I saw one on the...

    Back on the road

    Lock down, a back injury & work put the brakes on me sorting out my Puma - which has been off the road since it failed to start a 2/3 years ago. Anyway I got a mobile mechanic out today who confirmed my suspicion that the fuel pump had gone. Knowing that it was a tank out job was partly why I...

    My Puma

    I kept meaning to post a picture of my Puma so, here it is. Taken at the dealers that I bought it from a couple of years ago. (haven't managed to take one since). Although in great condition, the picture is very flattering and doesn't show the odd mark, crazing on the bumbers or the (small)...

    non-starter

    Hi all, My 1,7 has been in the garage for most of the winter bt I kept the battery topped up with a trickle charger. I went to start it yesterday but although it turned over it wouldn't start. I checked the fuses & fuel cut off switch but all seemed Ok. Tried to check the spark plugs but...

    Cambelt - due for a change!!

    My 'new' Puma has done around 70,000 miles & had a new Cambelt about 50,000 miles. Unfortunately this was 10 years ago so I guess well overdue for a change? It's a 1.7 so probably needs someone who knows what there doing - so wondered if anyone could recommend anyone. Ideally in Oxfordshire...

    window motor/regulator

    Finally got a passenger side window motor & regulator! I didn't want to take the old one out until I got another so took it out today. Tested the old motor with the battery & it ended up being Ok. It was the regulator wire which had come off the top pulley which had part of the side broken...

    Peeling clear coat

    I had a couple of small patches on the roof where the clear coat was peeling off - one pea sized and the other about 1cm by 2.5cm, They looked really unsightly but not worth paying for a roof respray- and the rest of the roof too good to risk me trying to rattle can it myself. So I thought...

    1st Puma

    I really liked the Puma when they first came out (especially as Steve McQueen had one!) but only seriously really thought about getting one a few months ago. Lots of rusty wrecks out there but managed to find a half decent one last week - a green 1.7 in pretty good shape without too much rot...
