I finally settled on a FORD Ka. Long MOT. 58000 on the clock and only done 3000 in last three years. 2 previous owners. 2006 plate.
Very basic but excellent runner. Only snag, no central locking.
One or two little bits to be done. Was £995 got it for £800.
Was very nervous at the thought of driving 20+ miles home alone but I was ok it was a super drive.
It's a 3 door and drivers seat will not move forward.
Bit of rust round filler cap and small bit in the boot.
We have a super mechanic locally so going to see him on Monday. But overall I am pleased with the car.
