Museum piece
Yes, we got hold of another one: a car that spent its life with ‘an old lady’. Already 32 years old, but still like new. At least, it almost seems that way. Of course there is also a special price.
Can you remember the last time you saw a first generation Nissan Micra? There is a good chance that you will have to dig into your memory, because the number of survivors has thinned out considerably in recent years. There seem to be roughly 400 left in our country. One of them has lived through its existence very quietly, namely this red one from 1991. A rather ‘late’ Micra K10, which looks much better than many later built Micra.
The first Micra was not the flashiest and was therefore often driven by people of age. That must have been the case with this one. The counter is only just under 47,000 km and a NAP report shows how the mileage has crept up over the years. We also immediately see a somewhat lesser side of the car: after 2017, the Micra stood still for years. Only sometime in the past few months, about 50 km has been added, but of course that should not have a name. The Micra remained with its first (!) Owner until 2017 and has since only been in the hands of car companies. They have probably driven roughly 50 km recently, on their way to the current provider.
Virtually spotless
The Micra is now shining in Haaksbergen. And does it shine! Of course not everything can be said on the basis of photos, but we still get the strong impression that this is an exceptionally beautiful specimen. According to the – somewhat garish – advertisement text, the Micra has always been parked inside with its owner and the 32-year-old red Japanese also radiates that. Nice detail is that the original dealer sticker is still on it, just below the roof spoiler. That roof spoiler is one of the nice extras on this swing-out version. The partly painted bumpers and the mud flaps also give it a bit more ‘face’.
Furthermore, it remains of course quite basic transport and it was already that at the time. Anyway, certainly this one probably left the showroom with an attractive price tag. Probably for only about double what the car has yet to deliver. He now has an asking price of just under €4,000. A firm but in itself understandable asking price. As the provider says; it’s almost a shame to drive it. Who will take care of this museum piece?
