With the announcement of the demise of the Fiesta, can the Puma take the reigns as the go-to car of choice for previous hatchback customers? If you want something that ditches some modern tech in favour of good old engineering and fun, this may be the one for you.

2 months ago i bought a blue ST Line X 155 HP with glassroof, Winter package and Design package inluding 19" wheels and bigger spoiler. Lovely car, makes a lot of fun!

@THEGHOSTMAKER1 9 месяцев назад

Bigger spoiler? Doesnt the st line and st line x have that same spoiler? Just orderd a st line x in grey matter paint. Are you happy with it

@nigelandrews5617 Год назад

I have the ST LINE X VIGNALE auto in Agate Black. Great car, very good fuel economy in Eco mode, depending on driving style have achieved 62.3mpg, avg 47 to 53mpg. Sport mode fun to drive!! 10/10!

@mrsb3650 11 месяцев назад

I bought a 3 year old st line x 125bhp a month ago. I love it. I drive it mostly in sport mode and find I'm getting around 430 miles from a full rank (42 litres). I've just topped up again and driving in normal mode to see if there's a fuel mileage difference and so far it's saying 490 miles so it will be interesting to see what I actually get out of it. My next test will be using a full tank in eco mode.

@michaelgaughan4609 Год назад

Great review, I’ve had mine for three months, same spec but with 18 in wheels. You get the best of both worlds, on a decent run in eco mode I am getting 55-60 mpg and on B roads in sport mode it drives like a sports hatchback. I had fast fords back in the 70’s but this is the best car that I have owned.

@andyhepburn6855 Год назад

Really helpful review thanks!

Mines coming for September 1st. It's one that has just come from the factory and apparently has all the bells and whistles. It's currently sitting at Dagenham docks awaiting customs clearance. Megabox? Stuff that crap about hosing muddy boots down in it or extra space for shopping mines going to be full of spare wheel!

@RobbieRobRS Год назад

On the sunroof rattle, I found that a piece of trim was slightly out of place. If anyone has that rattle. try pushing the ceiling trim a bit and I heard mine pop back into place, and it stopped the noise :)

That smile and grin on your face fiveteen minutes into the video is exactly what happened to me when I test drove a 155PS 6 speed manual Vignale version of the Puma for over an hour. Ended up ordering one that very same day (July 2022) and it's due for delivery in January, can't wait! Great review.

Thanks Dan for the review, any mechanical issues that you seen/foreseeing ?, mostly comparing the puma with Yaris cross on my end.

@ItsDanLatham Год назад

Both good options, the yaris would probably be more reliable long term but probably not as engaging to drive overall. Might be worth checking both out at a dealership

Drum brakes in the rear, really 😮 If i remember correctly the e-assist is 11Kw and 40Nm. (Total 210Nm now was 200 in overboost in the non MHEV 125HP) I wished this color was available for my Focus.

I've had many new Fiestas over the years and was upset when Ford ended the type, but moving over to the Puma has been a big plus point a great replacement to the Fiesta.

How can an ST Line be the top of the line when the ST sits at the top?

@ItsDanLatham 11 дней назад

The ST is a different car completely, and not part of the standard Puma range. It’s common for brands to separate the performance version of the car completely from the standard range.

@theron169 10 дней назад

@@ItsDanLatham It literally is the same can and is there in the line up on Ford's web page. It's the top of the Puma range.

@pauljazzman408 Год назад

Why does everyone want a small SUV? Some of us still want a small hatch. I had a focus and now a fiesta. I just can’t find parking space for a bigger car. I’ll just go and get a VW ID2 if Ford don’t want my money when I have to buy an electric. But until then petrol is actually cheaper and has more range.

@stevenkillington5041 3 месяца назад

The 155 is a lot quicker and bundles more torque evrywhere

@peterlaurence-couzens8913 11 месяцев назад

I’ve had the misfortune to drive 2 of these (when my cmax was in for service), both basic titanium models. Wow, bone shaking ride, and mega road noise along with cheap scratchy plastics everywhere (yes I know they were the base models, but still…..). Tupperware box instead of spare wheel, and then there’s mega bill for wet belt replacement (if it doesn’t break first and brick the engine) looming for the second owners. Having said that there’s plenty of them on the road so I guess lots of people like that sort of thing. Takes all sorts etc :-)

@adriangheata26 8 месяцев назад

This dumb UK trend where people present cars but they film themselves speaking when driving it instead of actually showing us the car. I will never understand it. Seems nonsense. Like we are not here to see you, we are here to see the CAR rolling.

@ItsDanLatham 8 месяцев назад

That’s not the point of the video at all, the purpose of this video is to tell people about the car and what it’s like to live with. Not to mention, it’s incredibly difficult to capture good rolling footage of the car (as a solo videographer) There are plenty of videos online of what the car looks like visually in motion, and I include plenty of B-roll shots in all my reviews of what the styling and features of the car look like. You are the first person ever (in over 2 million views) to share this opinion. That being said, each to their own, I’m sorry to disappoint!

@adriangheata26 8 месяцев назад

@@ItsDanLatham I am not saying the view wasn't informative, but you can film it from a 1st person point of view (show us the wheel and dashboard while you are driving it). You can talk about it at same time, can't you? That's what I meant.

@ItsDanLatham 8 месяцев назад

@@adriangheata26 yes but for me a POV video like that is something I would seek out purposely, again there will be plenty of those around. I do occasionally film those. Personally I prefer watching and filming this style, hence why they’re so popular here. Even the big TV shows in the UK use this style of review.
