New Puma...long wait!

Hi All,
I have just placed an order for a Puma, ST Line with 19'' alloys although I wont see it until November.
I have downsized from a 19 plate Kuga with a 1.5 ecoboost, nice motor a bit gutless but really nice to drive. Don't really need a big car now.
Will I regret making this change? Bear in mind my age, clue in user name!

Hi, Welcome to the forum.
I don't think you'll regret it. I tried a Kuga before buying the Puma, but thought it a bit too big for what I needed.

I downsized from a Porsche Macan to the Puma last December and have no regrets. I was finding it too large and it was getting little use as I no longer had a daily commute and lockdown reduced use even more.
The quality and engine are both fine for the use it gets.

The suspension, power and comfort are worse of course but I drive so little now it really makes no difference. The dashboard is better and getting mid 40s to the gallon rather than low 20s certainly helps.

Hi,
You'll not regret it.
I too came from a Kuga to a Puma, cabin is obviously smaller and my ST doesn't have a sunglasses holder. Centre console stowage is also a bit limited in the Puma.
I hope you enjoy the Puma when it finally arrives!
