1993 Nissan Micra LX from UK and Ireland - Comments

The clutch finally wore out at about 50-55,000 miles.

I replaced the battery and brake pads before they really needed it.

The car has developed a slight leak from the base of the windscreen on the passenger side - nothing a bit of sealant won't fix.

I've had this car since I was eighteen. It saw me through university. It's had numerous thrashings over the Pennines. And it still keeps going.

I learned to drive in the thing which is probably why I've had to replace the clutch. It's a great little car which should keep going for years.

I've marked it down on comfort, simply because 1- it's a bit small, and 2- when I'm driving it my knee rests against the window winder which makes it a bit uncomfy.

I've marked it down on performance because it can't really compete with a lot of the other cars out there, but for a 1-litre car it goes really well.

I'm now thinking about replacing the car, but only because I want something a bit more powerful - and I've owned it for 5 years anyway.

Reply to this if you can... I am 17 and looking for a first car; how did your insurance quotes on the micra compare with other cars? Thanks ;)

To the 17 year old looking for insurance on a Nissan Micra, I'm 24 and also in a high insurance bracket. Ring Quoteline or look for it on the internet, they seem to be the best fully comp quote I've had so far, good luck!
