    Got it Monday May 5 th 2014. What a fantastic car. Love the color. Love the car. Today I drove up to 120 kl per hour and the tach was only at 2900. I question the one that said the Micra was loud at 120 kl per hour and was at 3500 RPM. Must not have bin in overdrive.
    A good clean after two weeks running.

    I love this fantastic Micra. Love the ride. Love the colour. Love the size. Love the light in the hatchback. Love the bluetooth. Love the fact the rear windows go all the way down. Love the headlights that someone took time to aim in the right places. Love the fuel filler being on the drivers side. Love that the fuel filler door locks from inside the car. (No need for key.) Love the stainless steel license bolts put on by dealer.

    IMPORTANT: My Husband Bruce said you near ran out of fuel so you should check the fliud levels. I reported back to him.
    No brake fluid.
    No coolant.
    No washer fluid.
    Engine oil was full.
    He says the brake fluid was full to the top and so clean you can not see it through the white plastic. (Only if you take the cap off.)
    The coolant jug is 14 inches high and the Min. mark is 2 inches from the bottom. At cold it had 5 inches in the 14 inch jug and that is ok. Washer fluid was hard to see once it was used below the filler tube but it was fine. (Yard sales Tomorrow)

    Don't forget to check your blinker fluid level.


    In our culture obsessed with absurd excess, the Nissan Micra is my counterculture car of choice.

    In Nissans the blinker fluid tank is next to the muffler bearings.

    Antruby, have you or Bruce been monitoring your Micra's fuel economy? What does your L/100 km display said after a tank of fuel?

    Really? 4.3 would be astonishingly good!

    How fast do you typically cruise on the highway?
