Nissan Micra C+C (05-09) - Review

Review by Ben Wall on
Last Updated: 01 May 2009
There's no shortage of small convertibles on the market, but while the Micra C+C may not be the sportiest choice, it still has a lot going for it. Well built, comfortable and affordable to run, it's a drop top that appeals to the head as well as the heart. It does lose some of the cuteness of the standard Micra hatchback, but it's as easy to drive and features the same neatly laid out interior. Although it has four-seats, the rear two are only useful as extra luggage space, but the boot is surprisingly large. The electrically-folding roof is all glass - giving the interior an airy feel - and takes around 20 seconds to retract. There are just two engine choices though and no diesel is available.

There were originally three models - Urbis, Sport and Essenza. The base model Urbis is only offered with the 1.4-litre engine, but still has the full glass roof with electric operation, central locking, electric heated door mirrors, CD stereo, steering wheel-mounted stereo controls, electric windows, 15-inch alloy wheels and height adjustable seat. The Sport has the 1.6-litre engine and gets air-conditioning and 16-inch alloys, while the Essenza adds the Intelligent key system, a CD autochanger, heated seats, automatic air-conditioning, ESP and leather trim. Later this was changed to Visia and Acenta. In October 2008 this was changed to Visia, Acenta, Tekna and Sport Luxury.
