    Used micra, 16k miles, few issues, not sure whether to buy?

    Brought a cheap Corsa in the end for the misses to use, will work on our current Micra as she wont be using it for work every day, see if shes fixable and buy myself another perhaps in the following months, much easier to find a better one if your not rushing! The rattling sound is annoying, and...

    Used micra, 16k miles, few issues, not sure whether to buy?

    Thanks for the reply guys! Think ill look round for other micras then, However if our current one brakes down I don't think its worth saving and we need a car urgently for work. I can attach pictures at some point perhaps but the exterior is in terrible shape and too many little things wrong...

    Used micra, 16k miles, few issues, not sure whether to buy?

    Cheers For the reply, If theres not an immediate problem with the clutch we will probably just get used to it, although ill certainly give it a go as it seems to bother my partner if we buy it! Checked it over with my hands and all seems pretty smooth underneath, its definitely been done...

    Used micra, 16k miles, few issues, not sure whether to buy?

    We currently have a k11, however the CV joints are in bad shape, timing chain rattles, the body is appauling since buying and the clutch plates have nearly gone. After 20-30k miles in about 2 and a half years we think its time to let go :( Love the k11 though and would rather sink the money into...

    Nissan micra slx 1.3 for sale.

    Is this still for sale? Might be a little far and we are looking into options, but definitely want another k11 and would rather one that's been looked after and well maintained, hence why we are here and not ebay! Will consider it anyway. Based near Halifax by the way.

    gauging interest - k11 facelift 1L

    May be interested, looking for a k11, however our budget is unfortunately limited. Realistically how much would you be looking at selling this for? Rest assured it would be well looked after, will be our second micra, however loved the first so much we want another one we can keep and be proud...

    Skymera's Breaking Thread

    Might be interested in the sr clocks, the connections to most of the bulbs have broke on mine. Unfortunately I have the old style with the oil temp on the left, speedometer and fuel on the right. Any idea whether this will fit?

    Interior light

    I made the mistake of buying an LED one, unfortunately its a directional one and the bulb likes to rotate upwards!

    Micra k11 cold start problems?

    Going to give it a go later today when the throttlebody arrives, along with a service (maybe not the oil, its a bit sketchy as were in the centre of Cardiff on a busy road!) Purchased a T bar spark plug wrench, completely forgot the allen key! Ill cross that bridge when I come to it, luckily...

    Micra k11 cold start problems?

    Thanks Pollyp, might not be what's causing the problem but it looks like an easy fix, definitely worth a try! Brought a new throttle body, now unfortunately I've been quoted £80 to fit one, and £40 to run a diagnostics check, I'm going to phone some garages on Monday and see if I can find a more...

    Micra k11 cold start problems?

    I certainly wouldn't pay halfords for the service, however the throttle body is a little out of my depth! (The £200 quote is from a seperate garage though, I daren't ask halfords a price) The spark plugs, filters and oil I will probably end up doing if I can't get a decent price :/ Does the...

    Micra k11 cold start problems?

    Hi guys, My partner has recently purchased a k11, 1995 1 litre, it passed its MOT in December with no minors or majors! Unfortunately when we purchased it the petrol cap was missing, we thought this may have caused problems but replaced it fairly quickly, some water may have leaked into the...
