Good Points

very fast 0-60 17.6 secs, WOW
small for dodging traffic
Very free revving (engine. 1.0 in particular)
No power steering, ac, e/windows e.t.c.; no power lost on such useless features.
VERY reliable
FAST 89mph (downhill) bout 45bhp


Bad Points

Looks like a grannys car.
Box on wheels.
no rev counter. This also good because you arent distracted, u have to listen. More involving.
If u crash, ur as good as dead. Made of tin-like materials.
Handling


General Comments

This car rulez.4 gears; means less changing involved. Close ratio gbox. cluch very light. engine revs and revs and revs.loud engine, for the full sports car experience. virtually no sound proofing. although the handling is very bad, loads a body roll. the suspension is soggy. you feel all bumps n potholes, you can drive over speed humps very fast and the car takes it.excellent. fun car to razz around if you have no shame...

    I dont think 17 seconds for 0-60 is anything to brag about, but I know what you mean, it is a nippy little car, but I haven't done 89 in mine yet, I daren't incase the engine blows up or anything, after all, it is 14 years old! Is there anyone else out there whose micra is missing a left wing mirror (ie. it was made without one)? Or is that just me?
