In this video I took my 1L turbocharged (turbo'd) Nissan micra k11 that tiktok built on a 2500 mile road trip around Europe. The main goals of this trip was to get to Monaco, park outside the casino and also drive on the famous Stelvio pass. Boris the micra didn't get through this journey without breaking down, running out of fuel and leaking oil as you will see, but did the car make it to the finish line?

5:21 honestly, I think that 1 liter turbo Micra has the best sound of those three. I mean, a V8 is nice and all, but the deep roar of that inline engine is just awesome.

[@JackMcNeillCars]

Don’t tell Mat and Chris 🤫 😂

[@onebig8828]

you never deserve to drive again

[@ladyinthetrampcinderellaman]

Id say better than the n/a v8 but not the red aston

[@assfans3618]

it sounds very Japanese

[@SagrenRajen]

Lol​@@JackMcNeillCars

[@ReijiSerpent]

My very first car was a Micra. No turbo, upgrading, or anything, just a plain old, small car. Still, I loved it with all my heart and I almost cried on this video. One of the bests cars I've ever sat in. Good job with the upgrades, the style, and the look.

[@tec-9672]

f****ing hell the quality is crisp and editing on point give my man jack some recognition already ffs well done mate

[@evanhubble611]

25:00 This car was not made for this but its doing it. I feel like that should be the motto for micras. I've got one and live in Wales so it struggles on every hill, but it does it. The mighty micra is a trooper

[@JackMcNeillCars]

Literally. They do it all disguised as a granny mobile. Absolute weapons

Ladies and gentlemen, that was a great recap of what looks like an epic trip!

[@JackMcNeillCars]

Hahah Thankyou man!!

[@Peakwanderer]

A humble little Micra is all you need, I imagine you also had more fun and a much greater sense of achievement than the Aston drivers did. I love my K11.

[@JackMcNeillCars]

Hahah exactly! A micra is all you need 💪🏼Although Mat and Chris completely rebuilt their astons, so I imagine they felt a good sense of achievement too.

[@Bob-tm5re]

Absolutly amazing work and what a trip guys. My second car is a micra K11 1.3i from 1998 and i want to turbo the bugger now, but i am not a mechanic but more of a hobbyist. The car is also in less good shape than Boris is. You gave me something to think about. Greetings from the Netherlands....

[@beamboy07]

Is it a prefacelift?

[@Bob-tm5re]

@@beamboy07 yes, i started with taking a lot of stuff out, like the seats, carpet and plastic parts. Some small repairs have to be done before i start with the big stuff. Got some nice wheels powdercoated, and looking for some nice tyres. Next on the list are coilovers, lowering the suspension, brakesystem, do some paint repair. When all problems are fixed, i start with engine work and turbo. Some small spots have to be welded.

[@kevinhaigh1654]
