Does anyone know the make of this car? 1950s style convertible. Green pink or cream.?

I%26#039;ve seen quite a few of them driving around. They come in mint green, pink and cream(as far as I know).


I%26#039;m pretty sure they are convertible- though not definite and look very similar to something from the 1950s.


I really need to know the make of this car!!|||Daihatsu Copen ?? 2 tone, some hard top, some convertible, they look very retro in their styling. about the length of the original Mini|||Cake you need to come up with a better description or some kind of pic. The only Pink, green, and cream was the mopar%26#039;s but in the 70%26#039;s


Pink panther Challenger/ cuda Lime green Challenger/ cuda Cream duster/scamp ( Yuk ) but the a-body didn%26#039;t have a covert opinion, 50%26#039;s have no idea|||It will be a Nissan Figaro which was a special edition based upon the Nissan Micra floor pan and running gear. Some people have said Nash Metropolitans (most people in UK, if they remember them, would call them Austin Metropolitans) but that is highly unlikely, most were two tone painted anyway and you would be lucky to see one a year nowadays. They were mainly built for export so even when they were a current model there were not too many on the roads in the UK.





Go onto ebay and under the cars and parts section type in Nissan Figaro - there are usually some on sale and the listings will have photo%26#039;s shown.|||Type in Nash Metropolitan and look it up in wikipedia and see if its the one you are looking for.In Britain it was made at Longbridge and had an Austin A40 engine and some unusual design features.--edit--i have worked on them.Another possibility is a VW Kharmann Ghia, there are many still around but the colour scheme you describe doesnt add up for that.|||So, some of you guys think that it%26#039;s a Nash Metropolitan?


Question says %26quot;I%26#039;ve seen quite a few of them driving around%26quot;


When did you last see quite a few Metroplitans driving around? apart from at a vintage car rally.





Hope the YA user lets us know which car it is!!|||What you are describing is a Nissan Figaro, the fourth colour available is light blue, its a limited edition car meant for the Japanese home market so all the cars in the Uk are second hand Japanese imports.|||I think it is called an Austin Nash Metropolitan
