Nissan Figaro Cars

Nissan Figaro Cars are our speciality here at Derek Champion Figaros.

We have been importing the Nissan Figaro since 1994, and have been featured on Topgear and in the Tatler magazine, The Times, The Evening Standard and many more.

We have a large selection of Nissan Figaro cars in stock, and all of our cars come with a full service including a cambelt change. The Nissan Figaro cars come with 4 brand new tyres, a professionally re-connerlised interior, a brand new roof, the original Figaro Retro stereo, 1 years MOT and 6 months tax.

All Nissan Figaro cars are also professionally valeted. We can also supply after sales backup from our fully equipped workshop, and parts new and used from off the shelf.

We are situated just 10 minutes from Gatwick Airport. If it's easier for you to come by train, we can collect you from either Gatwick or Horley train station. We look forward to seeing you - no one ever regretted buying quality!

The Nissan Figaro cars were produced in Japan in 1991 and is arguably the most intriguing design in recent times. Designed by Shoji Takahashi the Nissan Figaro is already a sought after classic in Europe and Japan. Shoji Takahashi actually won many design awards and critical acclaim for this and the theory behind the design was based around the brand of Swatch watches that were very popular at the time. The theory was that different casings can be put around identical mechanics to create a very different design and the Nissan Figaro is actually based around the mechanics of a Nissan Micra.

Only 20,000 Nissan Figaros were ever made and due to such large demand in Japan the cars had to be allocated by a raffle!

Many of these cars have now made there way to the UK and as the Japanese also drive on the left-side of the road as in the UK, it also means these cars are right-hand drive.

Today, the Nissan Figaro has a cult following which will ensure the depreciation is always minimal and due to the small amount of cars made may even appreciate in value in the not so distant future.

Although the Nissan Figaro looks like a retro Italian 1950's sports coupe, as it was actually built in the 1990's it means the Nissan Figaro comes equipped with all the standard extras we have become used to in todays driving.

The modern conveniences like Automatic Gearbox, Air Conditioning, Radio/Cassette/CD Player (also made in Retro fashion), Colour Coded piped leather upholstery, Power Steering and Electric Windows, are all build around standard Nissan Micra running gear.

Never before has a classic car look been fused with modern day driving with such attention to detail.
