Took her out in the snow before it really set in for the night. Turns out that my local McCarpark wasn't gritted, so I was able to get a healthy 20 box of Mcnuggets, and eat them whole sliding sideways [emoji3] I finally got round to giving her an oil change yesterday in prep for the cold snap...

Completely so [emoji6][emoji2] other than the crossmember, she's basically rust free. So the long-term plan is to find a 1.3l for dirt cheap, and drop it in. A tow hitch would also be good, but having trouble finding one nearby for a decent price ahaha [emoji16] Sent from my XT1562 using Micra...

So, update As I've had time off work, I thought I'd better sort out the crossmember. I had a poke around, and the whole thing was... A hole I ended up getting a whole front panel from eBay for £10 more than it would have been for just the crossmember, and considering I needed a new bonnet latch...

Did a dry run for the crossmember and whole front panel replacement. Basically undid everything is need to. For a 20 year old car, there was no seized bolts (touch wood). Considering this went through an MOT last august, I can only assume the tester was blind, as they somehow missed that the...

Thanks Liam [emoji1] Okay so first update It turns out that the roof rack is every bit as functional as I had hoped it'd be. I've been using it to carry pallets home from the garden center because, at the grand price of £1 each, 4 pallets is a damn slight cheaper than a shop bought bed frame...

So this is my first post here, despite having spent most of the last week browsing threads. I guess this also doubles as my "Hi, I'm new here" post. It has been almost a week now since I caved in and finally got myself a K11 Micra, and honestly, I wish I'd done it sooner. It was kind of an...

I drive class 2 lorries when I'm at work, and nuggety little cars when I'm not.
