The Ka seems to use a lot of Mk3 Suspension parts, given that and the
long overlap on the Mk3 and Mk4 changeover i think Ford must have been
rather overstocked on Mk3 Fiesta parts.
There's actually very little common between the Mk3 and Mk4 Fiesta
despite there similar shape and size.
I've not worked on a Puma but i think thats more Mk4 Fiesta based.

I was always under the impression that the Ka and Puma were just a Mk3
Fiesta in a new frock, therefore suspension parts would be easy to get hold
of.

Hi Ed,
I would like to also wish you all the best with the new venture and
look forward to seeing the new models however (and I apologise if this
is taken the wrong way)...
with SVA the way it is would the newer mark fiesta's, or even a Puma,
not be better for the future? With the KA only having a 1.3 as
standard won't single donor status be tricky unless the original
engine is used, and the rest of the components are a little suspect
too (brakes, suspension etc) in comparison to the readily available
Fiesta or Puma donors?
I for one would especially welcome a move towards a jap based Quantum
based on the Almera, or maybe a rwd mx5? Just thoughts, probably on my
own with the jap route and may be too much work to achieve!
I'd especially love to see a new saloon/coupe, minus sunroof and pop
up lights!
