1991 Nissan Micra LS review from UK and Ireland
"Japanese muscle for a low cost"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New gear mountings were needed at 58000 miles and at the same time I needed a new rear number plate bulb.
15 inch alloy wheels rubbed on the rear arches. I had to have them rolled.
General comments?
From stand still this car is extremely fast. (0-30)
Once the alloys were fitted there was no problem when going around corners.
I had a new back box fitted to the car 3 months ago and it sounds more throaty than most I have ever heard on other cars!
I love the shade of Grey of the plastic interior.
The car is not very good in higher gears although I did manage to reach 97mph on the motorway.
Excellent range of parts can be found at most scrap yards.
Superb fuel economy.
Once the car is washed and waxed the colour looks like new.
