2003 Nissan Micra XS review from UK and Ireland
"Nice, but constantly breaking"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Leaks in car x2 on separate occasions costing around 1k.
Paying loads to fix the key when the battery can just be changed.
Catalytic converter had to be replaced at 35k.
Still undiagnosed noise from the front right tyre.
Boot lock is dodgy.
Internal plastic bits all fall off.
Light burns itself out.
Lights become scratched, from presumably salt off the road.
Bearings needed to be changed at 40k.
General comments?
Very roomy, nice handling, quick acceleration for a small car.
