An excellent Review Sir, a much improved car over the K13 which i found to very disappinting as someone who has owned 2 K11's and K12 micra. My dad owned a K13 and i never really geled with it.

Oh gosh, I have heard that those K13s are really bad! I actually steered a client away from getting one of those recently, as they are not the best...

Another excellent video sir. I think the K14 is a huge improvement over the K13. Happy new year to you and wishing you and the channel all the best for 2024.

Sir, I think you are certainly right about that! They had quite different philosophies, and the K14 is a bit closer to what someone would have been expecting from a supermini when they were launched in 2017.

I really like these , great looking cars

Very nice to drive in terms of the gearbox, steering, driving position, etc, but goodness me it was slow!

A very underrated car in my opinion! Although the fact I bought a year old 0.9 turbo N-Connecta in 2018 for under £10k just shows how prices have shot up in the meantime. Pleasant to drive, never felt out of its depth on the motorway, it was a perfect commuter car and after a year I sold it for not much less than I paid. It didn't have any parking aids and completely agree the rearward visibility isn't the best, but otherwise it fulfilled its role very well. A shame it has been another casualty of the supermini cull.

The 900cc Turbo would be a far better bet than this non-turbo 1.0, I can assure you. The prices of small petrol cars have risen massively in the last couple of years, which is almost the only market segment where prices are increasing at the moment. Very nice to drive if it had a bit more power. Thank you very much indeed for watching and commenting!

You just don't see that many Micra's about anymore , the styling of the clio it much better to me . What country are they made in now ?

They were made in France, but sadly they are out of production now.

Agree, it is a shame that Nissan no longer sells this model. Perhaps it was a slow seller when compared to the Renault Clio.

I have just checked, and the Micra is definitely no longer on sale new. Rather like Ford with the Fiesta and Puma, you can still buy a Nissan on this platform, but it is the Juke that starts at around £21,000.

Glad enjoyed this video, sir.

I feel a having a soft touch dash, but a plastic steering wheel is rather the wrong way around. I'm sure either a higher trim level or later car would resolve this with a nicer steering wheel, though.

I would gladly trade the soft touch dashboard for a more powerful engine, to be honest...

Interesting the engine is just a 3 cylinder nowadays. Seems to be a trend with smaller cars. What was the last 4 cylinder?

Plenty of small cars do actually still use four cylinder engines, but the fashion these days does tend to be for the three cylinder units on the whole.

It absolutely is! This K14 model is actually really good, although I wouldn't recommend the non-turbo 1.0....
