I am not normally bothered about what I drive but I do like something a little different. I have had a new mini and an MX5 and after that a polo. Needing a vehicle we looked around but nothing took my fancy..until my husband said what about a Figaro. We saw one, drove one and I fell in love with them. After a long search and numerous 'expensive duds' we found a Topaz Mist one, the colour I preferred. I saw it, I drove it and I wanted it. The lady we bought it off was so lovely. She had bought it and drove it to her own wedding. It was due an MOT and my husband agreed a price on completion of the MOT.
They agreed to drive it too us, to say goodbye to it. The lady had called him 'Little Fig', which we still call him. On delivery the lady handed over the keys and busrt into tears, she couldn't stop. After a while she stopped crying and then when my husband said he had managed to get a new set of rear seats, she started again ! saying he is going to a lovely home. I use him every day, sun, rain and snow and he has never let me down. A few little things to sort out but I won't be without him. He get stares and comments all the time and washing/polishing him takes an age because people always stop and ask questions. He brings joy everytime we drive him out. Looks like we have a car for life now.

Great story and shows that owning (and parting) with a Figaro can be very emotional!
