I scrapped the Ka after it sat for a year. Got £130 scrap when it only cost me £100 so that wasn't too bad.
Got a 56 reg 1600 Focus just now but it's staying mostly standard and an 05 reg Fiesta I'll be turning into a street legal track car as and when I can afford it - 2.1 or 2.2 N/A Zetec, possibly rwd
