Nissan Micra (1983 - 1993) 1.0 GS 3d (1990/G) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Hopefully not much, all I want it for is to get me from A to B, basically do whatever I need it to, without worrying about image.

Family think it's sensible enough, friends like it because it has character.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Certainly, it's reliable, fuel effiecient and does everything I need it for.

What are you likely to buy next?

Whatever I feel like at the time, but I'm not looking for another car in the next few years, but would love a Honda Civic Type R

Type of dealer you bought from?

Didn't buy from a dealer

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£0

When did you buy the car?

March 2006

Did you get a good deal and why?

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

It was free due to the fact that my aunt just couldn't learn to drive, so she gave it to me!

What was the dealer like?

What's it like to drive?

Quite fun actually, driving slow is easy, but I've developed a technique, which is basically to get the car to a certain speed and just don't slow down. If the mood takes you to need to overtake, drop down to third, floor it, wait for the needle to slowly rise, then pass with pride...just make sure that you leave plenty of room!

What's it like to park?

Simple; small, easily manouevrable, great all-round visibility!

Have you had any problems with the car?

Absolutely nothing, superb reliability.

What's most practical about your car?

I've used it to ferry around my mates, it's had 5 people in it and still managed to move! Also I've used it to move building materials, it is also ideal to use as a small van!

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

I've recently fitted an airhorn to it, which continually amuses me!
