Mitsuoka Motors (光岡自動車?) is a small Japanese automobile company. It is noted for building unique cars with unconventional styling. some of which imitate British vehicles of the 1950s and 1960s. [1] It is primarily a coachbuilder. taking production cars. like the Nissan March. and replacing various aspects of the bodywork with its own custom designs. It has also produced a sports car. the Orochi. Mitsuoka Motors is also the principal distributor of retro-classic TD2000 roadster in Japan. Mitsuoka was recognised in 1996 as the 10th Japanese auto manufacturer to be registered in Japan since Honda in 1963. It bases its current cars on Nissans and Other Japanese car manufacturers. Mitsuoka Motor Has a sales outlet in England and is soon to launch the Mitsuoka Roadster (Himiko) in the UK which is based on the Mazda Roadster.

The Mitsuoka Viewt is a modification of the Nissan March/Micra sold by the Japanese carmaker Mitsuoka. intended to resemble the 1963 Jaguar Mark 2. The line was launched in January 1993. It. along with Mitsuoka's later Galue. encouraged larger Japanese manufacturers to produce retro-styled versions of their own cars such as the "Flying Pug" version of the Mitsubishi Pajero Junior.

The first Viewt. introduced in January 1993. was produced on the basis of the K11 March. The March's hatchback was replaced by a fixed rear window and rounded boot. and the front grille and headlamp assembly was replaced by one closely resembling that of the Jaguar Mark II. In standard form the interior was much the same as the March's. but leather seats and wood trim could be added at extra cost.

The Viewt shared its 1. 0- and 1. 3-litre engines with the March. It was originally available with manual or automatic transmissions; later more luxurious editions were automatic-only.

Changes to the March were usually echoed in the Viewt; for example. when the March received a new dashboard the Viewt had it too. with a new wood kit. After the March convertible was introduced in 1997. Mitsuoka developed a Viewt convertible which used the Jaguar-style front but had a unique built-out rear.
