My Puma track car...
Considering selling up as lost interest and to fund my Land rover project.
Not 100% decided yet, but cant see me using it much now, no longer motivated by people around me etc as they are all family people now.
Really don't know where to think to begin with on this one, there's some high quality expensive bits on it, but I know it will never generate the money to cover those costs, but then its got to be worth more than a standard one.
I guess if anyone has any price info on similarly specced cars?
A couple of pics
Just some of the main parts on it, don't want to go into massive detail as this isn't a for sale thread
16inch Speedlines
Wilwood 6 pot 300mm brakes
Quaiffe Diff - FRP gearbox both only done about 1000miles
Custom Cages 6 point cage, converted to bolt in so can be removed.
AP coilovers
Lexan side windows
Rear discs
R888's only done one session.
No tax or test, and car has done about 90k
PS: Not splitting

Surely Ian is your man to speak to?
Not be better just splitting it? I know you said your not but I'm sure you would make twice the money in parts as to a full car

The problem is I fancy a new project, but I dont fancy it that much to have to start taking cars to bits just to get a few more quid.
Id rather just keep it

You are going to have to find the right buyer for your car. I loved it when it was pretty standard and clean. With leather and on those ford wheels i would have paid up to £1750, maybe £1800. As i say, it's what people want!

Put it online as a £3500 rally car. Looks super clean. Someone might pay it. Might not be a quick sale.
