Little troll with anger issues. I also have a k12 Micra albeit a 1.2 petrol, it handles like a wobbly bucket of wobbly stuff, and definitely can't keep up with an Impreza as the OP has previously claimed. Weight wise there probably isn't a huge amount between the golf and the Micra, as the dry weight of the Micra is, if I'm not mistaken 915+kg, i assume it's more for the diseasel. I understand that you like your car, i do not understand what your question was though.

To be fair, I had a Micra 160SR back in the day. It was a decent little warmish hatch, handled well and was generally fun to punt about.

However, it was in no way a TVR/Subarubishi/Bugatti etc beater and it certainly wasn't worthy of online masturbation.
look at the 0-60 time in the micra sr 10-2 my diesel now is sub 9 so your warm hatch sr is trumped by the 240 tourqe diesel. im not bigging it up im saying what you can do to it to make it fun, I have had loads of hot hatch there fun and the micra his up there with them , how do you no you havent drove it so WTF a simple post about how i made it cool to drive ,an you all go ape st with your saxo,s and your 100,000 miler tins of salmon
