1991 Nissan Figaro - Light Blue - 63,104km - Turbo Petrol, Automatic Convertible
Overview
The Nissan Figaro is a genuine piece of Japanese automotive nostalgia, a retro-styled convertible that captured 1980s design language and wrapped it in a charming, diminutive package. Produced for just one year (1991) in limited numbers, the Figaro has become a cult classic, particularly sought after by enthusiasts who appreciate its quirky proportions, pop-up headlights, and unabashed celebration of vintage aesthetics. This particular example is a right-hand drive model finished in the iconic light blue that defines the Figaro's character. With 63,104 kilometres on the odometer, this is a genuinely low-mileage example of a car that has largely remained a collector's piece rather than a daily driver. The turbo-charged 1.0-litre four-cylinder engine delivers modest but adequate performance, paired with a four-speed automatic transmission that suits the car's leisurely, cruising-focused character. For buyers seeking an affordable entry point into classic Japanese convertibles or a distinctive weekend cruiser with genuine period charm, the Figaro represents compelling value in an increasingly recognised segment.
Condition
The exterior presents well for a vehicle of this age and mileage. The light blue paint holds good gloss across the visible panels, with minor stone chipping evident on the bonnet leading edge, consistent with age and use. Panel gaps are even and the bodywork is straight with no obvious dents or creases. The convertible top shows light wear and patina appropriate to the vehicle's age; the mechanism operates and the hood stows cleanly. Chrome trim and brightwork display minor oxidation and light surface corrosion in places, typical of a 33-year-old vehicle. The white-wall tyres are original specification and present well, though the wheel trim rings show minor surface rust consistent with age. The interior is trimmed in cream and grey leather with cloth inserts, presenting a period-correct aesthetic. The seats show light wear to the bolsters and some minor creasing, but the overall interior condition is respectable for the mileage. The dashboard is intact with no obvious cracks, and the instrument cluster is clear and legible. The original owner's manual is present. The undercarriage shows minor corrosion on exposed components, which is expected for a vehicle of this vintage and storage history. All four doors open and close smoothly, and the windows operate without issue.
