Hi all,

Well....I was SAD to lose my Puma...!

I bought a brand new heavily discounted ST after playing the field with Coopers and and a brief love-affair with the the Alfa MiTo......but you can't argue with a new ST?...Especially at a super low price?

I can safely say...it handles as well as my old Puma...possibly as well as as the'Racing Puma'.

It has a bonzo interior with full leather and all the stuff!

But.....I thought...'This is just a jumped -up Fiesta....nice to drive but nothing special?

I am starting to think otherwise,

Not only does it do as much 'performance' as I would have wanted. (Fantastic road-holding and lower speed acceleration)

But I have had at least 3 other (Admittedly other Ford owners) come up to admire and congratulate my new car.....and I have to say it is no way as 'pretty' as my my old Puma!

So far - So good!

I'll keep you all in touch...!

The certainly has the edge over many other cars, simply because the whole driving experience has been well engineered. There's no doubt as to the little car's purpose in life.

I wish you many hours of fun in your new baby!

Good to hear you're enjoying it. I've had mine nearly four years now, and it still makes me smile.
