My mates Dad used to work for Ford and we had one of the pre-build models on test . . . yeah they don't handle like you Ka will, but for straight line acceleration I was fairly impressed. Stonked up a slip road on to the A66 and a quick glance at the speedo showed 70mph+ in second, and a quick punt into 3rd saw a ton+ on the speedo, and it felt nice and stable - you'll have fun, just a different kind!
