Yep delighted, that was definitely a post written after too much sun and cider, all true though. I haven't got a clue what you could replace an FRP with without spending serious money.

I've owned 281 since 2011 and originally used her as my daily driver before deciding the Puma was no replacement for my Ibiza, it was just too firm and low geared. I ran her as a toy for a while until a couple of years ago when I couldn't justify the cost of running her and only doing 800 miles...

Unfortunately I bought mine for everyday use but I just can't do it. It's one of the most special cars I've ever driven. I should have bought one with more miles on it. Driving it to work and back seemed like a waste. So I bought a cheap 306 for everyday use.

On top of that I was working in Byfleet and a couple of months later...

I've received mine, a handy guide with a lot of useful info in one place, thanks. Looking forward to the next one.

Im the new owner of 281.

I was also looking at the Puma speed discs as I get a bit of a pulse through the pedal, has anyone tried them and what are the downsides?

Hello everybody, I've just bought FRP 281 to replace my old Seat Ibiza 1.8t, only collected the car yesterday so early days. I've got the cam belt to do tomorrow then it should be good to go. Very impressed with the handling, it's fitted with the RPJ dampers, LSD and some decent tyres. The...
