The Bolesworth Castle May 2024 Classic & Performance Car Auction

 
  Lot 38
 

2001 Ford Puma
Only 28,000 miles from new

Registration - Y584 JEC

Chassis No. - WF0CXXGAEC1P72001

M.O.T. - May 2025

Odometer - 28,900

An increasingly rare and highly desirable model, this late example of Ford’s Puma compact coupe is presented in silver with grey cloth interior. Famously fun to drive, this Puma is fitted with a 1.7-litre 16V four-cylinder petrol engine and five-speed manual gearbox. ‘Y584 JEC’ is exceptional considering it has had just one lady owner in the almost 23 years since it rolled off the production line, and has an incredibly low indicated mileage too – only 28,900 miles are shown on the Puma’s odometer.

The Puma comes with a Ford main dealer service history, original purchase invoice, three keys, and a folder full of receipts and invoices for work carried out – all handbooks and the owners manual are included too. A rare rust-free example, ‘Y584 JEC’ has been dry-stored for eight years in a heated garage, and will come with a 12 month MOT. The vendor considers all aspects of this Puma as being in ‘excellent’ condition, covering both the powertrain – engine and transmission – and other areas such as electrics, interior, paint, and bodywork.

Ford launched the Puma in 1997 as a three-door coupe in 1997, based on the Mk IV Fiesta supermini. Front-engined and front-wheel drive, the Puma quickly made a name for itself as an excellent driver’s car in the press, and that was before the Ford Racing Puma arrived in 1999 for a limited run of 500 units, featuring more power, stronger brakes, and upgraded suspension – tuned by Ford’s Rally team. Production ran until mid-2002, with no direct replacement, though the Puma name has been relaunched on Ford’s compact crossover, launched in 2019.

· One-owner, low mileage example of Ford’s characterful Puma.

· Offered in excellent condition inside and out.

· Dry stored for eight years in a heated garage.
