Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
5 years on, it still looks fresh from the day it left the production line.
Costs
Cheap insurance and cheap parts. One of the main factors I considered when I was looking for a new car.

On the road
Driving
Extremely enjoyable, plus it puts a smile on your face!
Performance
Nimble and nippy. Great for town driving and that odd occasion on the motorway. However, with air con fitted, it can make the engine slow and harder to pull.

Living with it
Reliability
So far the only problem I have had with my Ka is a flat tyre, and it only cost me £35 to fix. No other problems.
Image
Cheeky, fun and stylish. Ok, it's not everyone's cup of tea but it's certainly different from other little cars.
Comfort
Would be good with adjustable steering as I'm 6ft, but apart from that fine. Head room is good and it's larger than you think inside.

Security and Service
Security
Has an immobiliser fitted as standard, but an alarm would be an advantage too.
Service
The dealership I bought my car from has been very friendly and the service is extremely good.
