jmurray01 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I was browsing Gumtree tonight as I usually do when I'm bored, and came across this Ford Ka. Looks like a nice wee project eh? Well, until you check the MOT history and find it that it was last tested almost 12 months ago and back then it failed rather severely, shall we say... Hopefully no naive person will buy this without doing a thorough check first! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mileage is irrelevant when it comes to corrosion, however I wouldn't be surprised if the odometer has done a full rotation and it is actually 151,000 miles. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L666JER Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 "One of the cleanest kas" with that much corrosion he must know it's not worth fixing and is just trying to sell it on. What I'm interested in is how it has managed to snow inside :D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmurray01 Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share Posted January 20, 2016 Rust is lighter than carbon fibre :D Hey, you could be onto something there... Would the lack of safety counteract the fuel savings to be made? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmurray01 Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share Posted January 20, 2016 Where about is that car Jamie? It's over 200 miles away, not that I'd be interested if it were one street away!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
