Nissan Micra C+C (2005 - 2009) 1.6 Tekna 2d (2008/08) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

My wife thinks its sassy - 5 years ownership speaks for itself.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Well they are still speaking to us.

Would you buy this car again and why?

A very big YES - just a shame Nissan hasnt done it with the latest Micra.

What are you likely to buy next?

Probably a 207cc as Nissan arent doing the new Micra in a CC.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchised

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£8,000

When did you buy the car?

March 2009

Did you get a good deal and why?

YES - ex demonstrator with only 3000 miles.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

My wifes car, wanted to replace less practical Escort Cabriolet.

What was the dealer like?

Couldnt have been better - West Way of Southampton.

What's it like to drive?

Pocket rocket with the 1.6 cc engine yet we see averaging 48 to gallon.

What's it like to park?

Never had any problems - as slimmer than say the Peugeot 207cc.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Its been absolutely superb my wife has owned it for 5 years - that says it all and \i will need a tyre leave to prise it away from her. She likes it that much. We have owned since 3000 miles and now owned for 5 years and its at 26000 miles.

What's most practical about your car?

Metal and glass folding roof rather than Cloth. Massive boot when roof up - and I mean massive - as big as a Mondeos. Its got a 6 stack CD player and my wife loves music when she drives. Its the 1600 cc a very nippy yet economical.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

So much to choose from as its top of the range, well rear sensors / heated seats ( leather) and suede / 6 stack CD - and not ovelooking that folding roof.
