I've been involved with Nissan servicing and repairs since 1974 and I've never had a faulty cat on a Micra, nor changed a Lambda sensor.

The throttle bodies are easy fixed by soldering up dry joints inside.

I have a Y reg Micra that my son runs.

The later Micra/Clio has some potential serious problems though....I have one to service and mot tomorrow.

my mum had 3 micras they never gave any trouble whatsoever, and were economical in spite of being petrol. the reason i like the old ones is they are so brutally basic, its just you and the car, and very little else so driving them is more pure, thats if you drive them enthusiastically.
