I didn't end up with anything yesterday... But got my eye on something which will hopefully stick around till I get a chance to get to it!? There is a lot of crap around & almost everything, especially down here in south Wales, is stupidly overpriced... I dunno where people get their prices...

Ah, thats a good point about the sunroof!... Unfortunately theres not a lot of 1.3Ls about...

Right guys, as you know my Micra was written off a few weeks. Not had much luck locally sourcing one so going further afield today... There's a few options so just wanted to weigh up some pros & cons. Was basically gonna go for same as before: pre-coil face-lift, 3 door, 1L... Just wondering...

Hahaha... I'm remembering the movie Due Date now... Brilliant!

In a bit of pain... Well, quite a bit to be honest. But the worst bit really is not having the Micra. I've been provided with a courtesy car, a brand new 1.2 Corsa... and its poo! First off, considering it is classed as a small car, its massive, it's the size of a Ford Focus or bigger!? It is...

I'm not too bad... Got whiplash which didn't set in until the next day and obviously got no Micra anymore. Insurance have offered a grand for it, which I suppose is pretty reasonable? Just waiting for a valuation back on the demon to see if I can buy it back, doubt she'll get repaired, I'll just...

Not so much what did I do to my micra today, but what did somebody else do to my micra on Thursday... I should've put this up sooner but the last few days have been a nightmare as you can imagine... Cars a write off, boot floor creased... Absolutely devastated like. More details and pics...

This is what I was gonna say, they're like little hockey puck looking things... I've used them before, as Sky said, problem gone in a day or 2!... Just jeep them out of reach of any pets/kids you might have obviously...

Any progress with all this lovely weather we've been having? Perfect for spraying! :)

Green ticket... Faultless pass, no advisories! Gonna start giving this car more love now. Can't afford to spend much anymore but I will be taking care of cosmetic & under body stuff to keep her in tip top condition...

At the MOT centre as we speak... Green or red, time will tell!? Got a feeling brakes may be an advisory if not a full failure. Also, one headlight occasionally decides not to work on the first switch on so hoping she behaves herself with that!? One of my chrome side repeater bulbs died this...

I know what you mean, I waited ages for an OEM shelf with speakers but was well worth it, they do make so much difference! I'm sure it's easily achievable with off the shelf speakers too, maybe even better? I'd say get a standard shelf from a scrappy, cut some holes in, reinforce it & buy the...

Not yet, funds haven't allowed it yet... I've got a little put aside now but I've just taken a huge pay cut so it's there more for if she goes wrong than anything else... :( The wheels were just painted with generic stuff from my local autofactors, the blue was in those little touch up cans you...

Hmmm, strange... Never thought of it like that but it does make sense really doesn't it? It's just strange how the human mind sees a gauge split into equal parts & so makes the assumption the measure of each is the same... Thanks for that... Really got me thinking...

Mine seems to run better with a full tank... Just seems nippier & more responsive? One thing I have noticed though which is really frustrating is that it seems to take ages for the fuel gauge to come down from full to half way, think I normally average about 190 miles on that half & think great...

Ah, interesting... Be good to see what people's experiences have been with different PSIs. I've been wanting to experiment but thought I'd wait till I got new rubber... Now I've got it I'm all about maintaining MPG and tyre longevity so just wanna find optimum PSI really & just understand the...
