1989 Nissan Micra LS review from UK and Ireland
"Cheap no frills motoring, but ideally a first car only"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bulbs throughout constantly blew.
Battery kept discharging and needed replacing.
General comments?
Had very good first gear acceleration and good exhaust noise for a 1.0.
The cabin is made very light by the large windows.
The car is easy to drive and park, but the steering can become very heavy in tight turns.
