Catfish's March Cabriolet
Discussion
Hi all, newb here! Glad to be here, I think the cars owned by the forumites on this website are just fantastic, and I'm ashamed to say mine doesn't quite meet the standards! I am looking to get an MX5 next after my dalliance into Japanese imports!
Lowered 35mm, uprated Bilstein dampers, lower strut brace, 75bhp of throbbing POWAH!!
Just a couple of pics:

It's not bad - Nissan gave it a bit of a think-through admittedly!
The roof sort of folds on top of the boot space on a metal shelf which steals quite a lot of boot space. There is a lot of roof to fold though! The boot lid opens upwards.

Thanks for the kind comments! Apart from you David!
mrdelmonte - It is quite a bit heavier than the standard car - 1140kgs, so it's obviously no sports car! All the gubbins included adds to it too. It's really just designed for sedate acceleration and crusing! It's a manual though luckily, so I'm not stuck waiting for it to accelerate then change gear!
But for a Cabriolet conversion, I agree, there are worse ones out there!

Not much stays with a CVT Micra below 40! The continuously variable auto really is very nippy since it keeps the engine in the POWAH!! band at all times.
Sounds a bit odd and LOUD though...
