Just to add – I've had my 1.7 puma since 2001 and got a baby coming in June.
I think it's such a great car that I want to keep it – also reckon it's value to others is far too low so not worth selling it – maybe the group 12 insurance doesn't help that? I used to drive it hard at times and found it handled OK if the back broke away but now I'm more sensible. Never had a problem with it though it's only done 67k.
I think we need two cars really so will keep mine and get something a bit more practical for the other car. Trouble is wife can't drive yet so would rather not have two cars until she can so have looked to see if the Puma would work and a few searches suggest possible options for car seats. Would have to get something for proper trips I'm sure.
