AARRGGHH! They've made the Micra WORSE!

I thought it was impossible, but Nissan can make your new Micra look even worse!

The cute, cuddly little Nissan Micra might not be the obvious model to dress up with body kits and aggressive accessories, but Nissan has developed a sporty body kit in keeping with its character. The kit, developed by Nissan's new London design studio, comprises side skirts, front and rear lower lip spoilers, wheel arch extensions, and 'eyebrow' headlamp surrounds, which give it a rather coy expression. The kit costs £795, including VAT and fitment, and an extra black rear spoiler, attached to the top of the tailgate, can also be added.

Not a pretty site.

I always chnage the channel or the sound off when it's advert is on tele - I can't stand adverts where the person talking whispers.

Oh, it was disturbing you, too? We have same advert here, localised with a finnish female voice.

Hobson · 3 Jul 2003, 12:58 (Ref:650861)

'Modro'
'Simpology'
'Spafe'

Basically, thery're saying "buy this car, we're bonkers"

I've said it before and I'll say it again.

Crollocks.

Ugly, Repulsive.

Bluebottle · 3 Jul 2003, 18:40 (Ref:651188)

....And another thing, how can something so relatively huge be called Micra? The old one was small at least!!

**garcon** · 3 Jul 2003, 18:49 (Ref:651201)

BMW's fault.

It's all BMW's fault.

Nasty -

sunflower · 3 Jul 2003, 19:29 (Ref:651242)

another car that's going to be wrecked later this year looks wise is the corsa - it's front end will look like a tiny omega

the corsa advert where they were playing hide & seek was a clever & funny ad I thought (little off the subject of mircra's I know)

Maisie · 3 Jul 2003, 20:44 (Ref:651295)

I like that advert, and I still want my very own plastic Honda Civic playset!

I guess so since it looks like a Mini Cooper was breeding with an Echo or Neon or something.

gttouring · 4 Jul 2003, 04:26 (Ref:651631)

BMW-isn't onvolved with nissan- I thought Renault was...

**garcon** · 4 Jul 2003, 08:19 (Ref:651758)

And I thought, 'well, BMW started it all by launching the new "Mini" that's actually the size of a small house...'

So it's BMW's fault. QED.

Sim_Da_BTCC_Man · 4 Jul 2003, 16:04 (Ref:652444)

Does anyone think this car looks like John Prescott?

Sim_Da_BTCC_Man · 4 Jul 2003, 16:18 (Ref:652453)

told you so

Bluebottle · 4 Jul 2003, 19:49 (Ref:652691)

That actually makes the car look better

StuiE · 6 Jul 2003, 14:01 (Ref:653884)

It takes the styling of the new (ugly) V35 Skyline.....and makes the Skyline look good, there is seriously something wrong with car designers today, whoever designed that thing should be shot, along with Chris Bangle and the guy that did all the recent ugly Renaults.

...and I still think Prescott looks better

StuiE · 6 Jul 2003, 14:07 (Ref:653893)

hang on.....I just saw again, thats just the bodykit thats new, I thought it was a new model Micra for you guys, does it look much better without it?

woodyracing · 7 Jul 2003, 11:12 (Ref:654656)

its a Freak! and I am Anti Micra.

lauz · 7 Jul 2003, 19:46 (Ref:655153)

i think that the micra looks so stupid, its horrible.

Carrie · 7 Jul 2003, 20:32 (Ref:655197)

Urgh, yuck, I had the misfortune of following one of the ugly Micras onto the motorway today. It was red, however, it was one shade for the body coloured bumper, one shade for the boot and another entirely for the sides. Hmmm, this was supposed to be a brand new car, surely you cn't say the colour is fading already. It looked terrible, well, even more terrible than a Micra usually manages to look.

Lorretta · 1 Aug 2003, 15:09 (Ref:677279)

It's fugly !!!!!!!!!

KC · 1 Aug 2003, 20:41 (Ref:677475)

Ahhh. Its so cute! Just wait, plenty of people will say it. it looks like someone grafted a new beetle front clip on it.
