Mine seems to try and get a bigger 'issues list' every time it goes in for a service... Think this time round it might be the longest, going to try and start knocking it together tomorrow... wipers, battery/alternator, paint (again), clutch (again), gearbox (again) just to name a few off the top of my head. Oh, and a grumble from the front end. Oh, and the back door doesn't seem to have any effect on the alarm...
Although on the drive home from the pub tonight it was absolutely faultless!! .. friggin thing!
Sorry to hear about your problems Warren. My experiences are more like bm52. Have now covered 17,600 miles and the only warranty issues have been noisy front wipers ( now replaced under warranty ) and a rear heated window to be replaced in the next few weeks ( top 3 elements not working ) and 1 rusty headlamp bezel and mud flap bracket picked up by dealer and replaced both sides. Mechanically, a smile everyday. Looking forward to the next few months. LANDYWATCH

Glad you're pleased with the puma...I certainly wouldn't swap back to a Td5.
Mine's done 30,000 miles, never broken down, always loved driving it, but it has been in for it's fair share of warranty work - if it had been an older vehicle I'd have shrugged and treated/painted the various corroded bits myself, but I was glad of the warranty for the various mechanical issues. Most will hopefully now be resolved for a while, but I do get nervous about the future cost of gearboxes and clutches - I'm on my third of both, and finally the gear-change is almost ok!! But for how long?? 1953 80
