i am considering a StreetKa, any good or bad points

[Chloe.morris]

i want the winter editoin so it has a hardtop in the winter and am looking to spend �7000.00. I have heard it is not so good on MPG? Is this right - i do about 30,000 a year?
thanks

Stay away from the KA., weve had a few on our fleet and never again. For �7,000 I would go for a focus or somehting else in similar size (Civic, Golf, Polo, Fabia)

The Ka is one of Fords worst selling vehicles, and its ugly too.

If you are doing 30k a year, I would go for a vehicle with a quality engine, so a German car (golf) or a Jap car (Honda, Nissan etc etc)

Get a StreetKA - they are gorgeous, great comfy motoring, stylish, sexy, great in the summer with the top down! Can be a bit thirsty, but well worth it, turns heads wherever you go! Great little car! Great fun to drive, leather interior, ABS, alloys, superb stereo, 6 x CD stacker, smooth ride, holds the road really well too !

roughtquest, i think you need to go to specsavers. It turns heads coz its awful. "Hold the road well"....are you kiddding me?? Have you ever driven any other car. The KA does NOT hold the road well.

For �7000 you could purchase a much better car...trust me!

yes, i'd prefer the mini too

I'm talking about the roadster StreetKA Spaced you moron. Its very similar to the SMART Roadster....and it does hold the road well you doughnut! Ask TOP GEAR ! I dont need glasses thanks....think you need a brain transplant though.

Hi there i have a luxury streetka and i must admit it is amazing to drive!!
my sister has a citreon c2 sport and its even nippier than that to drive!
i defo agree it holds the road well and ive been driving mine for 3 years now and have drove lots of different cars for example a ford focas,my cousins brand new mini one and my mums new corsa but nothing compares to my streetka...
also if your going to go for one,get a luxury model as you get all the extras like leather interior,heated seats,6 cd changer....it defo turns heads as when i drop the top in the summer i even see guys looking at it lol so its defo a gorgeous looking car !!!
who ever said its ugly they do need their eyes tested...if it was good enough for kylie minogues bum to promote it ( check it out on google ) then its good enough for me lol..
also was quoted by top gear in 2005 to be the BEST LOOKING LADYS CAR ON THE ROAD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GO FOR IT IM IN LOVE WITH MY BABY XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
