Ford StreetKa 1.6i Luxury 2d (2004/53) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
No No No, I paid £10,995 for mine, the values are falling through the floor, depreciation is a large issue with this vehicle - (so much for Ford ""UNDER-SUPPLYING"" to retain vehicle exclusivity)
Costs
Drinks petrol like a goodun (8v technology again guys and girls)
-
On the road
Driving
The chassis is hugely forgiving, it delights on the corners and begs to be pushed just that little more, has "hot hatch" cornering abilities and manners. However, engine is bad - 8v technology is not the way forward, gearchange is smooth and pleasing.
Performance
Good on the twisties, but you will struggle on the straight, take a drive before you buy!
-
Living with it
Reliability
No problems whatsoever!
Image
Pleasing, I am a year 2 business student at Uni. I like pulling up outside the pub /club /wine bars in the city with this little beast!
Comfort
Good, Leather heated seats are pleasing, air con is nice, however, not really for long journeys. (2-3 hours at most i reckon)
-
Security and Service
Security
Good, never had any problems, cat1 keeps insurance low and the boot is like a safe, try getting in to it without the keys!
Service
Ford are useless - never ever ever again!
