Helpers
This is not a definitive list by far, but along the way, we have had help, support, guidance and purchased parts from (UK):
The Figaro Shop not only stock their own restored Figaros, they offer parts (new and refurbshed), their website has 'How to' guides and they can give advice amongst other services. We have found them to be a little expensive but we have bought a great many parts from them for ease and their excellent service.
We've ordered bits and bobs from here. They do just parts - refurbished and original.
This company have teamed up with The Figaro Owners club to offer a Figaro specific leather kit. I ordered it, used it and although the interior is a lot better, and the online reviews are great, it was obviously user error as I haven't done a great job and I followed the instructions carefully. It was more difficult than it sounded.
This isn't one we've had any parts from but have used for checking things out and research.
The obvious - but be careful about scammers, there are a lot out there.
Absolutely invaluable place to go for advice, support, videos and discount codes. You pay a fee to become a member and then you get newsletters, invitations to Figaro get togethers, a website of all sorts of Figaro topics. Without the fee you can still access a wealth of information. Well worth a visit.
Loads of YouTube videos out there with varying levels of useful advice. Kevin from
The Figaro Owners Club can be found there and his help videos are great.
Lots of Figaro groups on Facebook but the one to look out for, in my opinion is Figaro Smiles run by Adam Woods. He's amazing at answering any questions you may have. He goes that extra mile to help out.
Please be aware that these links are only for what we've used ourselves.
