Buying a Used Nissan Micra

The Micra is manufactured by the Japanese car maker Nissan and it has been on the road since 2002. The car makes no attempt to market itself as anything other that what it really is: a car that appeals almost exclusively to female city dwellers. In fact, the car is often compared to the equally feminine Volkswagen Beetle.

Why is the Micra a car that tends to appeal to female drivers? Well, to be honest, you’d probably have to see a picture. But trust us…it’s not a guy’s car. For one thing, it’s a small car, even for a supermini, and the features and styling are undeniably delicate. Some reviewers have even used the word "cutesy" to describe the car.

But, if you can get passed the exterior, you will quickly discover a well-designed and engineered little car. To begin with, the car gets excellent petrol millage at 7.2 litres per 100 KM, which will save the average city driver hundreds of pounds a year in petrol. And the car itself is cheap at a starting price of only eight-thousand pounds. So, if you are considering buying a used nissan micra , it will likely be easy enough to find a great price.

While the Micra is clearly not for everyone, you have to hand it to Nissan. This is a car that is not trying to appeal to a large demographic, but rather to a small segment of the population who want a car that is a bit on the girly side and gets good petrol mileage and drives well in the cities. Since the Micra has been out since 2002, it should not be difficult to locate a reasonably-priced used model at your local car dealer.

The Micra also comes chock full of standard features, so the base model should provide you with all of the amenities you desire. The cabin is also deceptively roomy and can accommodate even a tall fellow, not that he would be caught dead in a Micra, unless his girlfriend forced him in.
