Well that is with almost every Peugeot :) Yes, it's grinning!

Currently I drive a 2011 Ford Ka Edge (not my own) since passing my test:

It is a 1.2 68HP so has nothing on hills whatsoever, positives are great gearbox, smooth pedals, negatives are the power, headlight range, the power, the engine is loud, and the power. However the three cylinder is a unique sounding engine.

And yes, the electric window switches are the ones next to the gear knob.

Neither do I, can't afford one due to British young insurance being amongst the highest in the world.

Seems like a decent car, when you have just passed it's a fine car for taking you from A to B :)

My only experience with Ford is a rental 2014 Fiesta in Italy. It was a brand new car (156 km driven) and already full of scratches. Italians...

It was light grey, and it had fine working air conditioning so I guess it's fine for Italy. Luxurious is not the right word for basic Fords but these days they're pretty well equipped.

Take nothing away from Ford, in my opinion one of the most reliable manufacturers. My driving instructor's car was a Fiesta Zetec and despite being seven years old it is far more equipped than the Ka. Only problem with the Ka is I live in an area where, if you want to have a day out say more than 20 miles (35km) you have to cover a lot of hills, and it just isn't the right car for that.

That's what I am saying, you won't beat BMW or Merc in equipment, but for what you pay for it, they are great cars. I know somebody who works for Ford (Global Design Director Interior, leader of Project New GT) who gave his wife in Holland a Ford Mondeo, and that is a really good car.
