I have seen one drive past when I have been at work, but mine was parked in the lay-by, but never when I have been in my beauty... i've also had mine for similar period of time... I do get some looks from younger Puma drivers, and I got some attention from a Focus RS the other day, but thats as good as it gets, most people dont know whats so special about it
I did see one in Scotland at a McDonalds car park, stopped and said hi, but its hardly local, I put 2,100 miles on the car in 4 days on that trip (since i live south of London)

There is one that is parked up when I am on my way home from work sometimes. It makes me very jealous, even if I can't afford to own one anyway!

LOL. It was months before I saw another one on the road.
Now two or three other people in the area have FRPs, so I see one every couple of months or so.

there are no others by me now and have not seen another one in my area since I saw Darren and Laura well over a year ago. Loving it 
searching is fruitful | I'm a sponge not a mechanic | please do try that if stuck with a Puma problem whilst waiting for a reply | For the Puma fan this read 'The Inside Story Book' is very nice to own sometimes still seen for sale

Owned 347 since May last year and yet to see another on the road except for the day I picked it up from Steve in Wigan and as he drove us back to his house in 347 to do the deal we were overtaken on a dual town road by another FRP. Not made a meet so that's why I guess...
Also have a Subaru SVX which is even rarer than the FRP( believe < 200 ever registered in the UK between 1992-1997) and owned it for 2 years and never seen an other one on the road.

ex-owner of FRP 347 believe it is now R.I.P ! ...... now driving ....................... yes.... a Mondeo diesel. so per my daughter I am now Mondeo man, after Scoobies, BMW M5 etc etc .... ex-wife probably thinks how the not so mighty have fallen !!!

I think half the population of FRPs are in Norfolk
I go there quite often and never fail to see at least one, and that's not counting the one owned by a friend of mine there! Other than that I rarely see them, but I get excited if I see either a Focus RS or FRP on the road
I own the ONLY Ford Racing Ka, and also a Mk2 Fiesta XR2, which means I'm in the same boat, and I love it too

The only FRP's i have seen were one in Warminster, Wiltshire, and one in Tooting, London. the Tooting one was an absolute dog.
Apart from that, i occasionally catch a glimpse of random FRP's near the junctions of the M1, M40 and M25.
Apart from the one's at Pumabuild that is.........
