Nissan mm

This car is the 5 door version of the 3 door car that premiered at the Frankfurt show last month, and is the precursor to the replacement for the eight year old Micra. The MM has a more substantial appearance than the Micra due to its wider track, shorter overhangs, 15 inch wheels, prominant full length shoulders and greater tumblehome.

The corporate Nissan 'flying wing grille' runs full width below the head lights to also give a stronger and more confident look, as well as encorporating the indicators. But the concept maintains the current car’s soft and cuddly aesthetic, which suggest that the production version due next year will be bucking the trend in Europe for this size of car becoming more mature and serious.

Mazda Secret Hideout

Designed in Japan and designed for the youth of today who wants to have a personal environment in which to travel or relax. The future retro aesthetic borrows cues with cars of the past to enable Secret Hideout to offer a different design solution that eschews overtly architectural and functionalist design.

Mini Cooper S

The MINI Cooper S uses state-of-the-art supercharger and intercooler technology to extract 163 bhp at 6,000 rpm to make the MINI Cooper S the most powerful car in its class.

An eye-catching air intake scoop on the hood, re-designed bumpers, centrally mounted twin tailpipes, wider wheel arches and black side-sills signal the car’s power and agility. A roof spoiler increases down force and directional stability.

A n exposed chrome-plated fuel cap, chrome-plated side grilles and chrome “MINI Cooper S” door sill strips are complemented by the brushed aluminium look of the interior facia. The crossbars in the radiator grille and boot grab handle come in body colour, whilst the roof and exterior mirrors are finished in white or black .

Japan has been one of the biggest markets for the old Mini, and looks to be the second largest market for the new car.
