The Appeal

The Nissan Figaro is one of the most endearing Japanese imports to have found a devoted following on British roads. Produced in a single limited run in 1991, these retro-inspired machines were so popular when Nissan first advertised them at home that they had to run a lottery to meet demand. That oh-so-kitschy styling, turbocharged engine, and drop-top roof have earned the Figaro a unique cult classic status.

This right-hand drive example has covered approximately 98,500 miles and comes with an advisory-free MOT valid until September 2027. Of course, the first thing we notice is the striking Pink livery, a far cry from the soft pastel tones the Figaro launched with. It's definitely an eyecatcher!
The convertible roof is said to operate smoothly, folding neatly and clipping into place with ease, and features a heated rear screen. Under the bonnet, the 988cc turbocharged engine is reported to pull well, with no smoke or rattles, mated to the automatic gearbox which we're told is shifting through the gears smoothly.
