My Mum’s 2001 Puma Thunder has become surplus to requirement. The car has quite a bit of corrosion and rust on the underside (not unusual for these cars) but passing its MOT hasn’t been a problem, a squeaky belt and the service history is sketchy to say the least. Due to these ‘things’ I’m not sure selling privately is going to be worthwhile?!

So, I was wondering if you guys know of a Ford breakers (Midlands based hopefully) that might want to do a deal? The Thunder alloys are in good shape and the leather interior is spot on too. The car has only done just over 50k miles, so hopefully the engine can still be put to good use, even if past maintenance hasn’t been the best!!

Cheers.

Try the classifieds here - there’s a good fanbase for the Puma and at least you're completely honest about the condition and history,

Yeah, I think that's what we'll do [and on the Facebook Puma groups]. I've found similar Puma's on FB so have a good idea of its worth...we are talking under a grand.

Will be sad to see it go. My Mum bought it nearly new so it's been in the family for over 20 years!
