Robin's reliant car... is a Nissan

Blues fan ... Robin Van Persie opts for a car in his rival team's colour
ARSENAL'S injury problems would rocket if ROBIN VAN PERSIE's new motor was in a club car-share scheme.
The Dutch striker posted a picture on Twitter of him giving a classic thumbs up pose for his retro 1991 Nissan Figaro.
It will stick out a mile in the Gunners' car park alongside the Ferraris and Aston Martins.
But at least the light blue motor, worth about £5,000, is his pride and joy - unlike the Del Boy-style yellow Reliant Robin Leeds players clubbed together to buy in 2001.
The three-wheeler had to be driven home by the player who performed worst in training over a week.
