That's it, a bigger turbo. You also get rear discs on the 155 variants.

Yes, they changed to that a couple of years ago. Cost cutting I guess.

Drums probably less chance of corrosion. Lots of posts regarding disc corrosion and I'm sure that would mean an mot failure.

I believe the comment as regards the brakes is not universally correct for the 155 (may depend on year/spec level). Although when I ordered mine they seemed to be fitted with discs all around, as delivered there were drums on the rear.

That’s interesting as have not checked mine as assumed it would be discs all round these days.

As you have had your Puma for 2 months I thought you might have noticed 🤔

Just shows it makes not difference really. Though I must admit, I also thought you would have noticed... :lol:

It's one of those things that would be impossible to miss when washing your car. :)

Well I just checked and I have disc’s all round, hence the reason I had not noticed, due to having and expecting there to be discs fitted to the rear.

I admit I would have been alarmed if I had drums and not realised when washing.
