Nissan Micra Hatchback (2010 - 2017) 1.2 Acenta 5d Owner Review

1.2 Acenta 5d
Nissan Micra 2010

Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

Servicing by a nissan dealer is expensive , town driving ok , but longer trips, no Road tax is £30 pa so acceptable ,but then it is only a hatchback insurance cost could be better. the silver wheels that are standard on the Acenta are ugly if the exterior paint is black I added Nissan black wheels which make it look better . in hindsight I should have put this money in a savings account and then I might have accumulated the repair bill cost I now face the car at present is undriveable vibration throughout the cabin make it unsafe to drive .

How reliable do you find the car?

At 14171 miles the car has been diagnosed with a faulty rear beam axle and this requires replacement , Nissan and the dealership are making excuses that this fault could have been caused by potholes and ,or speed humps and so I face a repair bill of £1000+

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

Boot is too small , and the fact that the car has a full service history carried out at a nissan dealer and that even its first MOT did not find the axle fault , strange !
