The NIssan Figaro Shop

Best Gift Ever?

We wanted to write and tell you about a special project we have just finished.

This stunning pink vision was commissioned as a Birthday Gift by Oscar O’Connor for his wife Kate!

(Yes all husbands should feel outdone at this point ;))

Earlier this year Kate and Oscar came to see us, they already owned a Figaro but sadly it had not stood the test of time.

We took the original car in as a part exchange and hand built this custom one off for them.

As with all our bespoke builds, we completely dismantled the car for assessment and restoration. We started with a huge mechanical overhaul and renewed all the suspension, brakes, engine parts and steering components.

We are very thorough with this part of the restoration and our parts development process is driven by the desire to make our restorations better. Having a car that looks good but isn’t reliable is not what we want.

Following the mechanical overhaul the car was repainted and dressed in all new or restored chrome and trim.

Kate chose a great colour scheme with this soft pink paintwork and a contrasting pink leather. It really is an amazing combination, the car looks good enough to eat!

The velvety shades mean that the car feels luxurious and is just a nice place to sit.

Cars like this can be enjoyed, just by soaking up the design as well as being driven on a sunny day with the roof down.

Enjoy the pictures!

(To all husbands and partners; if you don’t have that one amazing gift yet. You know where to come now!)
