  • The 2021 Ford Puma ST is a bit of a weird one - it's the taller, heavier, more expensive brother to the absurdly brilliant Fiesta ST. Join me as I try to find out if it's got any of little brother's madcap charm or if it's just a tryhard SUV that's just wearing a sporty badge.

    I really like this review. You talked about things that I haven’t seen other people talk about when reviewing cars. And you are relatable. I want this car but in black! Thanks

    I love the way this car looks, especially in this colour. I hope Ford is successful with it.
    As always, your review made me chuckle - your channel deserves more views (but swearing isn't good for those algorithms!). In other news, my GR Yaris has arrived and I can now confirm that your reviews are factually accurate, its fantastic!

      @@TimRodieDrivesStuff I got a circuit pack in pure white, because rally cars should be white, shouldn’t they?! It’s not all good though, because I bought a GR04 personalised registration; I hate myself. 🤪

    Unfortunately this is a average car and inside the car is a massive let down for a ST. It’s a Fiesta with a different top on it. Ford will not make a big impact on the SUV market with this PUMA or aka Fiesta

      Because it's based on a Fiesta, with a Fiesta engine, a Fiesta interior, a Fiesta chassis and you could imagine someone walking into a Ford showroom to look at a Fiesta and then seeing this and thinking 'ooo that's roomier, but not much bigger'. Do you see why I compared it to the Fiesta?

      Predictable response. No, thankfully something like this doesn't make me angry, just find it bizarre how people add in letters to words and come up with pronunciations that don't match the word that they are attempting to pronounce, e.g adding and R to Fieata, interesting

    • @mad4tar77
      @mad4tar77 Před 3 lety

      The link you've added provides an audio pronucation of Fiesta. And guess what, no R, they pronounced Fiesta, not Fiestar 🙄.
      When the spelling of the word gets changed, come back to me, until such time, stop digging.

    • @mad4tar77
      @mad4tar77 Před 3 lety

      It doesn't pronounce an R, because there isn't one in the word. Not very bright are you. Learn how to speak English.
