Today, a third - and possibly the best known - of Nissan’s late eighties/early nineties quirky small ‘Pike’ cars, the Figaro. Like yesterday’s Pao, it draws on a variety of retro influences rather than being a reinterpretation of a single specific earlier model. The Pike cars weren’t officially sold in the UK but a lot of them, especially the Figaro, made it here anyway. Model Figaro snapped at Nissan’s Tokyo HQ by my brother earlier this year (1/2)
