Cool Car

Post by Mike »

Yo! I have been seeing a car around my work quite a bit just recently and have today discovered that it is a Nissan Figaro. I would really like one of these cars as they are ace! You can actually pick a used one up for about £6k too which is pretty impressive. :D

Whoa, wasn't expecting that! It's way retro given the year it was made, but the Japanese seem to be big on other cultures in that way (sometimes).

They are cool, there's one that lives near me that I see on a regular occurrence. No idea how big the engine size is though...doesn't look overly nippy!

I used to drive a 995cc mini so am not particularly bothered about the engine size. Would love to drive one of those but I don't think I can afford them - we don't need two cars either so that is out of the window.

The Guardian have an article about classic cars (owned by famous people) that are being auctioned off at the end of this month. There are some beautiful car designs in the list and this is my favourite.
