What Car? says
For It’s cheap to buy and run, it's reliable and it has lively engines
Against Styling is a bit Noddy and safety kit is poor
Verdict
It's got a Mumsy image and it's very basic, but it's a bargain to buy and own
Go for… 1.0 Twister 5dr
Avoid… 1.0 Profile 3dr
- 1. Micras are a byword for reliability, rating well in our Reliability Index and JD Power surveys
- 2. Look out for poorly maintained cars that rattle at the top of the engine when idling
- 3. Servicing is cheap and most spares are cheaper than average as well
- 4. The Micra's small compared with many superminis. Space is good up front, but tight in the back
- 5. The Micra gained just two stars out of five for occupant safety in Euro NCAP tests
