Description
Meet Stella :-) a 1991 Nissan Figaro import from Japan, retro-styled, limited-edition coupe, produced by Nissan as a "Pike car". It's known for its classic, European-inspired design, featuring round headlamps, chrome accents, and a retractable fabric top. It was based on the Micra platform and has a turbocharged engine just under 1.0-liter. 1950s and 60s feel. Only 20,000 Figaros were produced, making them relatively rare and sought after, unfortunately a lot of these are getting broken down for parts due to not getting the TLC that they deserve.
The Figaro is a 2-door coupe with a fixed roof, but the top can be retracted.
Excellent condition overall, inside and out.
Leather interior. Features like air conditioning and a retro-style CD player (CD player still in very good working condition, mostly using the CD part of it but has radio and cassette player).
The car comes with a three-speed automatic transmission.
The Figaro's design concept was "Tokyo Nouvelle Vague," aiming to blend vintage and modern styles.
I have been its proud owner since June 2019 and have only added a few thousand miles since then, current odometer reading shows 113612 kilometers which is just over 70,500 miles , last MOT passed on the 15th of April.
The inside leather is in excellent condition throughout , front and back seats. Leather was freshened up by the Leatherlab company in Bangor around end of August 2022.
The engine has been regularly checked by our local mechanic, I have kept some of the receipts of what was repaired since acquiring the vehicle ( no major repairs have been needed) . Engine runs very well and starts on first go. Usually driven at around 60 miles /hour max but can easily be pushed faster as I have reached the 70 miles/hour mark on a couple of occasions but not often as I would like to keep its good condition.
Front / back bumpers recently upgraded to stainless steel to last longer.
New fan belt, new battery.
Back arches recently done as well as full wax oil undercoat August 2025.
Over all a very quirky/ eye catching vehicle, gets attention every time its out and has been a pleasure to drive on many occasions to many scenic places here in Northern Ireland:-) Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, , I am located in county Down.
