THE MIGHTY STEED

After weeks of hunting the dark depths of the internet for the cheapest of cheap cars, after travelling many miles across country to measure up different options, and after uncovering some truly dodgy objects that really shouldn't be referred to as cars, WE FOUND THE ONE! A beautiful Nissan Micra S! This is one mighty steed, packing a mighty 998 cc engine producing 59 bhp. This monster will achieve 0-60 in 15.0 seconds, and go on to a top speed of 93 mph! At least, that's what I'm told... This car does however ooze experience; with well over 100,000 miles on the clock, she's been around the block more than a few times.
To add icing to an already pretty kickass cake, the car was donated to us for free by the completely fantastic folks at Auto Velocity UK! They wanted to help us as much as possible upon hearing about our plans for not only the rally, but to raise money for charity, and we couldn't be more grateful.
I guess all that's missing is a fitting name for this incredible machine. We'll begin to get acquainted with her, and find a suitable name to match her personality. Alternatively, if you have a truly incredible suggestion you can't keep to yourself, then please drop us a line!
As always, please check out our Virgin Money Giving page here and donate anything you can afford, as this really is a worthwile cause! Like a proud father, I'll leave you with a photo of our beautiful girl. Stay safe x
