Pumas - some of us have moved on cos the old dears are getting expensive to fix, others are persevering with their 150,000 mile troopers. Some of us have been lucky enough to have found low mileage garaged-all-their-life rust-free miracles.
Whether we currently own, or have owned, or ever since first seeing the Steve McQueen advert wanted to own, a Puma - I think it's fair to say we all love the buggers.
Dal/Cherie - Have you ever thought about emailing all your past and present members to put together a petition to Mr Ford to see whether they might resurrect the small sporty 2+2 coupe 15 years after it was first introduced / 10 years after it finished production? How many people does it take to go, "If you bring back the Puma, and it's anywhere near as good as the original, I will almost certainly buy one" before they'd consider it?
A ten year hiatus and triumphant return worked for... err... Take That? Perhaps I need a better argument than that, but I still don't think there's anything out there which offers the driving thrills, economy (40mpg / group 12 insurance) and sensibly-sized boot of the Puma.
