A Nissan dealership in Wiltshire is in the final stages of planning an exclusive event to celebrate its long-standing relationship with The Figaro Shop.
The event will take place at Fish Bros. Nissan in Fenn Close, Peatmoor, Swindon, from March 22-24. It will feature the unveiling of a new product line from The Figaro Shop called Restored & Remastered, as well as a number of other fascinating cars.
The Figaro Shop is the world’s leading specialist garage dealing only in parts, services and restorations of the iconic 1991 Nissan Figaro.
The Nissan Figaro was run as a Limited Edition release with only around 20,000 produced. Although intended mainly for the Japanese market, many have been imported into the UK over the years and others have found their way to countries such as New Zealand and America.
The Figaro Shop, in Didcot, Oxfordshire, offers a wide range of services to Figaro owners all around the globe, and creates bespoke examples of the car. Each new version is built on a base car from the original production run with the client able to select their paint colour, upholstery and accessories.
The company’s relationship with Fish Bros. stretches back to 2013, with the Nissan dealership supplying parts and accessories to be sold and exported to Figaro owners at home and abroad.
As well as the unveiling of a stunning Hermes orange Figaro destined for a customer in Miami, the upcoming Fish Bros. Nissan event will feature an example of a classic 1974 240Z sports car and the one-of-a-kind Nissan RE-LEAF natural disaster relief vehicle.
The eye-catching 240Z was the car that helped Nissan, formerly Datsun, achieve sales success in the US, while the RE-LEAF EV is fascinating because of the way it can provide a mobile power supply after a natural disaster or extreme weather event.
All the great cars in the current Nissan line-up – such as the Juke, Qashqai and all-electric ARIYA – will also be on display at Fish Bros.’ Peatmoor showroom. Complimentary refreshments will be served and a number of special guests will be dropping in.
Close relationship
Callum Miller, Group Marketing Mananger at Fish Bros., said: ‘‘We are all looking forward enormously to the weekend of March 22-24 and we hope as many people as possible will join us.
‘‘We really do value the close relationship we have with The Figaro Shop and it will be wonderful to have one of their newly-created cars with us in the showroom.’’
