I need to sell my K11 Micra. I live in the current ULEZ zone, so cannot travel far in it already, and will not be able to travel at all from the end of August.
Also I am 74 now, and have arthritis in my knees and feet so need a very reliable car. I have had her almost from new (1997), and she has been very reliable. Only in the last year has developed an issue that no doubt an enthusiast could sort out. What happens is that when the car gets a bit warmed up, after about 1/2 hour , she starts to jolt and falter. The engine tries to cut out on deceleration. I have been told by a local car mechanic that it could be the throttle body, or maybe something simpler. It is sadly not worth me spending money on the car now, for reasons above mentioned. It has only done 75000 miles, has very little rust, and only one shallow dent, on a door. I do not want to scrap her. It would be a waste.
