Welcome to our February 2018 Newsletter! At this quiet time of year it's always a struggle to find interesting stories and thankfully
Steve Newbold and
Jim MacDougall came to the rescue. The story of
Leah really did bring a tear to my eye, what a wonderful touch by member
Julie Janes and not the first time a Figaro has been the catalyst for friendship. We all know the reputation for the Scots being careful with their money and having paid £2,000, it sounds like
Glaswegian Jim got himself a great deal. He tells us it was a bit of a risk importing a Figaro directly from Japan to Florida but thankfully, it paid off.
For those of you who love to add the very latest accessories to your Figaro, you may be interested in a product from a company called
Cabung. It inflates and seals the small gap, creating a barrier between the front seats and the centre console (which is really hard to access & clean) and hopefully stops you losing your small change and credit cards. When in place it matches the colour of the seats and you can even personalise with your car name or like we did with the words 'FIGARO'.
Over the past few months we've received a flurry of questions from new members and owners regarding what petrol should they use in their Figaro? With 91/95 and 98 Premium Unleaded Petrol available, it seems that everyone you ask has a different opinion on the subject. So we decided to seek 'expert advice' from the owner of The Figaro Shop
Toby Brooks. The article makes interesting reading and it's reassuring to know that having put 95 octane into our cars over the years we've not done any long term damage!
Lastly, we have updated the Events page on our website and are pleased to announce it now contains no less than 21 events to visit with your Figaro.
