    Our garden is going crazy productive this year, so I decided to order a chest freezer (5.1 cubic footer). I emailed friends to see who might have a pick-up truck to help me pick it up from the store....

    Okay, feeling foolish, but happy to have the solution. Turns out that putting my seat way back, I sometimes was not 100% depressing the clutch peddle. This causes the car not to turn over-- nice...

    Thanks. It is a standard. I remember I recently put the seat back a little more (amazes me how much leg room one can achieve in this car-- I swear there seems to be more than in my older Subaru...

    Micra S Occasionally Will Not Start

    Hi, Hoping that there might be someone here who has had the same problem and solved it, or who knows something about cars and can provide a clue.

    I have been exceptionally pleased with my Micra S....

    It's high on my list of favourite things about my micro. How many times did I shut off my last car, get out, and see a window down, thus having to get back in, insert the key, and push switch? Way,...

    Interesting, and good for them. My duct tape is still doing the job, but I will definitely have them do an official fix, when available. I didn't find anything about an official recall yet, so maybe...

    Just back from a 2000 kilometre road trip; first one with my Micra S. It was a great trip, and the car was far better than anticipated on the highways. Less wind noise than my old Forester, and more...

    Yes-- absolutely. I will take a picture this weekend.

    I put several strips of duct tape over the trim, and this completely solved the problem. Even if my foot slides over to that trim, it just slides over, rather than getting pinched / stuck. I was...

    Yes-- clear from the pictures, same trim, same issue. I appreciate that most have not experienced this issue. Most of the time, I do not either. But, when it does happen, it is a real (unpleasant)...

    I don't think this has to do with size of foot / shoe / boot. I think it has to do with the angle of the foot on the gas peddle.

    If the foot is pretty straight facing the front of the car, no...

    Actually, in the few hours I have had driving our new car, I did notice that this is an issue. I was going to look and see what my foot is getting caught up on this coming weekend. It is a concern,...

    Thanks. I think this site will be really handy, if / when questions or problems arise. There won't be the usual resources from the large USA population. Glad to have found the site.

    Thanks. That's stamped coloured concrete. We first saw it down in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Had to have it done at our place. Here is a picture of it, sans Micra:

    Thanks, MetroMPG. It's a pretty neck of the woods, but much like Squamish / Whistler-- worth a visit if you ever get back into this region.

    I wonder, too, if Nissan underestimated the demand for...

    When my 03 Subaru Forester with 230,000 kilometres started having problems, I started looking at used cars in the 2010-2011 range. Because I...
