Can anyone tell me what the MSC membership cards look like? Cheers & happy weekend Dave

Cool convertible, I've only ever seen one in the metal & that was in Malta ! Can I just ask what's that red button do that's at the front of the Transmission selector housing? I've seen it on a few JDM cars & don't know what it's for, my UK CVT doesn't have it :confused:

Hi I was wondering what's the spec' differences between an Irish Micra & one from England? Cheers :)

I only feel 25, until I run up a flight of stairs :D

Hello all As the sun is shining (for now) it made me think of holidays so I just thought I'd share a good place if you like Micra's. At the back end of last year the girlfriend & I went to Menorca & it was absolutely teeming with K11's, they were even still in use as hire-cars in some places ...

I've just realised that at nearly 44 I'm rapidly getting to be one of the old people :eek:;)

Yes they do seem very popular with old people. I quite like the "blue rinse" image, always makes people's eye brows raise when even my (standard) 1.3 CVT zooms off, most folk probably think it can't go over 20mph ;) The mention of scrapyards has whetted my appetite. I haven't been to one in...

Yes I think that's one of the things I tend to notice in younger cars is how cheap & flimsy they feel. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure in terms of crash protection etc they may be light years ahead of an old K11 (i'll take my chances though ;)) but generally they don't feel as solid. The...

Nice little Micra, I like Eddie's new extra's. Power windows look very cool on these. My Micra, called Muji, says hi :D

Thanks to help/advice from Matt/SuperUno on this Forum, I managed to take the roof/gutter trim off & treated some rust. I love these great little cars a lot but the rustproofing is a bit dodgy :rolleyes:

I must admit a K10 is a rare bird around here (I saw one the other day but it was the first in ages), I always liked those but have never had one. I did a car maintenance course 12 years ago & a knackered K10 at the garage was our practice car ! In those days I drove a Renault 5 Auto, which put...

Hello Has anyone else noticed how many K11's there are still about? I was ambling back from Aldi yesterday (I have a rock & roll lifestyle !) And couldn't help Micra spotting as usual & noting there are still loads about. As it's 11 years since there were last built & 20+ years since their...

Superb. Thanks very much for your help on that, much appreciated. Dave

Hello Cheers Matt, presumably they just clip in, so can just be clipped back? Ta Dave

Hello I've not posted for many moons on here but I'm still a Micra fan ! Anyway, can someone help advise how to remove the black trims on top of the roof on a K11 facelift that perform a similar function to gutters did on older cars? My roof has started to go rusty just under/near the front of...

The washer jets blocking can also be caused by your screenwash additive. I changed a while ago to a ready mixed one that you don't dilute & after never having had a problem in 8 years they blocked. After clearing the jets, emptying out the ready mixed stuff & changing back to a screenwash that's...

Got to agree with all you say apart from the underpowered K11 bit. I have a K11 1.3 CVT & whilst it's no Porsche it does shift quite well if needs be & I quite enjoy surprising modern car owners grr. Once drove a 1.0 though & found that a bit sluggish. Modern cars do always feel a bit...

Welcome & nice little Micra Like the Superman badge (Y):grinning:

The exact same scenario with screeching stop at the traffic lights, the reluctance to drive away/ revving, then lurch after stopping quickly (& yes even the eventual sheepish drive off :laugh: ) happened to me a few weeks ago. I'd certainly be interested as to any explanation as to why the...

Hello all. Apart from the obvious difference in engine size, is there really that much difference performance-wise etc between the 1.3 & 1.4 engine in the K11's? The CVT Auto's gearbox on the later K11's also appears to have some sort of Sport button on it (my 1.3 CVT doesn't have that)...
