    Hello :) New car owner, and to this forum

    I have been waiting for so long to buy a new car and my wife bought me my new Nissan Micra I was elated to see it sitting in my drive way when I got home.

    but one thing i am wondering is should I rust proof it or not?

    and if so what company should I use?

    Wouldn't bother, just have her get you another when this one rusts out, or needs tires...or gets dirty. I mean, Brad gets a new helicopter from Angie and you get is a crappy Micra? pffft, sheesh man.

    Sorry, couldn't resist

    Congrats on the new Micra! I'd say if you plan on keeping it for a long time (10+ years), I'd definitely look at having rust treatment done.
