Puma - my first P&J
Discussion
It's been two months since I got my Puma 1.4, and I've been taking good care of it!
Exhaust was blowing so put a new one on and did gearbox oil change, oil and filter, air filter, spark plugs.
I've discovered detailing! Bought some Maguiars clay and TechWax, spent hours making it shiny...
Yesterday I got the wet-vac and cleaned it inside...I was amazed at the result! It's addictive.
Yesterday I also steam cleaned the engine and underneath the car. Back to uni today in a very clean car!

Very nice, another car on my "really most own one" list at some point, maybe even sooner rather than later.
What are they like on the long haul, up the motorway and stuff?
I've done 2000 miles in mine now, half of those on the motorway. It's great fun on the B roads and solid and responsive on the motorway. Although mine's only the 1.4, it still pull well and doesn't feel a hell of a lot slower than the 1.8 A3 I used to drive. It's the first car I've had that I still look round at when I walk away from it, and I think I always will. It may only be a thousand pound car, but I love it!What are they like on the long haul, up the motorway and stuff?
Really good cars handle on rails, my best mate had a Puma VCT with Turbo conv back in 2003 awesome car(quick vid from prev owner) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onC4JNlsQqw looking nice an clean there Lucie
Basically you spray upholstery shampoo on the seat, then scrub at it a bit with a brush, and then 'wet vac' it. It's basically a hoover that sprays out water when you press a trigger, and sucks the water up as you go. Good bit of kit, and it'd certainly get the water stain out your wife's car seat. you'll be impressed with the result.
