Why?

Same reason as any other small-car variant?

Why?

Because manufacturers can charge more money for less car and people will buy them cause the sun shines on their heads :(

To expand on that, she was saying "If you were going to get a 2 seater car, why would you get a Micra, wouldn't you want to base it on something which isn't crap in the first place" ... "I bet she went into the showroom looking to buy an ordinary Micra and got sold the expensive one"

[Daniel]

Because some people don't know anything about cars and will buy something because no one else seems to have it.

[Woodeye]

And there's also somekind of GTI version of that car. For reason completely unclear for me.

Nobody won't by Grandma Duck's car - even if it's tuned. :D

Although it is a hideous car to look at, and has been known to make children cry, the Micra is technically quite a decent little motor.

But that's the car equivalent of saying "she's got a lovely personality". :p

[nicemms]

Because girls no nothing about cars and they probably think it looks cute.

I just say 'Micra, why?''

Well said!

Well if they weren't produced there'd be around 4000 people unemployed in the Sunderland area, and Grandpa/Grandma wouldn't have anything to spend their retirement lump sum on, now we have seen the demise of Rover :p :

Crap - Ugly. Crugly. Do you speak Micra?

[Dave B]

Yup. It's shollocks.

In my town someones got the CC version of the Micra in bright pink, the same as hammond drove in top gear, and she has her hair dyed a similar colour. Nuts.

Is this the one that comes in pink?

LOL, saw a woman today driving a pink Ford Galaxy, with pink fluffy dice, headrests, steering wheel, and hub caps!! :D

On the subject of the micra - great little car. Have to drive one everyday for work and its immensely chuckable and humbles many a lotus elise etc. on my local country lanes.

Sonic :)

Indeed it is

[Ian McC]

Indeed it is

So you can spray a piece of poo pink but it is still a piece of poo :erm:

Oi the Micra is actually a great wee car to drive, mum got hers in September and okay it is only a 1.25 so a tad underpowered but it is a great chassis you can chuck it into any corner and no over or understeer. like a mini but reliable

nothing wrong with Nissan's in general I love my Almera great car and superb value for money when bought used

I shall await the brickbats :-)

[odykas]

This car looks like the monkey's butt.

If you are going to buy a small coupé why not buying the Opel/Vauxhall Tigra/what's-its-name ? It looks really good!
