"The Nissan Micra isn't particularly exciting or stylish, but it's easy to drive, surprisingly spacious and cheap."
Пікірлер: 197
I dunno what it is with British reviews. There obsessed with Ford Fiestas. They could be reviewing a Scania truck and be like "bUt tHE iNTerIOr iS quITe dIffErEnT To tHE FoRD FiESta!!!"
Ford Fiesta is a good car, but you don't have to mention it in every second sentence of other cars' reviews... ;)
There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG with the Micra, they are excellent unpretentious reliable cars, ideal for shopping or commuting.

Such a biased website to the Ford Fiesta. I drive this exact car and it's amazing. Only issue is it feels like it's going to roll over during tight corners. Other than that it's a great car :)

Just done over 100k miles and never had an engine fault , only 1 lot of brake pads changed! Solid bodywork, involved in a major accident with no hope of car being repaired, was wrong(4/5 layers of panels on the body chassis)! Expect around 20 years plus to last with regular servicing! Good acceleration in 3rd gear - 55 mpg and low insurance!

@@deansinger299are you talking about the Micra ?
does the previous 2013 model have a cruise control (before lifting)?
In Mexico, for some absurd and concealed reason, we don't get most models with the same security levels. The Micra here has 6 airbags, while we get it with only 2 (it's called "March" here). I wish I knew why, at least, but it bugs me

GOOD REVIEW & GREAT CAR.
Why is she testing in the Whatcar test track? Are Carbuyer and Whatcar the one company?
I love their reviews, but I think they could take a cue from Cooley over on Car Tech and spend a touch more time on the technology inside the care. I'd like to know their feelings on the usability and features of the sat nav, not just if it has it. Cooley does a great job highlighting the pros and cons of car technology. They don't need to completely rip him off, but maybe a little?
Do they day time running lights
The headlamps remind me of the ones on the toyota aygo
Her voice sounds like a younger version of Sarah Beeny who does the home improvement programmes on Channel 4 in the UK.
I have owned my 2014 Micra over 3 years it was a pre-reg with 7 miles on the clock it now has 14300 miles on the clock it developed a fault after two new tyres were fitted at a tyre centre nissan dealers charge to much the nissan dealer retracked the front wheels and informed me I now need a new rear beam axle , I contacted Nissan UK after two weeks they decided it could not be proved whether the fault was caused by potholes or speed humps I am now facing a repair bill for a new rear beam axle £1000+ nissan dont care about their customers so beware when you buy from nissan you do so at your own risk my car now suffers bad vibration throughout the car is therefore non-drivable until I acquire the funds to pay for repairs.
It' s the cheapest car sold in Canada . The micra is dull and very basic but for those who just expect a cheap and decent vehicle to go from point A to point B it' s perhaps a good choice .
i like how they still must point out that it comes with ABS
Not a bad car, one correction is that only the base model has a one piece rear seat (there are 4 regular trim levels, Visia, Acenta, n-tec and Tekna), all other trim level get a 60/40 split seat (interestingly this is a one up from baee Accenta with the optional Nissanconnect 2). personally I wouldn't touch the base model and it looks and feels cheaper inside (less chrome in and out, black plastic mirrors and door handles, no fabric panels on the front doors), has no air-conditioning, front fog lights or cruise control, only the bottom glove box and only has the smaller 14" steel rims (all others get 15" alloys).
It seems to be a great city car! I like it. P.S. Some shots are too fast!
Reminds me about the old sunny: A very reasonable car, just like it is reasonable to give your mother-in-law a lift to the shop. Just not sth you get all exited about to do so....
It's a good car for grandparents
roll down windows? what are we in? the 90s?
i wouldnt mind one for a daily car... it would go nice wit the gtir :)
It looks tall with a high centre of gravity so you should be able to roll it easily!
If I didn't give a damn about features, size or fun and lived in town etc then this car would be ok. I don't think I could ever go back to a smaller car after buying my Mondeo TDCI hatch.
Getting it in may of june might see it its blue
Not a bad little car, much better than Citroren's, Peugeot's, Renault's and Dacia's attempts!!!
Matt gets to test Porsche Panamera, while Rebecca is reviewing Miicra? Not fair ;)

Hahah, you say that yet these past few weeks, Britain has had the highest temperatures throughout the whole of Europe including the Mediterranean. 32 degrees it hit, and this august is supposed to be the hottest in 100 years.
I purchased a pre reg one of these in Black , in August 2014 looks improved getting rid of the ugly silver wheels and swapped them for Black matching wheels but nearly two years old offered peanuts in part exchange at a nissan dealer . I wont ever buy another nissan .
Atleast show the gearbox and transmission..
I think Mat should have gotten the Nissan and you the BMW 4 series convertible.
It is called Nissan March in Brazil.
The best car ever!
It looks to be a cross between the mark two & three in looks.
My mom using this car. But older generation. In Thailand Ford Fiesta is more expensive than Nissan Micra. In Thailand this car is called Nissan March. In Thailand Nissan Micra cost about £9100 but Ford Fiesta cost about £12,600. There are only 2 French car brand that available in Thailand that's Peugeot and Cotroën.
Euro Ncap 4 stars in 2014 is... well... how to say... shit maybe? Btw, I never liked Micra and I'll probably never like it :p

Welcome to Europe! Everything is an option. I must say I've never ever had use of rear electric windows so I get where they're coming from. As the driver I never sit in the back, and even if I were it's always cold and raining or snowing outside, so it'd be daft to open a window regardless. Drum brakes are perfectly adequate for a car in this class, and (not surprisingly) you'll find drums on Fords and Kias and Renaults too... However, I'd pick any Ford or any Kia or even any Renault over the complete awfulness that is the Nissan Micra. How can a car go so many generations and never develop even a hint of style, driveability or air of quality around it. And despite being put together by slave labour in India, it's expensive!
@sacleocheaterz

Man, never realised drum brakes were still used that widely. Thanks for letting me know. I guess it depends on how you use your car. I could understand all the cuts on technology and cheaper materials - only if it was backed up by a reasonable price point. They still start at £10,000... a bit too much to ask for such a basic car, especially since pretty much all rivals have a 5-star NCAP rating.

if you need parking aid with such a small car you shouldn't be driving. also the micra seems to have fallen behind a bit too much quality wise. wouldn't buy.

Uhhh...I'll pass.
People always seem to say bad things about micras but funny to see so many of them on the roads loool but yh such an ugly car
Beautifully contoured body lines. An exciting prospect for any young man, who's looking for something sporty, with a touch of class. AS for the car:- Fill it with bananas & big bottles. Not people.
SPOILER ALERT: It's still shit and always will be :P

The Micra has never been a good car. And when are Carbuyer going to stop lying about backseat legroom.
