Fridae Auto Club looks at the best of mainstream offerings that are knocking on the doors of the premium car makers. Read more *here.*

Other successful large mainstream cars
Vauxhall Insignia Winning European Car of the year is one of the highlights for bleeding GM for 2008. High on style and positive reviews on driving and build quality. Nissan Altima Smooth as silk 3.5 V6 engine with sporty exterior styling. Big seller for Nissan in America for its space, style and performance.	Skoda Superb Replacement for Singapore's favourite cab comes with an innovative boot arrangement. Doubles as a sedan or a hatchback. Seat Exeo A Spanish version of the previous generation Audi A4. High quality cabin and decent driving dynamics is assured. Could be a winner in Eastern Europe.
Nissan: Build this again! This is the 1991 Nissans Figaro where a limited run of 20,000 units were being sold. With a turbocharged 1.0 4 cylinder engine and a 3-speed automatic gearbox, this is clearly not a car for the impatient.Only 8,000 were originally available with an additional 12,000 added to production numbers to meet demand. Prospective purchasers had to enter a lottery to be able to buy one of these cars. Limited edition cars came with passenger side baskets and cup holders. 4 colour choices were avaliable, each representing a season of the year. Want one for the casual drive to Sunday brunch?
