If size is a factor I suggest ALBRECHT AE-6110 mini (Anytone Smart), Midland M-Mini etc.

Most CB radios are bigger than a Ford Ka
Perhaps add the Magnum 257 to the list and when you have a dozen alternatives, just filter them by size/cost/features etc.

Surely one of the many, many radios you've bought over the years will fit?

Cobra 75
All the controls are on the mic, so you can shove the radio out of the way under the seat.

Re: New CAR .New cb But which???
Congrats on the Ford Ka! It's a great compact choice. When I was outfitting my small car with a CB radio, I opted for something compact and efficient. I went with the Cobra 75 WX ST, which integrates all controls into the handset to save space. It’s a great fit for smaller vehicles and still offers solid performance.
When I was researching how to transport my car safely after purchase, I found this resource incredibly helpful: https://www.a1autotransport.com/how-are-brand-new-cars-transported/. It not only explained the process thoroughly but also provided hints and typical prices, which really helped me understand what to expect.

Can't you just mount it on the side of the gearbox tunnel/centre console
