Is it unfair to describe the Micra’s looks as “gormless”?

No. I've not looked into pricing compared to the R5 but I've no idea why anyone would pick the Micra over a 5 unless it was considerably cheaper. Inside & out, it's just not as nice.

It has a bit of the sex-less Baymaxes about it.

Dead-eyed. No wit, fun or humour in this car.

The origin story could feature gramp’s ill-fainted journey to America in the 70s where they forced a name change on him.

Can the original Renault 5 play its father and the character is basically the French Version of Martin Craine From Fraiser?

Ooh, difficult one, as I’d have the Renault down as the urbane sophisticate and the Nissan down as the cranky old guy! 😂

The new Nissan Micra, yesterday

The 5 is Pinky
The Micra is Brain

Mike-Ra, the latter syllable to be emphasised like Mumm-Ra.
Or something.

This Micra lacks the charisma to be an evil twin. It’s the H&S, risk averse, safe job in finance, twin to the R5’s extreme sports instructor twin.
Amazing how two car so similar can be so different in desirability.

I mean, if that’s not K10 Micra design language, then I don’t know what is…?
(Sarcasm, that’s clearly Renault 5 Turbo 2 derived, and they’re fooling no-one)
