This car is brilliant. I read many reviews about this car before deciding on it. There was a mixture of reviews and i began to feel nervous about my decision. However, a family member has the older shaped Micra and has always said how much she loved it. Micra's do have a reputation for reliability and so i decided to go for it. I am so glad i did. I got a fantastic deal. £4,295 for a Micra 06 Urbis 5dr 22,000 miles. The Urbis comes with aircon and parking sensors which are a great added extra. Inside the car, i have found it to be very spacious. I have made my boyfriend (around 5 foot 10) to sit in both the front and back of the car to check height room and he said it was great. I have actually had a full car of men this size and there was never an issue of room. There are a lot of little cubby holes throughout the car. For example, above the CD player, there is a drawer for your CD's, there is a takeaway hook by the passenger foot-well, there is a coin drawer and 4 cup holders (the 2 cup holders for the front seats also has a sunglasses tray!) There are switches by the drivers legs to open the boot and petrol cap which i have found to be great as you are not fumbling around with keys in the rain. In terms of boot size, i dont think it is particularly small although if this were the main family car and you had small children, it think it could be a bit of an issue. I would think you could get your buggy in their and a few bags, but i dont think it would be any good if you will need to be taking a lot of luggage with you (on holiday or something). However, i do think it would be a brilliant second family car. The car itself has a very sturdy feel and i feel very safe in her. I have driven around all week and havent even spent £10 in terms of fuel yet. This is incredible because in my previous car, i would have spent at lest double this. I have been in her none stop! If you are looking for something cheap to run, i would definitely consider this particular car. Car tax is about £125 per year, and i think i paid about £400 for fully comprehensive car insurance (i am 23 so my insurance is a little higher than if you are older than 25. However, this is with 6years no claims bonus). So all in all, i would say this car is a bargain. There seems to be some really good deals about in terms of simply buying the car and i believe the upkeep costs (tax, insurance, petrol etc) is relatively cheap too. I think if you were to test drive one, you will get a very good feeling from the car. The second i test drove the car i ended up buying, i felt very confident in my decision. She is everything i always wanted and am very very pleased i listed to the good rather than the bad online reviews!

The Nissan Micra 1.2 S has good fuel consumption and is a good drive, comfortable, with plenty of room.
