The Micro Microlino is a delightful retro-styled city runabout that feels like a modern reinterpretation of a classic bubble car, perfect for threading through tight streets and turning heads at every junction. It’s unabashedly charming and ideal for urban life, but buyers should embrace the playful simplicity over family-hauler practicality.

Practical car with a fresh look and plenty of choices when it comes to equipment. For us it came down to a Ford and a Hyundai. In my experience the Ford Puma e felt a bit bumpier and the Inster is calmer, partly thanks to the long wheelbase. That the Ford doesn’t have a heat pump is a miss. The Inster’s coffee-break alert gets on your nerves almost immediately and apparently can’t be switched off. Hyundai blames EU rules, but there must be a solution? This misses the mark!
