depends,
If you are prepared to do a bit of work, then you can probably get there in budget, I bought mine, had to have the drivers seat squab recovered and a bit of paint on the arches and that was under £5k all in with 74k on the clock.
If you want a minter to start with you will probs need to look more at about £6k
Quite a few people on here know a good few of the cars, so if you are looking at one in particular, post the number and you should get some honest feedback

Most of those things i am familar with from the FRS, the 4 piston Brembos corroding and needing helicoil inserts for new bleed screws being something similar, and the 18 month waiting list on wings and bumpers lol.
Never driven a puma, but if they handle better than the RS with the Quaife diff then i'd be pleasantly surprised.
I think I will pay up, as I really want to search for information before parting with cash, I know a lot is standard which is something that interests me as it means there is less to go wrong, and if it does then its easy to rectify, a lot of the RS is so bespoke that not a lot of people seem to understand it!
Really on the look out for something similar mileage (80,000) and don't really want to pay anything over £5k regardless of exclusivity, they won't start increasing in value for another 10 years at a guess, and I don't want to have to instantly deal with rusted out rear arches or bubbles everywhere and corroded brake lines etc...
Do you think I am asking too much for too little outlay?
