The new all-electric Nissan Micra is coming, and although the straight-edged silhouette gives away its Renault 5 underpinnings, the cute round headlights are a throwback to those on the K12 Micra.
So, what better time for Nissan GB to restore its brilliantly bonkers K12-based Micra 350SR. Oh, and it’s also this particular Sunderland-built K12’s 23rd birthday this year – an important anniversary for Nissan given the Japanese pronunciation of the numbers two (ni) and three (san). Yep, that’s also why so many Nissan factory racecars use the number 23.
