The Ka is something else - gets death at every opportunity too

Based on a fourtrack chassis with a shogun rear axle and a landcruiser SJ10 front axle (keeps the ratios right) it's good

But the size of the tyres make it pretty useless on long journeys due to the high gearing BUT it does go pretty much anywhere that you think of pointing it
