The NISSAN MICRA (2003-10) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.4 16V SE is a small five-door hatchback aimed squarely at UK city-car buyers. Easy to park and simple to live with, it offers more practicality than a tiny two-seat runabout while remaining compact for crowded streets and everyday errands. It sits among established supermini rivals such as the Ford Fiesta and Vauxhall Corsa. The 1.4-litre petrol engine gives this Micra useful flexibility for urban driving and short motorway trips, and the SE trim makes it a more comfort-focused choice than a basic small car. Five doors and a usable rear seat suit first-time drivers, couples and small families, though boot and cabin space are modest beside larger hatchbacks. Mycarcheck.com records 205 look-ups across 138 VINs; sampled cars averaged 90,000 miles, 3.8 previous keepers and 6,000 miles yearly. Average private-sale valuation was £1,200, making this a budget-minded used city car for practical everyday motoring.
