The FORD KA (2008-16) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.2 SS 69 EU5 METAL is a small, three-door city car, designed for easy parking and everyday trips. It sits among Britain’s affordable used hatchbacks, offering a simpler, compact alternative to larger family cars and roomier superminis. Mycarcheck.com records show 878 look-ups covering 430 different VINs, a sizeable sample for this version. Across those checks, average private-sale valuation was £2,800; average recorded mileage was 62,000, with annual mileage around 5,000. Cars had nearly three previous keepers on average, useful context when comparing individual examples. Best suited to first-time drivers, commuters and couples, the Ka’s straightforward character makes local journeys easy. Its 1.2-litre petrol engine is economical for everyday use, while Metal trim adds distinctive styling. Compared with a Fiat Panda or Toyota Aygo, it feels like a mini hatchback, but its three doors limit rear-seat access. Check service history, condition and mileage before buying.
