FORD PUMA REVIEW
Call us on: 01375 276 827
A FRESH START
The Ford Puma isn’t a new venture
for Ford, way back in the late 90s,
Ford released its first Puma, a small
coupé, and even though it looked
good and was a nice drive, it didn’t
sell very well compared to other cars
at the time. Fast forward a couple
of decades, Ford have decided to
take another shot at the Puma and
morphed it into a small SUV.
THE LOOKS
If you’re anything like us here at LMC, then you’ll instantly fall in love with the looks
of the Ford Puma. From its smooth sleek lines, to its feisty looking front, the Puma
holds nothing back when it comes to looks. When compared to its class rivals, the
Puma is a lot more sporty looking, which does give it a visual edge.
Call us on: 01375 276 827
THE TRIMS AND ENGINES
While we’re on the subject of looks, let’s mention the four main trims for the Puma
- entry-level Titanium, sportier looking ST-Line and ST-Line X, and the luxurious
ST-Line Vignale. And, as this is a Ford, keep a look out for special edition versions
that often have different equipment, style and performance attached to them.
Wondering about the different available engines? Of course you are - there are
two different engine options available, the 1.0 Ecoboost mHEV 125 and the 1.0
Ecoboost mHEV 155. Whichever engine you choose, they are both 1.0-litre petrols
with 48-volt mild-hybrid (mHEV) technology - meaning, they have that famous
fuel saving start/stop feature.
THE INTERIOR
Sure, the Puma looks good, it drives good, but how is the quality of the interior? We’re
pleased to report that it passes our judgmental eye. Whichever trim you choose, the
Puma comes with adjustable lumbar support and seat-height adjustment, making
your longer journeys as back pain free as possible. Throughout, the interior feels
solid and high-quality. If you’re lucky enough to get your hands on the rangetopping
ST-Line Vignale, then you can expect full-leather seats throughout. In
terms of space, you and your passengers have plenty of it - you won’t find many
small SUVs that upstage the Puma in this regard.
RIDE COMFORT
In terms of comfort, the Puma’s suspension is smooth when driving along most
road surfaces. Even on the harshest of road surfaces, we didn’t particularly notice
any hard lumps or bumps on our drives. One of the leading cars on our roads
when it comes to ride comfort is the amazing Volkswagen T-Roc, but the Puma
does manage to stand side by side with ease.
Call us on: 01375 276 827
THE TECH
All Pumas come with an 8.0in touchscreen infotainment system that includes
DAB radio, Bluetooth, satellite navigation, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and
smartphone mirroring. As a whole, the 8.0in touchscreen infotainment system
performs extremely well and is a lot easier to use than those found in some rivals.
You’ll be pleased to hear that no matter the trim you choose, you’ll be getting
rear parking sensors. Meanwhile, if you buy the range-topping ST-Line Vignale,
you’ll also get front parking sensors, too. A rear parking camera is available as an
option.
FINAL THOUGHTS
Whatever a review says, it’s important to make your own mind up when buying
your next car by taking it for a test drive. That being said, we can’t recommend the
Ford Puma enough if you’re looking for a great stylish small SUV that won’t let you
down. Whichever trim you decide to go with, you won’t be disappointed.

HELLO 2023
Whether you’re a Formula 1 veteran
or a new viewer thanks to the popular
Netflix Drive to Survive series, you’re
probably excited for the upcoming
2023 season. Will we see Max
Verstappen be crowned the world
champion for the third time? Will
Lewis Hamilton make a comeback?
Will Ferrari be back at the top? Will
the new full-time rookies surprise us
all with a victory? Continue reading to
find out our reasons to be excited for
the upcoming season...

F1 - THE SEASON AHEAD
CATCHING RED BULL
It comes as no secret, or surprise, that both Ferrari and Mercedes have been playing
catch up with Red Bull over the past couple of years - after suffering defeat after
defeat, both teams are now hungrier than ever to grab that championship title.
In 2022, Ferrari started out strong, and throughout the early part of the year, it
looked as if they were onto a winner. Ferrari have recently said ‘goodbye’ to team
principal Mattia Binotto, and ‘hello’ to new team principal ‘Fred Vasseur’ - only time
will tell if that was the right decision or not, but the ex-Alfa Romeo boss has a lot
to prove in 2023. Meanwhile, a lot of eyes are on the struggling Mercedes team -
after a lackluster year in 2022, they must make huge improvements if they are to
compete for the title. Mercedes have the drivers, the experience, but do they have
the car to win 2023? Only time will tell.
Call us on: 01375 276 827
VERSTAPPEN’S RACE FOR A THIRD
WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE
Sure, Max Verstappen didn’t have a lot of competition in 2022 after Charles Leclerc
failed to find his rhythm after the summer break, but that doesn’t mean Verstappen
has a guaranteed third world championship title in his reach - a new year means a
new car, which means new challenges. If a seven time world Championship winner
(Lewis Hamilton) can fall off the podium, so can a two world Championship winner.
Whether you’re a fan of Max Verstappen or not, nobody can deny that he is a
talented driver and owned the 2022 season with ease.
VIVA LAS VEGAS
Many years ago, during a press conference, Lewis Hamilton and Daniel Ricciardo
wished for races in Miami and Vegas - after Miami joined the 2022 race calendar,
it’s now Vegas’ turn. In 2023, the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas joins Formula 1
for the first time. The 14-turn track will run for 3.8 miles (6.12km) with top speeds
of around 212mph (342km/h). Taking place over 50 laps at night in the heart of
downtown, the design features three straights, a high-speed cornering sequence
and a single chicane section - this neon drenched track has a bit of everything. We
cannot wait to watch this one.
Call us on: 01375 276 827
SPRINTS, SPRINTS, SPRINTS
If you didn’t know by now, sprints are 100km dashes to the finish line that take place
on Saturdays - not only are points up for grabs, but the sprint results set the grid for
the race, too. In 2023 there are a total of six planned sprint races - Azerbaijan (Baku
City Circuit), Austria (Red Bull Ring), Belgium (Spa-Francorchamps), Qatar (Lusail
Circuit), the United States (Circuit of The Americas) and Sao Paulo (Interlagos).
BRING ON THE ROOKIES
This year, there are three rookies joining Formula 1 full-time - for AlphaTauri, we
have Nyck de Vries (AlphaTauri), for Williams, Logan Sargeant takes a seat, and
for McLaren, Oscar Piastri makes his full-time debut. New drivers on the grid will
always shake things up a bit, and we’re looking forward to what they’re going
to bring to the track throughout the year. Will we have surprise podium or even
victory from a rookie? We hope so.

THE NUMBERS
ARE IN
It’s no secret, 2022 was full of ups and
downs for the automotive industry
- among other things, we had the
microchip crisis, high petrol prices
(which are ongoing), and the ULEZ
announcements - but, one thing is for
sure, it hasn’t stopped people buying
their dream car. In the following article,
we take a look at the best selling new
and used cars of 2022...
Nissan Qashqai

BEST SELLING
CARS OF 2022
THE TOP 5 BEST SELLING NEW CARS
IN THE UK IN 2022
• Number 1 - The Nissan Qashqai with 42,704 full year new car sales
The Nissan Qashqai has always been a popular crossover among motorists, but
in 2022 it managed to excel. With a huge 42,704 throughout the year, it’s clear to
see that we all still very much love this amazing versatile vehicle that’s big enough
for the whole family, including that dog of yours. There’s even an E-Power hybrid
option available in the latest model, too.
• Number 2 - The Vauxhall Corsa with 35,910 full year new car sales
In 2021, the Vauxhall Corsa was the best selling car in the UK, and still remained a
popular choice in 2022. Amazing finance deals have helped the Corsa to maintain
its popularity throughout the years, and 2022 was no different. The all-electric
variant of the Corsa no doubt helped with its appeal, too.
Vauxhall Corsa
Call us on: 01375 276 827
Tesla Model Y
• Number 3 - The Tesla Model Y with 35,551 full year new car sales
Arriving in the UK in 2022 was the Tesla Model Y, an SUV-like version of the famous
Model 3. The Model Y gained instant attention, not only thanks to its Tesla tag, but
because it combined amazing performance, style, and practicality. In December,
the Model Y was the best selling car in the UK.
• Number 4 - The Ford Puma with 35,088 full year new car sales
We’ve praised the Ford Puma many many times here at LMC, and it looks like
you motorists agree with us. If you’re looking for a great car that has all the syle
