Nissan Micra 1.4 16v

...have issued is not a Nissan Micra. It’s an anniversary probably no one knew much about, 25 years is a long time & a milestone worth celebrating. However, this anniversary in the middle of a recession was only probably celebrated by a handful of marketing people & the odd factory worker. What am I on about? Well the 25th anniversary of the humble Nissan Micra recently happened; did it have much effect on you? No I thought not, much the same with ...
...to run & reliable. NISSAN MICRA If there is one single thing that may put you off buying the new Micra it will probably be its looks. Although a subjective matter looks are important & the new Micra is certainly different against normal small cars. It’s the ‘bug eyed’ headlamps that do it for most, those lamps are not fitted like most cars at the very front of the car but they are placed back into the bonnet line close to the windscreen. It does ...

Review of Nissan Micra 1.4 16v

...range Mercedes C-Class into a Nissan Micra, I thought this would be a bit of a basic car. I was wrong. This car had climate control, automatic headlights, automatic windsreen wipers. It is quite a well spec'd car to be honest. The driving was easy. The clutch was a doddle, the gearbox smooth as silk. No crunching gears from me. And I hadn't driven anything other than an automatic for about 3 years. No wonder learners often are seen in these. ...
...figures suggest this is a bit slow, around town it is really a good car. The petrol gauge didn't seem to move. This made me happy. Very economical. I never really liked the look of this car, but I knew it should be reliable. Now I have driven one, I can see the appeal a bit more. One critism though, I never did find a comfortable driving position. The seat made my back ache. I never really worked out if the steering wheel moved, but if you want ...

Review of Nissan Micra 1.4 16v

This car is elegant and reliable. My one personally cost around £30 to fill petrol wise. It was very nippy in gears 1-3, but can be rather sluggish in the higer gears unless timed well. But also their is the automatic gear change function that can solve that problem. The insurance on this car is very low, and nissans are known to be very safe cars. Very handy in and around town, and due to their size, they are easy to park. The handling is exeptional, ...
...modern, and im sure you can select what type of interior you can have, or just add on seat covers like I did. In conclusion, id reccomend this car to someone who is looking for a reliable car, that saves on petrol and on insurance costs (at all ages). My 17 year old son now drives it as his first car, and pays a little over £1000. ...

Review of Nissan Micra 1.4 16v

...that I spoke to recommended Nissan as they are very reliable. I LOVED this car, and kept it for 3.5 years all together. The 1.4 engine was extremley nippy and could beat quite a few bigger cars off the line (believe me). The turning circle in it is the smallest of it's class, and this makes driving much more comfortable and fin, as with the power steering being so light making parking a breeze. The only thing I'd say to watch out for is if you ...
...an eye on the front seats that should tip forward for entry into the back seats. The driver and passenger seat both broke whilst I had the car and had to be replaced under warranty. If your car is out of the 3 year warranty I think that they charge £40+ to fix this. Also another minor fault I picked out with the car was that when driving around on wet raods, there was a lot of 'spray' noise generated in the cabin (that come from the back of the car). ...

Review of Nissan Micra 1.4 16v

I've had my car for three years now and in that time, it hasn't caused me any major problems. I've had only two punctures in this time, both of which were due to major roadworks and not the quality of the tyres (however, my standard of driving could be at fault). The fact that my car is gold, means that even when it gets quite dirty, the dirt does not show up as much as it might on other colours or cars. In regards to this, i find washing my car ...
...to wash other cars. This may be because it is low, which means that i can thoroughly wash my entire car, including the top. One of the things i felt were important when puchasing my car was the sound system. I have AM, FM radio and a CD player which plays a a variety of cd formats. Those compiled by individuals on the computer also play very well i found. The Micra is my first car after passing my driving test, and i found it to be excellent in ...
