I Rode in the Bonkers Mid-Engined Nissan Micra 350SR!
Think the Nissan Micra is a sensible little supermini for your nan? Think again. Because this one… this one is utterly mad. I’m talking about the Nissan Micra 350SR – a rare, rear-wheel drive, mid-engined Micra, powered by a V6 and tuned up with 350Z bits to produce a whopping 300bhp. I remember when it was first unleashed 23 years ago as a mad marketing exercise by Nissan. Never thought that one day I would have a go in it – well, a passenger ride to be precise – at Millbrook Proving Ground during the 2025 SMMT Test Day. And yes, it was just as unhinged as it sounds.
