Hi all, I'm new to the forum but I am looking to buy an FRP and this looked a good place to get info and tips. I already own a 1.7 which is good fun but I need just a bit "more"! :D

Well its been a few months and somehow I seem to have acquired two! - a project: 375 which needs a lot of tlc (off to see Chris next week) and a driver: 279 which has been well looked after by Paul in Doncaster. :)

Hi, i'm new to this forum, looking to buy an Frp and going looking at #211 on Friday. Trying to find any history on the car if anyone knows anything. Searching for history online and noticed it has been for sale for a while now. Any help greatly appreciated.

Cheers, Damien.

Yep all I've seen is that it was for sale in January 2013, March 2013 and was owned by someone named Aimz back in 2006 at which point it had squeaky brakes.

Hello, I'm a new member. I actually own a puma 1,4 (slow but fun in the twisties) and I'm interested in all things related to FRP. To actually buy a FRP is a bit difficult because of RHD as I live in Greece! But gathering the parts for a conversion maybe? :mrgreen:

Hi Im not a paid up member but did go to Castle Coombe with around 15 of the club last year, met Neil and his partner who had also travelled up from North Devon (didnt realise anyone lived near me). Had a wonderful time and Im wondering if you are planing something this year.
Regards,
Paul (YZFR1)

Hi Paul Coombe should be on for RS day again and Graham has alert posted up a topic for Rallyday. Glad you enjoyed Coombe last year and I'm sure that sometime during the day we must have met up.

Im New!!!

Signing up as im looking to buy a FRP in the next 5 months if i can (hopefully).
i've had a 1.4 puma and now own a 1.7 puma.

unfortunately i was duped big time when i brought the 1.7 (6 months ago) and there are a host of problems with it including a LOT of rust.

I love driving pumas so much and im looking for a good FRP as its the only car i would replace my current 1.7 with.

i have 5-6 months left on the MOT of my current puma hence the time scale to find a FRP i like.

will be posting a wanted add at some point so (if i can) with more details.

enough waffle... Hi everyone. :D

Hello , just signed up.
I'm picking up L4 FRP (#0008) next week. Haven't been this excited about buying a car for a long time, I'm really looking forward to the 'FRP experience'. :D

Hi, I've recently bought FRP 082 which needs some minor work doing to it. Can't wait to get the car sorted and start to enjoy the experience. :D

Hi all,

Another Newbie to the potential racing puma world. Got myself a genuine shell with the challenge to build up a car.

Just trying to decide a specification on whether i should put a different engine in (got an ST225 5cy engine spare) or build up a 1.7 on throttle bodies.

So no doubt I'm going to be on the hunt for parts soon. Look forward to sharing the build with you all.
