🪦 Fate:

Sold, since banger raced and scrapped

1987 Nissan Micra 1.0 Camper Van (2005-2008)

The head-turner, for the all the right reasons.

This was one of my most ridiculous impulse buys to this day. I spotted it on eBay while on holiday in America and had to bid.

Amazingly, I got it for £350, so as soon as I got back to the UK I was off to Portsmouth to collect it.

This is one of the few cars I've owned that's actually made it to JAE and it turned as many heads as the March Superturbo parked next to it!

I still regret selling it to this day, but it was left at my parents to rust and eventually banger-raced. What a sad end to such a unique Micra.

Modifications:

  • Rear doors replaced with steel sheets for privacy
  • Passenger and rear seats removed
  • Bed installed in place
  • Water tank with electric pump, draining into waste tank
  • Gas hob with gas tank
  • 230v hookup
  • Extended rear tailgate
  • Raisable roof

...all in a 1.0 automatic Micra shell.

Top speed: 55mph
