I was watching Continuum today and I was completely bewildered by this car. What is it?

 

I think it's called the Figaro or something like that.

 

Its a Nissan Figaro,
they only made 2o,ooo of them and all in 1991,1L turbo engine 3 speed auto air con,

 

Wow! It neither looks like it is a Nissan or from the 90's. I didn't even...

 

I like it! I looked up a few pictures! It's not something I would buy.. but it looks like it could be fun!

 

Looks like Columbo's car!

 

And the crazy thing is that 1999 to 2003 XKRs are selling for less right now on Autotrader UK!

 

Nissan Figaro! I've always dreamt of owning one, somehow sneaking it into the country.

I did get to see one in person in London, and they are too cool for words.

 

I do have one here in the uk,
got my wife it for her birthday.

 

Daihatsu do a similar thing called the Cappucino.

Out on the road running up to the North Circular from Whipps X Hospital in London there is a dealer that specialises in them. Seem to attract females of a certain age mainly, or men secure in their sexuality

I like them.

 

I thought the Cappuccino was a Suzuki only sold in Japan?

I actually like those cars, but I'd be damn scared to be in a crash in them. Kei cars are too tiny to feel safe. I always gravitate away from superminis for the same reason even though I know that some perform very well in crash tests.

 

I always like the similar retro themed Nissan Pao. Cool practicality.
