It's a sweet ride! No supercar maybe, but you can't get more fun that this with so few bucks! Definitely a hit and I never read or saw a negative review! BTW, Very nice in black!

Ive no clue how many horsepower the car has...but supposing that it has 90 bhp....it must have at least 90 bhp ...the car must be a very fun to drive in every twisty roads due to its low weight and the short wheelbase also.....for instance a friend of mine has a 90 bhp citroen saxo...and actually the car is very fun to drive...the Ka...is one of the best looking ka that ive seen also....hope you enjoyed with the driving

it has 95hp and i have a saxo VTR with 90hp.they are both awesome fun to drive,but his KA just holds the road amazingly.a bit more stable than mine.for a KA its an ok looker,much nicer than the regular ford KA,the interior is pretty good heres a pic....

there's the one where it decapitates the cat, another one where it swats a pigeon out of the air with its hood and i have heard there is a third where it eats someone but i can't find it.

(both the cat and pigeon are somewhere on JW)

>edit< to make it easier, i found both the cat and pigeon here:

Nice pics danny, u still dick on it now its run in? I think its the same engine as is in my bro's focus. Quite a smooth engine, but just no good in a car as heavy as the focus. I spect that KA moves pretty well. Theyve always been good handlers but i recon they have less room inside than the saxo.
The shitty 1.1 i drove was well pointy! And the clutch was sooooo soft that when i got back into my car (after service) i thought they'd broken my clutch!! lol

LOL thanks coombsie,isnt the engine in your bro's focus a 16v? the sport KA is an 8v.ive yet to have a little mess around with him in my car,i was in his yesterdaya nd today he is out with a mate.maybe 2morrow.but in a straight line........i dont think its as fast as the saxo.....handling wise....if he learns to drive it properly,im sure he could pull away on corners,i know it handles awesome now,so when he learns the clutch and gears more who knows........but man its got one hell of a short changing distance,not the ratio but the distance of the stick from one gear to another,i got in it after not bein in it for like 5 months,i went into 1st and thoguht i had broken it or sumthin had broke as it hardly moved,lol i would love that box in my car,lol

dani - yes mate its a 1600cc,never heard of one names kaka,lol theres the 1.3 ka then the 1.3 ka2 and then this one my cousin has the 1.6 sport KA
