The NISSAN MICRA (1995-03) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.3 SI is a small three-door hatchback and familiar UK city car. Its compact shape suits narrow streets and tight parking, while the 1.3-litre engine offers more flexibility than the smallest town cars. Today, it sits in the affordable older-used-car market for budget-conscious buyers. It suits solo drivers, couples or first-time motorists needing inexpensive transport, rather than families needing lots of space. Three doors limit rear access, but the Micra is easy to place on the road and straightforward to live with. Against rivals such as the Ford Fiesta, it offers compact, no-fuss motoring. mycarcheck.com records are based on a small sample: six checks covering three distinct VINs. They show an average private-sale valuation of £500, average recorded mileage of 61,000 and nearly five previous keepers; these figures are indicative, not a guide to every car. Check each example’s condition, history and value carefully.
