    Bad Points: Not the fastest car in the world.

    General comments: Good high Miles per Gallon. Easy to drive. Quick and practical. Reliable. Nissan Micra is an excellent all round car.

    Fuel efficient, nippy, compact, reliable. Generally a highly recommended and reliable car; I rarely hear bad things from owners of Micras.

    I have owned 2 micra's, both 1 litre, first was shape, 2nd was just the L model, both great, have done reasonable heavy towing and they keep up! would still have my first if I hadn ' t unfortunately had a shunt into back of someone - if your going to crash don ' t do it these - they are weaker than tin- I literally got out of car and bent wings, bonnet, rad support, headlight supports back into shape with just my hands!2nd one is having issues with engine which I have not yet found cause, it is ...

    Generally the Nissan Micra is reliable and touch wood no breakdowns so far. Minor issues such as CD player jumping, even with new one (annoying), clunking gears, and strangely, a mirror on sun visa on drivers side but not other side! Passenger side door doesnt always shut properly.

    Overall the Micra is a great car. It has a struggle keeping up with the big boys but, as long as its serviced regularly then it will never let you down. We have had only had 2 times where ours wouldn't start, and I believe it was down to dirty fuel. The Micra is very reliable and is ideal for a first car. The one problem I have is that I'm 5ft 11 and my seat won't go back far enough for me to be completely comfortable, so long journeys can be a bit of a discomfort. But hey I love my Micra.

    The Micra or March K11 series year 2000 is a very good and dependable family car. This car is technically sound and very reliable. It's also quite economical.

    I have owned my 1998 1.3GX Micra for three years. Its probably the meanest looking factory built model, with black paint, tinted glass, sun roof, sports alloys and fat (stuck on a standard exhaust) exhaust finisher. I find the 1.3 engine punchy and responsive in the city, and surprisingly powerful and long legged on the motorway. I think Nissan got the design perfect with this model. It just looks right, with its tough compact body and clean simple lines. The all round visibility is the best of ...

    I had to buy a car that would suit the wife and our new-born baby. Budget was not an isssue in this purchase. We were simply looking for a vehicle that would suit them for pottering about and doing their bits and bobs. We looked at several cars including the Nissan Micra, Ford Ka, Vauxhall Corsa and Peugeot 107. After test driving them all, we agreed the Nissan Micra suited us and contentrated our search upon this vehicle. At this time we knew exactly what we were after and started to l ...

    Does anyone know if the 1.4 16v engine out of the Almera fits the Micra? I'm after upgrading the engine. I got a quote for a turbo conversion and it'll cost aprox 3k to get 165 bhp from the 1.0 16v.

    I had a K10 (square micra) for 3 years which was really reliable. Then I got a fiesta, which was not. Now I have a '98 version (revised headlights) Nissan Micra K11 1.0l GX spec. I do a lot of driving for work in town and in the country. I find that, despite being sub 1litre, the little micra has enough poke to keep up with the traffic and really does not mind being revved. It has only not started twice (dodgy battery terminal) in 12 months. The car is easy to park but the boot does not seem as ...

    My Nissan Micra K11 "Wave" Limited edition (just as well with a silly name like that) is probably the most reliable car I've ever owned. I won it in a Supermarket promotion in 1994 and it has covered 85,000 trouble free miles since then. I have just fitted new alloy wheels with wider tyres and the handling is even better!

    The Nissan Micra K11 1.0l city car performs well whether in town where it is nippy, responsive, and lively, or on the motorway where it is steady and has a good cruising speed. I have both an automatic 1995 Micra and a geared 1997 Micra. The auto is a little bit slow on the accelerator, both in response time (about 1 second delay) and acceleration. The manual is faster and far more fun to drive!! The brakes on the manual are responsive and quite powerful, so that is definetly a plus. ...

    My Nissan Micra K11 1.0l City Car just keeps on going and going! Never fails to start first time and takes me anywhere regardless of weather conditions. I have driven mine through treacherous snow conditions in Germany, and never had any problems (only have normal standard tyres fitted) The only problems I have ever had were: I replaced the front brakes at 109,000Km I had a high speed steering wobble, which dissapeared after getting the wheels balanced, and now the washer system on the front ...

    I've had one of the earliest UK-built Micras since new (1993/L). The Nissan Micra K11 1.0l is very comfortable, even on a 6-hour non-stop journey. Drivers seat still not sagging after 66,000 miles & 11 years with a 13-stone driver. Never uses or leaks oil. Only trouble has been faulty Blaupunkt stereo replaced under warranty, dim-dip lights played up a couple of times, crossmember rusted after 9-years, tyre shred tread after 53,000 miles! 998cc engine really is capable, because it's twin-cam ...
