Ford’s KA was a true ‘car for the people’, providing low-cost and reliable transport for thousands of drivers in the UK. It was a real hit, too, and because of this it’s a common sight on the used market with cars to fit all types of budgets. While the KA may have been discontinued a little while ago, it still remains a great purchase for drivers looking for a very wallet-friendly way of getting around.

Overall rating 4/5If there’s one thing that Ford knows how to do, it’s create a car for the masses and the KA showed the Blue Oval putting this expertise to work. With a zero-frills design and a range of cheap-to-repair components, the KA has been the go-to choice for countless drivers ranging from learners to those who need a reliable, around-town second car.
Though many might opt for the Fiesta, the KA continues to be a great option on the used market, particularly if you’re trying to get on the move for less. We’re focusing on the second-generation car here, too, as it brings more modern touches while still retaining the cost-effective nature of the original.
