The NISSAN MICRA (2003-10) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.6 16V 160 SR is a five-door supermini: a small, easy-to-park hatchback aimed at town driving, but with a stronger engine and sportier character than ordinary Micras. It suits commuters, younger drivers and small households wanting useful rear doors and everyday practicality without moving to a larger car. The SR stands out for its livelier 1.6-litre performance and distinctive sporty trim, giving it more punch and personality than many rival city cars, such as the Ford Fiesta, Vauxhall Corsa and Toyota Yaris. It remains compact and approachable, making parking and short trips straightforward, while the five-door layout is more convenient than a three-door alternative. Expect a firmer, more energetic feel than a basic Micra rather than a full performance-car experience. mycarcheck.com has recorded 139 checks covering 78 VINs; cars averaged 90,000 miles, 5,000 miles yearly and four previous keepers, with private-sale values around £1,700.
