Hi Folks! My Micra K11 Facelift '51 reg lost its front nearside wheel trim on Saturday. This is what they look like: http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8111/8597750164_8b08aa33e6.jpg I think that I am going to have to buy a complete set as I dont think I will find a matching one. I have looked...

I renewed the insurance on my K11 last week, having sorted out the claim with the third party insurers after my Micra was rammed by the third party whilst driving without due care and attention More Th<n restored my 4 years NCB and I got a good deal with Aviva £283 - last year I paid £413 More...

My current K11 51 Reg automatic was £2000 but it only had 7068 miles on the clock verified by VOSA according to Which car the book price was £1998 so I paid £2 over the book value. It was previously owned by an old lady hence the low mileage. Is my first owned car after 21 years in a Motability...

Hi Folks! On January 31st I will have had my K11 (which is my 3rd K11 - I had 2 in succession between 1994-2000 on Motability) called Milly for 1 year. Milly's MOT is due on 22nd January so I booked an MOT at my local authority MOT centre in Bishop's Waltham, Hampshire for today. Being a...

Had the stereo upgraded in my K11 automatic so that I can plug my iPod in unfortunately there is no available iPod/MP3 player adapter (that I know of) that will play through the CD unlike my R5 Supercinq automatic where all I had to do was spend £14 in Argos to buy an iPod cassette adapter !!!

My current K11 did have an advisory on it's MOT in October last year that there was a stain that suggested that the PAS fluid was leaking a bit. Then someone put a dent in the O/S quarter panel and the insurance had it declared Cat. D and it was repaired requiring a new MOT in January this year...

Hi I had 2 K11's 1994 and 1997 and a K12 2005 on Motability I presently own a 2001 51 reg K11 all automatics as I have a physical disability and only hold an automatic licence. Regarding the mechanics on both the K11's and K12 never had a problem all had a good smooth drive. However...

I can now post a better comparison photo. I have had a busy week, as on Wednesday I bought an immaculate Renault 5 1.4 automatic in White, it has only done 26,400 miles the first owner (1988-98) and 2nd owner (1991-2011) both garaged it the 2nd owner also worked abroad, since July last year it...

I think the similarities are obvious Mark Bognor is right the R5 was the first supermini and car in Europe to have plastic bumpers and I believe that it was also the first European car that was design so that the cabin remained in one piece in an accident.

Hadn't really thought of it that way but of course Nissan and Renault are now in an alliance so it figures! Looking at the Wikipedia page for the Clio it lists then Micra as being related: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renault_Clio#Clio_II_.281998.E2.80.932012.29

My Micra which was 10 in Nov (51 reg) and also called Millie still has her two original keys I'm sending them both in with her at the next service to both have new batteries fitted although they work perfectly fine I thought as they are 10 years old now that I should get new batteries in them...

Hi Folks! As you know I have a Mica K11 facelift 51 reg automatic. My first three cars were all Renault 5 (Mark 1 1972-1984) automatics. Despite the Micra's reputation for reliability recently I was thinking of switching to a Renault 5 auto if a suitable one came up which it did but I decided...

Dear Sleeper, Yes I think that when it comes to the HPI reading whoever entered that added an extra zero! The mileage is genuine, the MOT history which has been recorded from 2006 and available from Direct Gov the Micra (called Millie) was owned from new by an elderly lady she took it to the...

Hi Folks! I have a Micra K11 Facelift automatic reg 51. I have had it since January this year I previously had 2 K11's on Motability between 1994-2000 so know what great cars they are. In the last week of April my Micra was rear ended by a speeding driver attempting to overtake without due...

Sorry they have been removed perhaps someone else can post a photo of a K11 Facelift with its rear headrests.

I worked it out with my neighbour's help we used my car key to depress the metal strip that is visible in the plastic bit that the headrest fits into and my neighbour was able to pull each headrest up and out once this strip was depressed.

Hi Folks! I want to remove the two headrests from the rear seats on my K11 facelift called Millie. As I don't have any family its only ever my Yorkie and Yorkie x Westie La Mademoiselles Nosselle who sit in the back. The rear headrests are quite high up I have tried removing them there is no...
