2003 Ford Ka from UK and Ireland - Comments

Nothing has gone wrong with the KA.

Never liked the look of them right from the start. Bought it because it was cheap. Don't like the KA at all a lot of road noise, wind whips about in the back of the KA. Doesn't feel very stable on the roar to me, wobble and bumpy ride. Light weight and flimsy would never buy another. Can never find a comfortable driving position and see all the dash board. The seats are uncomfortable, always have back ache even after a short drive. Reminds me of a toy car Noddy would like it.

Then why did you buy it?

All these things could have been noticed on the test drive and you said it yourself, it's a cheap car, so what do you expect?

No offense, but I cannot believe you bought a car that you diddnt like in the first place. If you start off with bad impressions then your going to continue thinking that its bad. Leave the poor little KA'S alone what do you want for £5,000.

It's true I shouldn't have bought it cos like I said I never did like the look of them. In truth, I don't think you can tell much about any car in 10 minute test drive, I've taken longer than that to buy a pair of shoes or pick something off a menu! Also, it wasn't just my decision which car to buy, my husband thought and still thinks it was a reasonable, inexpensive run about, which I suppose it is.

But I have never changed my opinion because everything I said in my original review is true. Consequently I would not consider buying another. So rest assured folks I won't be making the same mistake twice.

However cheap it is, I feel we wasted our money, as I find it really irritating to drive. Also, if it's such a fab car, why do Ford have an almost permanent offer running on the KA, which I notice they don't have on their other models. Hmm, I wonder why?

I wouldn't buy a Ford Probe either. Why? Call me fussy, but I just don't fancy owning a car with a name that sounds like a surgical instrument. BUT I do love my Fiesta.
