The NISSAN MICRA (1995-03) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.0 TEMPEST is a small, five-door city hatchback designed for easy everyday motoring. In the UK used-car market, it sits among affordable, simple runabouts rather than larger family cars. Its compact size suits town streets and parking, while rear doors make access more convenient. Mycarcheck.com checks show 82 look-ups covering 68 distinct VINs, offering a snapshot of this model. The average private-sale valuation was £500, with average recorded mileage of 69,000 and annual mileage of 5,000. Cars had nearly four previous keepers on average, so checking each car’s history and condition is especially worthwhile. Tempest suits first-time drivers, commuters and those needing an affordable car for short trips. Five doors add practicality; friendly styling, simple controls and easy town manners are classic Micra strengths. Against a Ford Fiesta or Vauxhall Corsa, it is an approachable, economical budget runabout for everyday town use and commuting.
