The Nissan Micra has a fantastic reputation for reliability, although it seems likely that this high regard was forged back in the nineties when the Micra was a very simple, almost inert piece of engineering.
It  has built a reputation over many years for affordability, reliability and ease of ownership, but rarely has this perennially popular supermini been accused of being stylish.
The Micra has received the full five-star safety rating from Euro NCAP, with an impressive 91% for adult occupant protection, second only to the 93% of the Honda Jazz in the supermini class.
