Manual Conversion Upgrade

Like a Figaro… But Faster!

Manual Conversion Upgrade

Have you ever wished your Nissan Figaro had a bit more punch? The original 3-speed automatic gearbox is charming, but let’s be honest, it does limit your Figaro’s full potential – especially when you’re on the open road or have to get on the motorway.

That’s why The Figaro Shop offers one of the most transformational upgrades you can make to your Nissan Figaro: the conversion to a 5-speed manual transmission.

Here is Christian Brooks, our Managing Director to tell you a little more.

Here’s what you’ll get:

Higher top speeds – Cruise comfortably at 75–85mph (vs. the standard 65- 70mph)
Better fuel economy – Thanks to more efficient gearing
More control – Whether you’re tackling hills or winding country lanes you can make sure your Figaro responds as it should
A more engaging drive – It feels sportier and gives you more control
Increased long-term reliability – Fewer issues than aging automatic boxes
Loved by owners – The polls are in and our clients say it’s a complete game changer

Unfortunately this upgrade is becoming harder to offer due to the difficulty sourcing the increasingly rare 5-speed gearbox from the Nissan Micra K10. However, we have some great news – we have just secured three, meaning three lucky Figaro owners will get the chance to transform their drive.

The cost of a manual swap at The Figaro Shop is £4495. This price includes parts, labour and VAT. It also includes your custom colour, hand stitched leather gearstick. The cost of the donor cars to extract the manual gearbox are now between £1500-£2000 unfortunately, but we promise you will not be disappointed with your Figaro’s new vavavroooooom! 

If this is of interest, please contact Christian at [email protected] to learn more or reserve your conversion slot.
