Fair enough Nis boy, you seem to be on the pulse ?

Well, Just started searching for another late k11 without any rot in it for around £500. It is proving not to as easy as one might think. As Lord Sugar say"the search continues"..

K11's around 20 years old in good condition are going for prices around 1500 2000 on garage forecourts. Testament to how good they are.

I agree also. Just put my car through MOT. 18 year old 1 Liter S Thing I needed to do to get it to pass Fix problem with idle issue. Cable slack. No Cost Changed brake pads and shims. £12 Two bulbs over no plate £5 Things I needed someone else...

Yea, thats right. Th MOT guy said there may be a bit of rust coming on the underside of the floor on the passenger side also. so need to pull carpet up and check that. there was me thinking it was the just the sills that had to be monitored with and eagle eye..lol

Garage wax oiled internally from new. It may have slowed rust down but did not seem to work fully. You could well be right about water getting in through drain holes as the sound proofing seemed to be stuck to the metal floor,. which may well sort of indicates moisture. Or may have been...

Hi folks. Just curious. Sorry to flog the old rust thread to death. Though has anyone had a problem with rust under the back of the driver's seat. This 2001 micra was waxoyled under the seat from new and came factory undersealed under the floor. It has still manged to create a hole the size and...

Cool, you messaging them?

I got a good aftermarket MAf a year ago. I had similar problems to you for £21 and you can send it back if it is not the problem for a small restock fee. The have a good reputation but I got it via ebay...

hi Richard, Sorry for the delay and thanks for replying. Just checked the cable and where the nipple meets the foot peddle, it looks like it has broken and the inner cable has stretched. I just lengthened the outer cable at the throttle body to make up for the inner cable being slack and...

Hi folks, Just wondering if anyone has had a problem with idle having a mind of it's own sometimes. It is most noticeable on startup as it revs up twice to three times as high as it should. It also sometimes does it while warm. It usually revs back down slowly after about ten seconds. If the...

Put it like this, I left my micra in humid conditions in Autumn around this time of the year with the front end about three foot higher overnight. The next day about a quarter of a cup of water had collected in the back of each sill. That is how much moisture at least condenses and can collect...

Looks like turquoise to me. I think the brexit party want your car as it is their official colour. ;p:p

Great, i'll have to check if this company is a national chain.

Cheers, yea, that sounds like a similar situation to my car. While mine just requires the usual small weld or rubber CV boot, I will try and keep it going as long as possible. I have thought thou about getting another similar to it, so if it does fail, I have a spare to take it's place straight...

cheers, yea. That sounds fair enough, 2 to three hundred.. I only do about 3,000 a year in mine, so it is just the corrosion that seems to affect it.

Fair point there Nis boy, cheers. Over the last four year, My micra just usually needs a small patch or two yearly around the usual rear sills area (£25 for a small patch). Also, a rubber boot every few years( Blue print £10 plus 20 to 30 fitting) This year needs some brake pads( Old stock...

Hi Folks, Would be really interesting on hearing people's thoughts on what the average maximum spend would be to get an 18 year old micra through its MOT. ? Personally, with up to two or three small jobs and a the MOt fee included, I would say it would be worth spending up to £150 total. This...
