2003 Ford Ka Style review from UK and Ireland
"I love it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing!
General comments?
Not for everyone I guess, but has never let me down. Does exactly what it says on the tin!
I've had this car for coming up on 4 years now and it has done just over 40,000 miles. I have not had any problems with it yet...
I have just had the brakes replaced which is the first major outlay I've had on it as eveything else was covered by warranty.
When I took it back to the dealer for it's 3 year service they told me the suspension needed a lot of work which they then failed to carry out properly. I took it to another garage who told me the car didn't even need this work done to it. I have had more problems with the car dealer than with the car.
This car may be cheap and cherrful and quite often people laugh when you tell them what type of car you have but it does everything I need it to. It is safe and reliable, nippy and easy to drive. It's cheap to run and to look after and believe it or not you can actually squezze quite a lot of stuff in there! I'm sure it's not that great for tall people or as a family car but since I'm small and don't often have many passengers it suits fine. Having read the other comments I just wanted to leave this to prove that there are some happy Ka owners. I will buy one again next time around, I am very happy with my Ka!
