New Nissan Owner

[RichardFromMarple]

On Sunday 13/3/2017 I will be picking up my Micra, from West Way in Altrincham.

It will be the first Nissan I've owned.

I was shopping around for a car to replace my Toyota Yaris, & saw that West Way had an offer on nearly new cars, as they were trying to shift 66 plate cars ahead of the change to 17 plates.

At first I went to the West Way showroom in Stockport but they tried to steer me towards a new Micra, which was out of my price range.

I saw some Micras at the Altrincham dealers with good prices.  I found when I got there some of the lower priced cars had been sold, but they were willing to knock some money off a higher priced one for me.

This seemed the best offer available & I put a deposit down.

Now I'm waiting for the finance & other paperwork to be processed.

The car I chose was a 66 reg Micra Acenta in Pacific Blue.

Thanks I did quite a bit of research before choosing a Micra, so I knew I was in safe hands.

If I had passengers on a regular basis I would have got a Note, you seem to get a lot of car for your money with them.

Yes, agree...they seem to be quite popular lately

I picked up my Micra today, & after the usual dealing with paperwork  & such I gave it a good run.

This ended up longer than I expected thanks to a navigation error, but I managed to get it home OK.

On the whole I found it easy to drive, with the gearbox & clutch needing some getting used to, which I'm sure I'll master.

Glad you enjoyed it....I'm sure it won't take long to get used to it
