Let me be the first to say TD Nova.

Someone had to say it, even though its not a wise choice.

Looks like an uglier version of the Corsa D, and they are ugly.

The new fiestas are nice to drive, better looking than the ka and use the same engine as the ka. Would that not be an option for you?

well possibly but when i get rid it will have about 200k on the clock so worth feck all so initial outlay being lower on the ka is swaying me that way
