The FORD KA (1996-09) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.3 70 DESIGN II is a small, three-door city car, made for easy trips around town and parking. In the UK used-car market, it sits among affordable, compact hatchbacks rather than family cars, appealing to drivers who want basic, practical transport without a large footprint. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 187 checks across 154 different VINs, a sample of cars shoppers have researched. Its data shows an average private-sale valuation of £500 and average recorded mileage of 72,000 miles; typical annual mileage is about 5,000. Vehicles checked had an average of three to four previous keepers, so condition and history deserve close attention. This Design II version pairs the Ka’s distinctive, friendly styling with a simple, compact layout and a 1.3-litre petrol engine. It suits first-time drivers, solo commuters and couples best, offering an approachable alternative to rivals such as the Vauxhall Corsa and Fiat Punto.
