2001 Ford Puma 1.6 review from UK and Ireland
"A good cheap fun reliable rapid machine!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear quarter panel repainted under warranty as had been sprayed before I bought it and the laquer had started to chip. Ford or the supplying dealer would not admit spraying, but the dealer rectified the problem out of good faith.
Steering wheel is peeling.
General comments?
I have found the car to be 100% reliable.
It handles & steers brilliantly.
Running & servicing costs have been low.
Cabin is only suitable for 2.
Water pours into boot if tailgate is not opened with caution.
