anyway, prior to picking this one up we stopped in a few local car sales places, and the guy asked what we was looking for so we told him, a tigra 1.4 or 1.6.

then he turns around and goes ahhh you have trouble finding one of them, there really really rare and only made them in a 1.7...... after telling him i had viewed several in the last few days he was still adamant that we where wrong and he was right.

some people don't deserve to be in the industry there in!

He was thinking of the Ford Puma.

FAIL.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

You're thinking of the Cougar, or Probe.

The Puma was rare in the 1.7 as it was the Ford Racing Puma one right? With the similar engine to the Zetec S fiesta.

Correct.

The Racing Puma was lightly breathed on, but had that rather lovely wide-body kit on it and was rather rare.

Not that there were that many Pumas made, full stop!
