Ford Ka 1.3i Collection 3d (2000/W) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
OK they're quite cheap, but they depreciate really quickly.
Costs
Petrol not great. Had old shape micra before and that was far better on costs. Steering column replaced at 60k miles. Check other reviews, many mention this fault. Ford would have you believe 'this never happens' as my local dealer said.

On the road
Driving
Not the most responsive drive. Got to work at it.
Performance
OK for town driving. Did OK on motorway but not fab.
-
Living with it
Reliability
No major problems, but only owned 5 months.
Image
Girly. Studenty. Not 'look at me'. Bought it as I'm a student and it was a cheap option
Comfort
I'm 5ft 5 and manage OK, but taller drivers are like sardines.

Security and Service
Security
Not the hardest car to steal, but would you want to?!
Service
Local ford dealer was helpful until cheque cleared! Well, that's Ford for you. Did I mention that they forgot to mention the major bodywork repair (following crash) that was accidentally omitted from log book?
