Back on subject for the OP, as I don't want to start a new thread for a similar topic... Sed5000, did you not find 185/70/13's a bit too big for the front, did they not rub? I've just got some 175/70/13's on and they feel very tight on full lock, and that's at stationary, I don't know if...

How much for tailgate sprayed red and compltely debadged, collected, maybe fitted on the day of collection?

Hey mate, what's up with the Polo and where abouts are you? Just phone the owner of the Tempest and ask them outright aswell, they can't lie if they want a sale because as soon as you try it out you'll see if these features are on there or not. Mines a Micra Shape, and has no extras (part...

Hi, Just a quick question to those with Haynes's out there, what size and spec spark plug goes in the 1.0 K11 engine, I'm heading over to the shop tomorrow. Also what size increase does the engine take? On my old Golf, you used to be able to get away with putting one size up in the engine...

OK, so I got around to fixing the heater card, so I thought I'd post a how to here, so if any newbs post asking how to do it, you guys can redirect them. Anyway, under the passengers side of the dash, under the glovebox, you'll see something like this: Unscrew: Heater card should...

New tasks to complete: As well as all the othe tasks listed, I also now have to repair the heater card, I've got the old "either fully on or nothing at all" syndrome with mine at the moment! Might just try and ebay a new one... Unless anyone has any for sale here?

I've lifted one of my steelies up and I've moved the alloys from my car to my house when I got them, they're a hell of a lot lighter.... Anyway, here's a pic of one of the alloys so you guys know what I'm on about.... Don't you hate when you find your girlfriend has decided to use your...

Jay, K11 one I'm guessing? I hate the way K10 ones are dirt cheap on the bay, and K12 ones only a,ittle bit moire expensive, but K11 ones are proper expensive!!

Thanks for the kind words. @ Scouse Boy, I'm not based near Formby, I drove up there to get the car, I'm more near the Wigan end of things (Skelmersdale). Thousands of K11's here, wonder how many of them are on this site.... @ Manny, it's the same colour as a lot of K11's I think red must...

Ok, so late last month, I swapped my Citroen Saxo 1.4 in for something more economical and robust, and in the Autotrader, found a nice looking Polo for sale in Formby. Drove up, and it had been sold, but the guy showed me a couple of Micras he had in. After testing it, I fell in love with...

I've tried the bay and amazon, but both are quite expensive, on the old pug 309 I used to own, I got a haynes for 1p plus postage! Are there any online resources that have the same info as contained in the Haynes manuals such as torque settings and whatnot?

I've read his blog, very helpful. I think that supercharger should be whacked on the 1.0 to see what hp the 1.0 can really pull under optimal conditions....

Wallet is not exactly bottomless, hence wanting to do the jobs one by one over time. This does not mean I will skimp with cheap components, everything I buy will be the best of the best, it'll just take time to get them all... And as for going for 1.3 over a 1.0, I see getting a 40 hp...

Haha nah for insurance reasons, at least until my renewal in june, I want to keep the 1.0 in, they hit me hard enough when they were told I was thinking of whacking alloys on. And I'm 22. Rip-off merchants. Not that I condone lying to insurance companies, but uprated cams are easier to hide...

Hi, On the Micra I've got, everything is stock, but battered. I'm wanting to "do it up", make it nippier, lighter, and nicer looking etc, and above all, be able to top 100mph, it struggles past 80 at the moment, steering wheel shakes and the engine drones. 80 isn't bad for a 1 litre, but you...

Hi, As title suggests, I need somewelding work done on my exhaust, and I don't have the equipment to do it, if anyone wants to earn some money for just a couple of minutes work, please get in touch, I'm absolutely desperate! Thanks

In an old Mazda I used to drive, there were speakers built in to the dash... got me thinking, is this an opition in the Micra, if I were to buy two smaller speakers and maybe cut some holes in the passenger side dash to mount them in, would give a true surround sound feel. Sound liken a...

Hi, as the title suggests. I'm looking for a carpet for my boot, and for a replacement door for the drivers side, rear (it's a 5 door K11), mine is in red, other door will be too, preferably, with glass still fitted. Any offers of anyone breaking theirs. I also need a replacement...
