Any regrets?
Despite all my moaning, whinging and general griping about the utterly shyte gearbox in my Puma, I absolutely love it... Does anyone have any regrets after buying one? ... ,-------,

Bloody hell, no Mr. Green Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...

No regrets.It's a joy to drive even though the design is so old.They clunked 50 years ago,and still do.So What!I'm currently rebuilding a 90-V8, and will be able to do my Puma many years down the line.Try that with another vehicle and there parts availability.

I have recently sold my 2009 here,but my new one is waiting for me in South Africa,same colour too. Bow down Puma 110 SW

None whatsoever.
I could eulogise about this vehicle as would have MOG grabbing the vegetable juice fast but as I've got to know its construction and design through fixing a leak and various squeaks and rattles I've come to the conclusion that its a piece of automotive sculpture that looks as awesome today as it did in 1948. The only other modern transport icon that fits into that category IMHO is Concorde.

The only regret I had with my 07 Puma was selling it to help fund a house purchase ....

With the new Puma - none whatsoever Thumbs Up John

Regrets? I've had a few, But then again, too few to mention. But through it all, when there was doubt, I ate it up and spat it out, I planned each charted course - Each careful wheel along the byways. My friends, I'll say it clear; I'll state my case of which I'm certain, The record shows I took the blows And kept it anyway, Original Member Pie n Pea Club.
