Ford Ka in general Reviews

Okay so i passed my driving test a few months ago now and have been looking everywhere for a car, my first car. I looked in the local papers, went and visited garages and also went on the internet and used sites such as auto trader. I knew i wanted something small and easy to run, as well as being cheap for my first car. I was at first looking ...

Bought my first car soon after obtaining my licence late 2004, new KA Collection with air-con for under 7k with 1 year's insurance. Bargain considering for a decent second-hand KA, I was looking to spend 4-5k + approx 1k for insurance with being a new driver. Also other costs to consider on second-hand cars is the road tax, road side assistance ...

I recently bought a 3 year old Ford Ka for £1500. Its an absolute bargain. Its the style spec which means it has colour coded bumpers rather than the grey ones on the standard Ka. It also has a factory fitted CD player. The car itself is great. The hadling is superb and it feels just like a huge go-kart especially around tight bends and ...

I bought my 2003 Ka nearly 18 months ago and have been very happy with it. I'd previously had an L reg Fiesta, but wanted something that was going to last me and not need so many repairs. The Ka appealed to me due to being small and easy to park (you know what us women are like at parking!). The price was also a bonus. The car handles ...

Now, Can I start by saying I don't know much about cars in general. I have owned my little Navy blue S Reg (1997) Ford Ka for 15 months now and I could sing its praises all day if you would listen! He has only done just over 5000 miles, starts perfectly in all weather, is compact yet spacious at the same time. He has 3 doors - the boot ...

Have only had my 1997 Ka four months but I am loving it more and more. Its only got 50000 miles on the clock and runs like a dream. It always starts first time and is smooth and fun to drive. I have used it on long motorway drives to Newcastle and Manchester and it has not felt out of its depth. I did find the tyre noise too intrusive but this has ...

Once I passed my test, I treated myself to a standard Ford Ka. I bought my KA brand new which is why I guess I never had any problems with it. It was a lovely little Purple Bubble as I liked to refer to it as and loved this car. I bought this as my mum had bought one and I test drove it and just fell in love with its small size and ease to ...

I've had my trusty Silver Ford KA 'V' Reg for just over a year and a half now. It's my first car and I have to say it's a very very nice and easy car to drive. When I was looking to buy my first car, I was very particular with my model, colour and year!! I got my dad looking out for any cars coming into his work place (he's workshop ...

I have had my KA for about a year and a half now, i am a student and this is my first car. I cant praise this car enough! It is a excellent first car! mine is a 96 model so its quite old, but i have never had any techanecal faults! (touch wood). My KA has no power steering but it is still easy to park and monouver. I think KA's make ...

As we had no car we had to hire a car to go to Torquay on holiday. The cheapest one available to us was the Ford Ka at £160 for the week. I wasn`t too happy when I found out what car I was getting as I think they look odd and ugly and I have always seen them as a bit of a "girls" car but I had been a passenger in one before and found ...

As a student this is the first car I have owned. It is an S-reg silver ford Ka2 with 80K miles on the clock, and has been a good little car. As any young male I suppose you are looking for a smart-looking nippy car that looks the part. The car itself has all that you need. The 1.3 engine doesnt lack power and you certainly can ...

The ford Ka is the perfect car for people who simply need it to make short journeys every now and then, for example in and around town. It does not use a great deal of petrol, and filling it up is relatively cheap. The insurance is very cheap compared to other cars, so it is great for a first car or a learner. The overall drive of the car is very ...

Ive just sold my ka which i owned for just over a year, but it was no girly ka. Being young and a bit of a boy racer i modded my Ka out to the max! Why? well it wasnt a normal car that everyone drives thats why! My ka was smooth it gripped better than any car except the odd kit car. It was fast as it was Turbo'd, it looked sweet as it had great ...

This was my first car which I'll be replacing tomorrow. It was ideal to learn in, with the good visibility making it like driving in a goldfish bowl (in a good way!). For a small car the engine is actually quite big, which combined with its low weight makes the Ka very nippy. Despite this however the car struggles to get to high speeds, ...

It was a nice sunny day early in May when I found my self standing on the forecourt of a ford dealer surrounded by cars of all models and sizes, I was quite sure It was going to be either the Ford Ka or the Ford Fiesta. I am still learning to drive at the moment, something I?ve often thought of doing but never really got around to but ...

I have had my Ka since September as it was a present from my parents for my 17th since i have had it i cant fault it. I passed my test in my Ka on the 8th january this year and since then i there hasnt been a day i havn't driven it and loved driving it. I have the base model Ka in Bright Red with black bumpers its an X-reg (2001) since ...

I bought my silver KA when it was six month old - it had been a ford demo car and had only done 6K miles. The first two or three years of ownership were pretty trouble free but be warned after this time thing start to go wrong. The first problem has been the body work - i noticed slight blisters in the paint work, when i scratched at the ...

I have been the owner of a ford Ka2 for around 11 months now. Overall it's a great little car and I have had no reliability issues even with the car having already travelled 30,000km's of high speed country driving. Australian driving conditions are tough, rough roads with extremes in weather. Driver comfort is excellent, plenty of ...

Ford ka - Advantages: Fast, Excellent steering, Good for a run about car - Disadvantages: Doesn't look good, Expensive insurance, not enough space

When my old car finally conked I had no choice but to find something new. By chance, my local Ford Dealership were doing a special deal on a used Ka, so I went along to have a look. I ended up buying the particular Ka as it has low mileage, one owner and was only 12 months old, and more importantly it was cheap. My view was that if it ...
