The NISSAN MICRA (2003-10) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.2 16V ACENTA+ is a city car: easy to park and practical for everyday trips. In the UK used-car market, it sits among affordable superminis, offering a compact alternative to larger family hatchbacks while still providing useful cabin space. Mycarcheck.com records 333 checks across 195 distinct VINs. Its data shows an average private-sale value of £2,000, average recorded mileage of 86,000 and annual use of 6,000 miles. Cars averaged about three previous keepers, so checking each car’s history and condition remains important. The three-door Acenta+ suits commuters, first-time drivers and couples wanting an economical runabout, though rear access is less convenient than in five-door rivals. Its 1.2-litre engine suits town and suburban driving, while manageable size and everyday comfort make the Micra an appealing alternative to the Ford Fiesta or Vauxhall Corsa. A well-kept example can deliver low-cost motoring for many used-car buyers.
