Nissan Micra 1.0 LX 3d (1995/N) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
I only paid £4.5k for it over 4 years ago and think it was good value for what I paid.
Costs
Cheap! On fuel and insurance.
-
On the road
Driving
Far from the best really, but adequate for my needs. Harsh ride and mine is a bit noisy, but still smooth under hard acceleration.
Performance
For a 1-litre engine, very good. Will comfortably hold 75-80mph when needed on the motorway.

Living with it
Reliability
Excellent. Has never let me down, despite now having 90,000+ miles on the clock. Only work has been to replace wear and tear things like the clutch.
Image
A bit fuddy-duddy really and is really now a senior citizen's car. The new Metro in fact!
Comfort
Comfortable seats and plenty of room, but an appalling stiff ride. You feel everything but small bumps.
-
Security and Service
Security
Non-existent until I had an alarm fitted. Not much of a target though, I'd have thought.
Service
I have it serviced privately, but when I have had to contact the dealer for advice or parts I found them to be friendly and efficient.
