1986 Nissan Micra review from UK and Ireland
"Great first car; small, reliable, and cheap to run"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At about 80000 miles changed air flow meter, around 100€.
At around 87000 miles, clutch brake.
General comments?
This was my first car and I loved it.
Was OK on petrol; about 7-8 in the city, and 5-6 on the motorway.
Good handling, good observation, great for a learner.
Not very powerful, but can be squeezed a bit if no passengers are carried.
This car is best for city and short trips, I find it uncomfortable for long drives, the seats have very little adjustment, and the shape of them is odd for my taste.
