Here you go freshandminty how about a black one to go with the white.  ? I've just found this on offer on one of the other forums I'm on. I don't want to break any forum rules advertising all the details as it's not mine & have no affiliation to it or the owner. Also don't want to hijack your thread to much. Just thinking if it has something on it that catches your eye I have the details.   |

That interior is great. I love the extra colour. It reminds me a little of the way the body colour wraps around the inside of the FIAT Coupe. And that interior was designed by Pininfarina, so you're in very good company.  |

Cheers Duncan, it reminds of the fiat 500 and of course lots of classics that had painted dashboards like beetles etc. It's a look that I tend to go for on all my cars in some way. I'm a big fan of pininfarina's work |

I promise I'm not a Grip Royal rep, but you need one of their steering wheels!  |

I saw one in that colour on a modivied civic a couple of years ago and believe me i know i need one too. only trouble is i want to keep my airbag so really i need to find a company that would fit one of the outer rings of the wheel to an existing airbag frame / support. |

I've been looking at these for years but don't think I would use it for its purpose. Maybe one day |

fr€$h&m1nt¥ - I know someone who could easily customise it to your needs if you managed to get a steering wheel, he is also in the West Midlands. Let me know.

This thing rules so hard.
You and I, we're on the same wavelength.

Just read this entire thing and on page 1 I was a hatch/wagon kind of guy and now I really wish I could ensure one of these or the older 90s vans. So cool and love the ideas you went with. Looks fresh but not OTT. Love it.

What are these like in terms of reliability and part availability?
I've been looking at these for a while, but not keen on modern Nissan's since Renault had a hand in them.

Running gear / brakes etc are shared with uk cars like 350z / murano / qashqai so no danger there. Only issues I'm aware of have had recalls and these are honoured worldwide by Nissan Japan. Smaller body parts can be shipped over by import agents and larger panels you have to go down the route of panel repairs or the occasional breaker. So nothing to worry about really. * touches wood * |
