I'm comparing it to a Micra 160 SR.
    I got that from Parker's guide, it does seem iffy as they quote the same for 100bhp version!
    125bhp

    Horses mouth.

    125bhp 1.0 EcoBoost (6-sp man) Urban 44.8mpg, Extra Urb 67.3mpg, Combined 56.5mpg
    100bhp 1.0 EcoBoost (5-sp man) Urban 47.8mpg, Extra Urb 68.8mpg, Combined 58.8mpg

    Parker's claim 44mpg for both 3 and 5 door 1.6 SR Micra

    Sorry, did come across overly shouty, knew you'd have to have got it from somewhere.

    That Micra claim is not far off, got 50ish on the run back from the weekender at Anglesey. 165miles in 2hrs 35mins £18 in unleaded. Sad that I know the time, just that I filled up at the Shell garage on Anglesey and then filled up at the Shell garage in Worksop and needed the receipts. Would say it's around mid 30s now I'm driving it more locally.

    Will tell my Mother that she's driving it wrong.

    Sorry to dredge up my old thread but I definitely don't need the 8 Port was anymore so was going to put it up for sale, just wondered what sort of price they are worth?
    I'm sure someone on here will have a rough idea
    Thanks in advance

    PM cleanhands as he seemed to want it for experimenting,or an advert on here
    failing that idea plop it on the bay highlighting its JDM like real japan stuff!!
    and add the 'D' word for good measure so every fcuker finds it on a search
    if you have all the bits its got to be worth £50? at least (I know you dont have the ECU),
    but its a hard thing to price tbh my guess may be well off what it sells for
