Hey guys after a 6 month gap since selling my last puma to start my company up, I am now in a situation to be able to buy a replacement puma for myself!
I have spotted this 57 plate example with 130k in Edinburgh and hope to fly up to collect it and drive it back to Wales, its priced at £13,500 which I think is a bargain! It's not a XS model so no air con or leather seats but I guess I can add those over time! the reason it is priced well is the rear door and rear tub floor need some work but mint everywhere else and has had a lot spent on maintenance.

I sold my grey caged USW because of the house I bought in 2020 and sold the other 2 USW I had since then because they had far too much money tied up in em to thrash (over 20K)
Ive been waiting for a cheap good condition one to pop up and looks like it has! 
Ive got a full external roll cage waiting to go on in the shed plus some nice black banded wolf rims on 285 75 16 KM3 and some nice LOF bits
I will then add the air con system and leather as thats the only thing missing from it being a county model the only thing against it is it's not a USW but a CSW ive just discovered but ill still purchase it for now and see how I get on. I can then always buy a USW in the future and sell this one on  2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold)

I got some new photos from the seller
Im going to collect it this friday (EXCITED!)
it comes with the awning and a full camping kit inc stove, fridge, pots pans etc etc etc tons of stuff all new. It looks bloody lovely! Unfortunately the roof tent is being left behind as thats a £1600 extra and I dont think I can quite stretch to that! Unless someone wants to buy it and I'll bring it down as its in Edinburgh and im in Wales. It is brand new and retails for £2100 Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold) 2015 Discovery 4.5 Black pack Firenze red XS 2008 Corris Grey 110 XS USW (sold) 2011 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold) |

Flew up to Edinburgh and got the train to Fife to Collect my 110, drove it 300 miles to cumbria for a overnight then drove the rest of way next day after a hearty breakfast
It didnt have any mot, it needs a rear door and it had a hole in bulkhead I wasn't told about and normally id have walked away but being so far north I just had some more money off! It does have mega bucks spent on the mechanicals and drove perfect, new transfer box and clutch and full service etc 2000 miles ago, brakes were perfect and paint work was pretty damn good nick. Im going to start by MOTing it tomorrow and putting my private plate on and then removing the livery and get my sign writing on. Then ill be removing the roof rack, winch bumper and A Bar and and also the momo steering wheel and boss and lock as I prefer the standard XS wheel, The full external roll cage will be fitted after I fix the door and bulkhead hole and replace the floor in rear tub. I also need to find a decent set of wheels and tyres Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold) 2015 Discovery 4.5 Black pack Firenze red XS 2008 Corris Grey 110 XS USW (sold) 2011 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold) |

Ive done 2500 miles since picking it up from scotland 3 weeks ago without any dramas
ive been too busy to do a service on it but hope to do one next week along with the air intake/box mod to help it breathe better. Ive removed and sold the roof rack in preparation for the roll cage and have added some temporary wheels to replace the boosts for now until I find the wheels and tyres I want for it! I have found a matching rear door to replace the rusty one and collect that tomorrow along with a LOF HD clutch, HD output shaft and a rear storage drawer for the boot area so the rearmost seats in the boot will be getting removed and sold. It definately wants a rear crossmember as thats shot with a few holes in it

Hi clay, the wheels are indeed steel, 16" but not sure on offset but do stick out of the arches on 265 tyres, they are also for sale as im going to ET0 black wolfs on 255 85 16 KM3 I think
I replaced the rotton rear door for a rust free replacement in the same colour only took me a hour by myself with the help of a garden chair with some wood to balance the new door on to get the hinge bolts into the door, love how easy they can be which almost never happens
and yes I know that lone rear corner bumperette is looking sad as its coming away from its non existant mounting point on the rear x member which has rusted away!

Hi Ken
I'm looking for a set that you've got there, but they have to be 16x7 ET 0 
Those ones you have must be something like 16x8 ET25 if they are sticking out a bit  1996 Golf Blue 300Tdi 110 Pick up.
