    In this video I took my 1L turbocharged (turbo'd) Nissan micra k11 that tiktok built on a 2500 mile road trip around Europe. The main goals of this trip was to get to Monaco, park outside the casino and also drive on the famous Stelvio pass. Boris the micra didn't get through this journey without breaking down, running out of fuel and leaking oil as you will see, but did the car make it to the finish line?

    5:21 honestly, I think that 1 liter turbo Micra has the best sound of those three. I mean, a V8 is nice and all, but the deep roar of that inline engine is just awesome.

    My very first car was a Micra. No turbo, upgrading, or anything, just a plain old, small car. Still, I loved it with all my heart and I almost cried on this video. One of the bests cars I've ever sat in. Good job with the upgrades, the style, and the look.

Got some nice wheels powdercoated, and looking for some nice tyres. Next on the list are coilovers, lowering the suspension, brakesystem, do some paint repair. When all problems are fixed, i start with engine work and turbo. Some small spots have to be welded.

    your front bumper of boris does not channel air to the brakes, the mags dont allow air in and out of brakes. they have to be a different style 4 spoke, 5 spoke open plan. your back car seats can hold a fuel tank of two seats split two but connected like nissan gtr of mat amstrong tank, at the back seat. at 40 to 60 liters of fuel and connect with main tank. and put an clima or aircon. the front new bumper is 300 to 4000 pounds. just because there is air below the car does not mean it is channeled towards the brakes. mat amstrong has made a fuel tank custom made. ask him. more or less for all 7000 to 10000 pounds but a bulet!! good effort good luck. great effort.
