There's a few guys at work who take the mickey out of my FRP to get on my nerves, I used to bite to it but I don't now as I know it'd beat anything in our works car park around a track/b road. Never bought it to impress anyone else but myself :D

Advice on what to do with a screwed (low miles) VR6 engine..
Mave replied to Jim's topic in Engine Bay
If you're in any doubt Jim then you shouldn't buy the car, I guess you already know that 'it'll only cost £xxx' always goes out the window and it'll be more. You said you're in a bit of debt so no point making it worse, you can wait and save, surely? : - D Plus what caused the engine to be borked in the first place? -
I like to think it's a bit more special, it's number 123 :D Not got LSD on it, only 80 customers wanted them. And AC is pretty good, I never saw the point of it at first, but when you want cool air, and to be able to listen to music on a hot day, it's a god idea to use it rather than open the windows!

LOL, that old chestnut eh? I give it 6 months tops before you've got an ecotec valve and a lowering kit on it :camp: It looks like a minter anyway dude, and I bet it's a fair bit nippier than your old valver, enjoy 8) EDIT - Got any pics of the interior Lol, don't tempt me. I just love it as it is anyway! Feels so more sorted than the 16v in every way, I love the gearchanges too, really sharp and quick. Just everything about it, I can't get over just how chuckable it is and yet it doesn't feel like it's going to give in. Not took any of the interior as I'm a crap at taking pics really, it's the same as this though :) Mmm, suede 8) Andy> too right ! Though the downside is when people say "You drive a puma then?"...:lol: And I sound a right chav if i reply "no it's a racing one" :lol: And the Puma forums aint as good as this one either! :?

Thanks! Skinny - nah, keeping it completely standard, it's already a bloody good car and I'mma keep it that way!
-
You might recognise the location ;)
-
Well, picked one up today. And I'm in love!
-
But the police don't, and a blowing exhaust means it aint solid, then : - P Just imagine the amount of cars they pull over that ARE dangerous, I for one am glad they do do it, if it happened to me, yeah, I'd be peed off but I can see why.

(Copied and pasted from another forum I just wrote this on) Today was meant to be a good day, a day when I bought my new car and boy, I was waiting all week for this. But oh no. Let's go back to last Sunday. I went to look at a Ford Racing Puma. £30 to get there via a mate. Saw the car, and it was utterly perfect. Low miles, FSH, 12 months MOT, private plate and at a decent price too. Took me for a spin and all was ok. Afterwards; Me: "Yeah, I really want it now, I can get you the money on Thursday and come up then, will phone you on Wednesday to sort a time" Him: "Ok sure" Me: "I can give you a deposit now.." Him: "Nah, don't worry mate, I'm in no rush to sell anyway, just phone me on Wednesday and we'll sort out a time"" Me: "Great, ok" We shook hands and off I went, happy as a bee. Come Wednesday, I phoned him and there was no answer. So I left an answer phone message as I knew he said he usually goes out on a Wednesday night. So today there was no reply from him, and I phoned him again at 12:30am, no answer. Then about 15 minutes later my phone called and I didn't know the number calling; Me: "Hello?" Him: "Hi mate, it's xxxxx here." Me: "hi:" Him: "Just phoned to say unfortunately I sold the puma" Me: "Oh, alright.." Him: "Yeah sorry mate, a lad came on Monday and gave me the cash, as I needed the money badly" Me: "Oh right" Him: "If I'd taken the deposit from you I'd have kept it for you" Me: "Well, I offered you a deposit the day I came and saw it" Him "Yeah, I know, sorry mate" Me: "Bye" Fucking prat. Really, ultimately fucked me off that. So, he sold it on Monday and left it 3 whole days before bothering to tell me, my dad took a day off today aswell so he could take me there as soon as I finished work. What a fucking waste that was. The fact that he said if he'd taken a deposit he'd have kept it for me, when I'd offered him one anyway, how useful was that info. Finally, how can someone go through "Not really in a rush to sell" to "Needed the money desperately" in the space of 24 hours? Fucking THANKS. I can't find any Ford Racing Pumas of that standard at the moment now, and I need one asap, well there is one, but it's £800 over budget. My dad was gutted aswell, but he told me to take it as experience.

Yep! :) edit: \/ Will do Sonic, can't wait lol.

You'd enjoy it Walesy, you would. :D

Have you injured yourself at work that wasn't your fault?
-
Viewed one today and it's utterly perfect. Picking it up on Thurs :D

Thanks all. Like I said, people who won't drive a car because of image care way too much. Going to stretch for a Racing Puma instead, as I know getting the 1.7 normal one will just not be enough and I'll just want the Racing one anyway :lol:.
