Seen this morning on the A1(M) in North Yorkshire - one Nissan Micra convertible (l/h drive) - covered in plastic sheeting over front body panels. I was surprised at seeing it on such a busy road in rush-hour - aren't they supposed to be releasing it at the end of the year?

They've given it the same treatment as the Peugeot 206, with a hardtop that looks like it slides into the boot.

Wouldn't want one persoannly, but I thought someone would be interested...

You're dead right - nobody's interested in another version of a nasty little car.

Now, if I'd seen a convertible Typhon hooning down the A1, it would be a tad different...

On the button as ever, Balmoral. A car for old ladies wanting a final fling.

I saw one of these today, all of a sudden, it all makes sense...
