Ford Ka is one of the most fun cars to drive ever !!!!

I had a 225bhp Audi TT, and for fun the GF's 1.3 Ford Ka would run rings around it !!!!

I got so annoyed about this I sold the TT and bought a Lotus Elise !!!

Haha - this I totally agree with, my middle daughter has a Ka3 and she's a crap as her mum when it comes to driving.

My ex had a Micra, a P reg one, though I'm going back a good few years now. I borrowed it for a couple of week whilst I came off a staff rental scheme to buying my own car, and was impressed with how much poke the 1.0 was, and how nicely it handled compared to my pre-determined prejudices.

My ex however, despite being a nice lass, was completely oblivious to what was going on around her once she got into the car to drive anywhere...

Just cause its a micra doesnt mean it cant have an MOT...

Although it would be one way of getting them off the road...

OK then....if you can find someone who has owned a Micra for more than a year, and it is over 10 years old with a current MOT...I'll stop taking the pi55. (out of you at least)

Seriously, Jap cars tend to go for ever.

Micras are a good sized first car so the chances are that someone will keep it for a year so they gain a years NCB.
10 years isnt really a long time when it comes to vehicles (look how many 1999 bikes are on here).
My freelander has just passed 80k on a 99 plate and Ive had it over a year and its got an MOT.

I nominate my mate Rusty, who bought my Micra off me over a year ago.
