Driving it

Nippy around town, but if you lugging more than one of your mates around don't count on getting out of third gear. A bit of body roll, but for the car of its year the ride is pretty smooth, avoid big potholes tho!

Unbelievable, small B pillars mean high level of visibility and Its a micra!?

Never had any problems, and being my first car it got quiet the thrashing.

Air con, and electric windows, considering all of my friends in there 2002 Corsas and fiestas with their winedy windows and no air con, I was pretty chuffed :).
