The NISSAN MICRA (2003-10) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.4 16V SVE is a small, three-door petrol hatchback, designed for easy everyday motoring rather than carrying a large family. It sits among Britain’s popular supermini and city-car choices, offering a compact footprint that suits town streets, parking and shorter commutes with confidence too. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 47 checks across 26 distinct VINs, a useful sample of real-world interest. Those records show an average private-sale value of £1,200 and average recorded mileage of 101,000 miles; typical annual mileage is 4,000. The cars averaged about four previous keepers, so condition and history deserve careful checks. The 1.4-litre SVE is suited to first-time drivers, singles or couples seeking a manageable Micra for shopping and commuting. Its upright styling and size give it character, while the petrol engine feels more capable beyond town than city cars. Against rivals like the Fiesta, it favours simplicity and ease.
