I had a drive of a KA and thought it was good fun. Quite nippy really, quite enjoyed it.

My mum used to have a 51 plate one, was surprisingly nippy around town, very good on fuel and a laugh on country lanes.

In the 6 years she had it the only thing to fail was a rear spring, however by the time it was sold it was suffering from the rust already mentioned; fuel filler area, sills & even floor pans starting to go.
