I mean with a hot body like this who wouldn’t right? All the car review sites are driving themselves crazy over this revolutionary makeover even former F1 racer, Stefano Modena has jumped onto the bandwagon; We’ve pulled a few together to give you an insight into what others are saying about this bad boy…Don’t just take our word for it. Take a read for yourself.

Ex-F1 racer, Stefano Modena –

The new supermini’s agile handling and secure driving feel is due in part to its Bridgestone tyres, which have been developed with the help of the ex-F1 racer, Stefano Modena. Stefano Modena competed in more than 80 Formula One Grands Prix, and in 1989 famously stood on the Monaco podium with legends Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost. So what does a man who is comfortable at 300km/h drive after he has finished racing? Perhaps surprisingly, the answer is the all-new Nissan Micra. Stefano said: “Nissan has been very demanding of Bridgestone for this new Micra, which is a great thing because it means it had very clear goals for the dynamic performance of the car. We really worked very hard to fulfil its requirements, and I believe we have.”

WhatCar? –
