How can you be so sure? You didnt ask?

and i give about £450 for it about 2 years ago.
Mine cost me £150, and i spent about £250 on it getting it on the road. HMM had to edit that about 4times, brain dead :(
a ph.1 black saloon Vectra GSi with rusty arches.
Mine cost £200 i have spent no more than £550 on it in total!!! and if i try i will get 55mpg so mine must be one of the cheapest

Heating doesnt work (doesnt get warm tempature gauge works)
Fan speed only works on max setting
Condensation (sp) on the window gets the better of me sometimes
Used to stall randomly (fixed)
Back door handles stick randomly annoying..
Sure theres more o well got it for free cant grumble i suppose.

As GAYSW says it's a 360 mate. a mk2 GLS carb to be exact.
It's crap on juice and since I dropped it 2" and welded the diff it handles like sh!t a lot of the time but it's good fun.
I won't sing the praises of them like a lot of lads who run them, but they are underrated. I'm no massive fan - although it's grown on me a lot. It's just cheap RWD retro fun for me. IMO they can look pretty cool. I've a few plans yet, turbo time shortly.

^ LOL as if you drive a 35k mile Micra lol thats ace lol
Its a lot more refined than a nova, and as disgusting as it is to look at, ive become quite attached to it now!! lol
I'm a delivery driver for dominos and this is much more economical than a 2.0 nova
This is my daily at the moment however I dont know for how much longer as with it being fairly low (-60mm) its not the comfiest car for daily use as well as it looks. And tbh I could do with something a little bigger...... Possibly a nice standard mk4 astra if I can find a tidyish one ;)

I always imagined those old boxy micras could be modified to look really good..... they are retro looking with the big square lights/grille etc. Seen any modified?
Not really, google nissan march or micra st ;) Theres one guy on the micra sports club (lol) that was putting a 2.0 primera engine in his but that been about 3 years and its still not done!! lol

Ah ok. I can just imagine one with carbs screaming down a back road with retro wheels and cibies etc.
Yeah a few people have got good results with twin carbs on the 1200s but lets face it, they don't look all that mucho do they!?

Nothing like a Nova for driving pleasure though.

Its best features are the concealed front towing eye & the hazard warning lights.
Pmsl Craig! I too have purchased a dub for a daily! Dragon green too!
I'm sure it's technically a good car Craig, but is it not the dullest car you've ever owned? It says nothing to me, Golf GIT

Yes it is the dullest, however I want to like it. Its just since Ive owned it, she has broken down a lot, so its hard not to hate it tbh. Going well now tough, so anything that gets me to work without agrro is all good I suppose.
