SupraAyf Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 A mate of mine has got one, my experience is based on driving it from Newcastle to London: I've got one (hubby has the supe). Found mine to be nippy, reliable and so much fun. They are all turbos, 3 speed auto. We had a stand at JAE last year. Not just for women, quite a few blokes belong to the forum. the place i got my supe from in southend has tons of these. he recently had a 'not so ghey' looking one which was dark red with little 13" alloys! Cheers guys and girls: The info is much appreciated indeed There are hundreds in southend and the surounding area! Its like something from the YMCA Ayf..........if you buy one, please take a picture of you driving it Will do mate but i think my wife won't let me near it TBH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurgen-Jm-Imports Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Jurgen, why do they hold their value so well as they all seem to float around the £6 to £8K mark for a low mileage H or J-reg? Cheers mate;) just rare we sold all our for 5k on road paid up front but if youn want under 25,000 miles then they are 7k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Yeah driven a few of these (paper bag over head) naaah they're fun little girly cars I guess, 1.3 turbo which goes ok, we had a girl come in the other day to buy one, she came back a week later to say how much she loved the thing and she said she realised why so many women have them, we asked oh is it because it's like a fashion accessory, she said no its because they all vibrate so much!

SteamAhead Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 If you want a small, unique looking, fully loaded (leather, electric everything, soft top etc.. you really cant go wrong with a Figaro. My other half (fiagrojo) has had hers for a couple of years now and loves it to bits. A while ago she drove a new Ford Fiesta and really loathed it, she could not wait to get back in her car again. I've driven it many times (no gay jokes please ) and it really is a great little car. Nice and cheap on service, parts etc.. due to the Micra build underneath. One thing I will say is make sure you do your home work, like many cars, there are many bad examples. Hope this helps. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INTERESTING SITE FOR FIGARO'S Great site and very interesting - cheers:) Is it definitely a figaro she wants ? Have you considered the suzuki cappuccino they are quite similar small engine, convertible. Yep, it's the Figaro she likes Colin but its only for a 'short-run' car after all. I like them too TBH!
