    "Thrust issues" build log

    I'm gonna write about the stuff I learn along the way and I don't think theres a better place to start than engine oil! So, engine oil gets rated according to it's viscosity. I'm gonna take 15w40 as an example (recommended for the micra). The W stands for winter, which means that in cold...

    buying first micra, scared of external temp. gauge

    Hi everyone, Just created my profile after months of greed, lust and lurk here. I have a perfectly fine car, but I need a k11. I absolutely adore these things. I found a reasonably cheap 1.3 k11 which seems very well kept, however there's an external temp. gauge. I haven't test drove the car...
