At first glance, the Nissan Cube (above) doesn’t look like an ideal base car for tuning and modification. But while it’s new to the UK this month, this boxy city runabout and its predecessors have been on sale in Japan for a decade. The Cube has become a design icon – it’s like their version of the MINI – so there’s a host of body kits and engine performance upgrades available. Bosses at Nissan UK are jumping on the bandwagon with a personalisation range of body panel tattoos, but if you really want to stand out from crowd, import direct from Japan. I’m a fan of anything that’s a bit different and think the Cube looks great. It’s really practical, too, with a roomy interior and full-width side-hinged rear door. The downside is the driving experience, which is pretty sterile and uninvolving. It’s an AtoB-mobile in that respect, but it’s one with style!
