March 6, 20178 yr On Sunday 13/3/2017 I will be picking up my Micra, from West Way in Altrincham. It will be the first Nissan I've owned. I was shopping around for a car to replace my Toyota Yaris, & saw that West Way had an offer on nearly new cars, as they were trying to shift 66 plate cars ahead of the change to 17 plates. At first I went to the West Way showroom in Stockport but they tried to steer me towards a new Micra, which was out of my price range. I saw some Micras at the Altrincham dealers with good prices. I found when I got there some of the lower priced cars had been sold, but they were willing to knock some money off a higher priced one for me. This seemed the best offer available & I put a deposit down. Now I'm waiting for the finance & other paperwork to be processed. The car I chose was a 66 reg Micra Acenta in Pacific Blue.
March 7, 20178 yr Hi Richard....welcome to the Forum Congratulations on your new car...I think you'll be pleased with it, they're a good little car Cheers Trevor
March 7, 20178 yr Author Thanks I did quite a bit of research before choosing a Micra, so I knew I was in safe hands. If I had passengers on a regular basis I would have got a Note, you seem to get a lot of car for your money with them.
March 12, 20178 yr Author I picked up my Micra today, & after the usual dealing with paperwork & such I gave it a good run. This ended up longer than I expected thanks to a navigation error, but I managed to get it home OK. On the whole I found it easy to drive, with the gearbox & clutch needing some getting used to, which I'm sure I'll master.
