Default #### 2001 Puma 1.7 45000 miles, may consider swap + cash for BMW ####

My wife's beloved Ford Puma 1.7 for sale because she is getting an Octavia vRS as a company car. She calls it her "kitten car" and will be very cross to know I've advertised it...



Registered 19/7/2001 Y plate

Service history complete except 20K service was a few thousand miles late.

Has MOT July 19 2005.

Usual spec includes ABS, power steering, airbag, leather steering wheel, electric windows, remote central deadlocking, remote boot opening.

Metallic steel blue.
Lux pack: CD Player, aircon, heated windscreen

Was stolen recovered in 2001 on Cat D register. Priced accordingly. We've had this car for the last two years since it was about 18 months old, nothing has gone wrong. Drives like a dream. Decent tread on Toyo T1-S tyres, geometry has been done.

Overall good condition, with the odd small mark on alloys and the odd stone chip, small scratch, nothing out of the ordinary for a car of this age. No rust.

Mileage is 45000. Cheap insurance group 12.

As Evo magazine say:
+ Everything - Nothing

It really is that good, but we don't need three cars and she had to have the company car.

I may consider part exchanging against something interesting for me as a cruiser..... I can't make my mind up, but BMW 328/330, 530/540 have crossed my mind.

£5995, but realistic and open to offers.

No you dont
Message was
Will dealers still accept a Cat D as a trade in or does car always have to be sold privately. Just that I'm thinking about it and have a 328i SE Touring (V reg) I'm looking to change. I tend only to keep cars for a year or less so would make a difference.
Thanks

Dealer sold it to me, presume some dealers would take it back. This may be a route I take.

My Scooby appears to be reliable so I am going to try to sell this again, £4500. Now has about 46000 miles. I always give it a run every few weeks and it always starts purfectly

Not hugely interested in the BMW but I can always have my arm twisted, must be at least 6 cylinders though and under £25000.
