For an 11 yr old car they are actually in good condition. Recon it must have been garaged for most of its earlier life. I was going to give them a spray with Scottoiler FS 365 because I have a bottle in the garage, unless there is something better?
The insurance came in at £810 with Elephant and goes up to £1400 when she passes her test, not bad because Ka's aren't boy racer cars.
Gave her a service last week. Halfords wanted £24 for 5l semi which I thought was a bit much. then saw they had Mobile 1 fully synthetic for £22, interestingly the tappet noise has quietened down with the FS. However, this may be down to the previous owner not servicing it for 17k miles.
