The Figaro Shop display their Refurbishment Skills

March 9, 2012 - PRLog -- The Figaro Shop were delighted to refurbish a Figaro commissioned  by the wonderful American philanthropist, Caroline Heinz-Youness.

Caroline is a political campaigner, contributor and activist for human rights, and she is on the board of Directors for the World Childhood Foundation, the charity founded by Her Majesty Queen Silvia of Sweden, whose work is aimed at helping the most marginalised children in the world.

Caroline Heinz-Youness contacted The Figaro Shop about commissioning a very special pillar-box red Figaro. They started with a specially sourced import from Japan; a Figgy in high grade condition with less than 50,000 miles on the clock. Caroline chose a full re-spray inside and out and The Figaro Shop carried out all of the preparation and painting themselves, so they could be sure all the bodywork was sound and the paintwork was perfect.

Caroline chose the best Italian leather to cover her seats and worked closely with The Figaro Shop throughout the design – even choosing the perforated leather and colour of the thread on the steering wheel!

They were very pleased with the results of their labour, and still use her Figgy as a great demonstration of striking colour change with an immaculate finish. The fantastic pillar-box red is a dramatic look and suits its very bold and outstanding owner.

The Figaro Shop know Caroline was very pleased with their hard work and, to show her appreciation, she bought them an unexpected gift – a very welcome, warming, Nespresso coffee machine.

The Figaro Shop still service Caroline’s Figaro and it comes back in as immaculate condition as when it was first finished. They are not sure whether it’s Caroline or the Figaro Shop who are most proud of this beautiful, highly distinctive Figaro.
