Very nice, I reckon these 3 door ones have a lot of potential for looking very cool and I've never seen anyone give one any treatment before. Getting quite scarce now too.

Well bought! That looks a stonkingly good example, very clean. Should be the 12 valve engine in that as well, shouldn't it?

 

FathaW201 had a new one back in 1989, (F610 VPY, was still knocking about until about a year ago). Back then, a base model car in that sector having electric windows, and a radio cassette was a massive novelty!

 

Always fancied one of these 3 door ones, could imagine one looking decent with a slight drop and a set of suitable alloys.

Magic. A mate had one of those in 4 door form from 1989 to 2007. Great old thing.

[ProgRocker]

That looks very nice indeed.

 

Are those Micra K10 wheels?

I done my apprenticeship on these!

The air filter looks a bit like a lampshade and they make great frisbees! Or if you are an idiot like my colleagues and I were, you can soak it in brake cleaner, light it then throw it. Adds a bit of excitement to the otherwise quiet and mundane workshop of your local early 90s Nissan dealer.

 

Wheels are original N13 items. Similar to the K10 ones but slightly different wheeltrim and deeper stamped out spokes.

Excellent! I saw this on the Datman forum and thought it looked like a right bargain, seems really tidy. Great buy.

[Parky]

Like that a lot! Reminds me of our school car park circa 1991. I bet it's probably still quiet and smooth to drive isn't it?

[pandamonium]

It is absolutely lovely to drive, a bit too nice for me really!

[Lord Sterling]

Thats brilliant! I'm quite drawn to the wheels if I'm honest, they really suit the car.

 

There is still a few of these Sunny's knocking about Birmingham, but most arent nearly as clean as yours.

Big city Birmingham, with a lot of people. You need a slightly bigger Nissan to fit in a higher volume of takeaway deliveries on any given round.

That really is nice, if I'd been in the market for a cheap daily, I'd have snapped his hand off as soon as I saw it!!

 

Also being a 1.4 you won't have the OMGHGF issues of the E-series cars.

Thanks. I remember now - the steelies on these typically had black centre caps rather than silver ones.

[Cavcraft]

All you need to do now is find an extra from Waterloo Road and sell them the number plate.

That's lovely. I've always liked the N13 Sunny for some reason. Why, I even remember the slogan that Nissan UK used to promote it when it was first launched: "Puts Other Cars In The Shade!"

[Volksy]

I like this.

 

Please tell me it won't end up on the floor with black wheels anytime soon?
