Not that handling has got anything to do with lap times.....

Ford Ka

not the most powerful thing on 4 wheels but handles superbly

and the laughingly titled 'SportKa' is supposed to be even better

Got to agree with Fastka!

The ford Ka is a hoot to drive.... round town and on the twisties!
The sportka will be even more laughs!

Try one.... you'll love it!

Plums.

Disagree with DavidChief about the 205. New cars make you feel like you are sat in the middle of a big bubble. Older cars like the 205 still make you feel like that car is a part of your body.

The 205 doesnt feel as safe as newer cars, but for driving pleaseure they cant be beaten.

Only IMHO though
