Love that 'no money for BBS' sticker 😂. To be honest most of us young lads on a budget can relate

[@TheRazorJDM]

I'm young, but I get expensive parts, but unfortunately I get new parts very rarely due to that reason 😂 but do they feel good when done with proper stuff. But car isn't super cheap

[@JOSTIE23]

Zain K yes

[@TrollingHistory]

@@TheRazorJDM 100% buy right buy once. Buy cheap buy twice. Ide rather used than no name.

[@ozhoneybadger]

I had a Micra at 20 and sold it when I was 28/28. I didn't drive much but the Micra done the job and got me around the UK to far destinations. My one wasn't really good on fuel I got like 37 average. Very fun though used to fly around corners and roundabouts. Never felt embarrassed but I realised people would laugh especially girls. You need to have confidence to drive this haha.

Nissan March super turbo is just a micro with a different engine and that is a kei car,

many kei cars were sold in europe with 1 litre engines in place of the kei regulation 660cc used on the JDM... dont remember all of them but the subaru sambar was sold in europe with a 1 litre under the Libero name instead of Sambar. other thaan the engine, same car.

Great Micra! Anyone a tipp to get the k11 deeper without adjustable dampers? Got a fully sportsuspension (- 1,5 inch), but it didn´t get much lower, probably because of the minimum-wheight (no extras). Thanks!

Really quick and really reliable for what they are. Cheap insurance and cheap to repair.

weirdly, my first car was convertible mini one, then I had a 7th gen Celica, then a 2.2d x type and now I'm looking for a micra for the funny side of modding it, they honestly look really nice when lowered and on nice rims and a few body mods.

If the young driver declares to the insurance company the modifications they either won’t get insurance or it will be very expensive. If they don’t declare it their insurance will not be valid.
