I've got a fairly solid mini shell (chalkie) that I was going to do up, but change of plans means I'm on the look out for a 1.3 K11 micra, long shot but you never know! Doesn't have to have mot or tax, as long as it runs well and all electrics work, I can even add a little cash for the right car, what you got?

It's always the way lol I need a micra for its engine to drop in my mk1 metro, sick of plodding along at 55-60mph (max speed!) want something more modern and Eco to run, that can keep up with modern traffic, and a micra fits the bill perfectly.....

Yup, i got mine really cheap. It depends where you find them.. ebay is expensive, autotrader is expensive, local papers tend to be cheaper and so is the micra forum.

If you keep an eye out locally you might save a few hundred!

I don't think they are, ebay/autotrader overprice on almost everything now. Just wait for some old lady to sell hers for nothing :D
