    Seems like Grey, Silver & Blue are the colors that are more common than the rest. There is a SV the same color as mine but I haven't seen it around lately.

    ^ Yeah - I'm self conscious when snapping pics of other people's cars too!

    It will for me too if I don't drop the file on the right form element in the upload window. For me (Win 10), I have to drop it on the text "no file selected" beside the browse button.

    PS: I'm starting to see more Micras in my little city.

    I saw a "SOLD" sign in a Micra out in front of the local dealer last week. But they still don't seem to stock them (more than 1 at a time, rarely 2).

    Kingston

    Did a round trip to Kingston yesterday...

    Saw FIVE Micras on the road. That's a record for me in one day.

    While on vacation in Mexico recently I saw my first March & they were everywhere.
    I noticed they all had the rear "wing".
    I like the alloy wheels & chrome door handles.

    Nice!

    Some relatives of mine did a trip to Ireland and they were just showing us their photos. They took some video of driving on some of the insanely narrow (1.25 width of our normal lane!), winding, 80 km/h rural roads. Hedges on one side, stone walls on the other!

    AND HERE COMES ANOTHER CAR RIGHT AT YOU!

    Fun. I laughed because the first car they faced was a Micra (K11, I do believe).

    The roads are crazy in that way. The rental I had in the UK in the fall was an Insignia (Buick Regal) which was big for the country roads in Devon!

    I just realized I should have tried to buy the "March" style rear headrests while in Mexico.
    After checking Google maps I see there was a Nissan Dealer within walking distance of my Hotel.
    You can sort of see them in the raised position in the 1st of the 2 pictures I posted above.
    The existing ones we have are sort of like Mickey Mouse ears.

    Yes, that's a big car vs. the ones I saw in their pics.
