Hi folks, Thanks in advance for any advice on this matter.
I am about to change a c v rubber outer boot and was wondering if anyone had done this with a parkside impact driver. Was wondering if anyone had used one to get the strut nuts under and if it was short enough to get in there. It is...
Heh folks,
I was just wondering if anyone had an experience of buying a radiator for a K11and what they thought of the brands. Anyone tried tried the EIS, Starline or Nissens brand from ECP or NRF on ebay. Many thanks in advance for an input on t
I've been trying to get the same luk clutch for months. The uk importer recons it will be the middle of this month but am not holding my breath. Looking for a really light clutch alternative but no one seems to know. Oh well, up wards and onwards.
Hi folks,
Just wondering if anyone knows what the lightest brand of k11 clutch is? I have read that it is the original brand LUK but can't get one at the moment.
Thanks for any light that can be shed on this
Hi everyone,
Have a few problems getting a LUK clutch for a k11 at the moment for an 02 model. Emailed suppliers and importers as have not been able to get one for six weeks. just wondering if any one else has had souring problems. Thanks anyway. Looks like release bearing gone stiff.
I agree, I think with 10,000 micra members , if everyone chipped in just a little, some land or something could be bought as a micra graveyard and members could go there and get all the spares they need for free. Just an idea.
I agree. It really does not take much to keep an k11 on the road. All people have to do is get some rust proofer in the sill and cross member and these cars will last for ever but many don't know this and it is the rust here that ends up finishing most of them.
Funny enough, i think I have an obsession with how many of these cars are still on the road. Sadly, I agree with you.
I have been checking most of the ones for sale every day for the last couple of years.
I have noticed that around two thirds to three quarters of the one for sale have either...
Check out this story in the Daily Express about a 1 litre micra, he bought from a scrappy for £4.60

I been scanning sites for k11's for a few years now. I would say the biggest challenge you have looking for one at the moment is finding one without any corrosion or not been welded for less than £800. Finding one within reach may take a bit of time IMHO. Gumtree seems to list the most of them...
Just out of curiosity. How long were and how many micras did you look at before you found yours and what was the cost? No easy feat i think during lockdown.
