Unfortunately not.  When we went to buy one I enquired about the Essesse kit but the salesman was very honest and reckons that the suspension is far too harsh for the road more for the track. You can't just have the power upgrade but its not long now until it's out of warranty  Been a great car no trouble at all and great fun for the money. |

A mate had the same combo... Puma 90, 500 Essesse though, I say 'had' as he swapped the 500 (wife's car) for a new 4 door M3 only yesterday! I love the 500

Took one of the rear mudflaps off as it's snapped a bit of the bodywork off, guess I should have done the fix earlier

Rewired the puma breather heater because I was unhappy that the heater (5amp draw) was running whenever the the key was in aux I position or the webasto thermotop C was running, so I took an ignition key position II feed and have wired it into another "heated rear window" switch so it's a manual operation, it only needs to be on when the temperature drops below -20C. The Ultra-gauge (thanks Brian) can be programmed to alarm when the airbox temperature drops below a certain temperature so I have a backup plan
Just a final few jobs before the trip |
