car i'd never seen before what is it??
right, strange but damn cool looking little car. looked really 'different' sort of nissan figaro, but modern.. stretched, lower, sporty looking (in a pretend way), looked like a 2 seater and did look really small on the road, sort of bubble like, it was bright yellow, i was much to far away to see any badges but have never seen one before would reallly like to know what is was. Not the best description i know but anyone any ideas.

not a cappachino or honda beat same sort of size, maybe a bit longer, it had a hard top, i couldn't tell if it was removable as it was to far away. Looked brand new, much more rounded than either a beat or cappachino, but they are the closest to it i know of, was also something figaro about it... strange.

Absolute hoot to drive. Missus nearly bought one and then her practical side kicked in.
None the less, excellent town car, excellent cruise about on a summers day car, bloody useless shopping car though.

Yay! I win I win!
I sat in one of them while in Japan, and found that if I sat upright I could see over the windscreen. That was with the roof off, obviously. Can't imagine while some of the Japanese people were staring and pointing at me. I had a similar problem with the Suzuki Cappuchino, except that was in Scotland...
The Copen looks a bit like a mini Audi TT cab. A bit. Perfect for really short hairdressers.
