"A great bargain for around town use"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The head gasket failed at 120000 km.

The power transistor failed at 100000 km.

The ignition has an intermittent "no spark" problem I am trying to fix. It is not the power transistor or coil assembly.

General comments?

This has been a great little car.

I hope to fix this problem using used parts.

New part prices are outrageous.

The power transistor costs $175 CAD.

The car was rust proofed and now shows very little rust.

Nissan Micra has been in CANADA since the early eighties, but we only got the K10 model.

I am in Canada and recently bought a 1989 Nissan Micra for the low kilometers on it as well as the awesome shape it was in. Apparently owned by a driving school previously, this sweet little car is a must for any one looking for fuel efficiency and a no nonsense car. The cost of insurance, and gas has definitely had a positive impact on my wallet. I have been offered double for what I paid for it, even before I added a stereo and new tires! If you have one, keep it!!! I love my new little car!
