**Ford Street Ka**

[alex_gt]

Check this out a Convertible :ford: Ka.. spotted in the filming of Kylie's new film....:teleport:

What's everyone think, seen it before?

 

[MistaX]

Is it me or is that a Audi TT with a Ford badge on it?

 

[Race Idiot]

No its a Squashed Audi TT with a ford badge

What are the specs?

 

[sn00pie]

That's one helluva TT rip off!

 

[GilesGuthrie]

Hairdresser's car!

Mmm. Kylie!

I like it - a really great city car, meant for Europe, and only for Europe.

TT ripoff? Are you kidding? The TT hardly looks a thing like that!

You're joking aren't you? Look again at the zero overhangs, at the rounded rump, the stainless roll hoops and the exaggerated curve of the windscreen. Also, look at the wheel design and honestly tell me they weren't chosen because they look like TT wheels!

Its a wannabe TT..

The TT has a much longer back than the StreetKa, it's also longer. The StreetKa looks cheaper, too, and the front looks nothing like the TT's.

The SC430 looks like the TT.

Ford admitted last year that the StreetKa was "inspired" by the TT. To say that this conversion doesn't resemble a certain Audi is to ignore...well, the entire car.

As for the SC430's resemblance: That would be stretching it. Rounded front and rear, yes; hard to tell front from back, yes; but it's a highly stylized interpretation. It's enough for me to say the famous oxymoron "original Japanese car".

If they release hopefully they'll finally drop that bloody Kent engine and put a nice twin cam in it. That motor really belongs at the end of a long chain at the bottom of the sea.

looks nice, it would be even nicer if they put a turbo in it
wooooo!

 

[skynyrd]

It's a Street Ka named Desire.



Sorry, just had to type that.

It's...........................................interesting. Not something I'd ever drive, but interesting.

They say the pun is the loneliest form of humour.

I agree - it clearly resembles the A8 W12.

I think from some angles from faraway the SC430 could plainly be mistaken for a TT. I don't think there's anything too original about it, either, be it styling, mechanics, or 'other' features.

Ah - it's an attractive cheap little convertible. The base Ka isn't a bad drive, although powerwise it couldn't drag a cat across a polished marble floor. If they can keep the base chassis competency it'll be okay.
