Same reason as any other small-car variant?

To expand on that, she was saying "If you were going to get a 2 seater car, why would you get a Micra, wouldn't you want to base it on something which isn't crap in the first place" ... "I bet she went into the showroom looking to buy an ordinary Micra and got sold the expensive one"

Because some people don't know anything about cars and will buy something because no one else seems to have it.
Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

And there's also somekind of GTI version of that car. For reason completely unclear for me.

Although it is a hideous car to look at, and has been known to make children cry, the Micra is technically quite a decent little motor.
But that's the car equivalent of saying "she's got a lovely personality".
