1200cc at the moment...Would keep the engine stock for a while.

...Then fit a screamer of a 1400cc unit. Possibly twincharged.

That's pretty cute I reckon. The old dear had one and it worked tirelessly for years without so much as an oil change.
 
what happened to your current car? and to the possible plans you had - unless this is it?! or would this just be an addition?

you've really got me thinking about retro cars with all the cool ones you post... and im supposed to be savin money! arrgh!

not necessarily retro but i bought an old 205 xs as a run-around once i sold the 206 and its great fun. would love to upgrade to a gti and stick a nice big engine in there!

Might be because i come down here where there are 100s of 1000s of datsuns :o

I know. Lucky bugger.

There are less than 100 in the whole of the UK.

The Shuv...may be sold; dunno yet.

Insurance is less on the Datsun too.

Ever car i look at down here is atleat 2 or 3 times more expensive then over there :(

You can have my datsun filled country :p
 
Yes. Yes you should buy it. With the right wheels it would look fantastic. Stop tempting me to buy something like this :(
 
It wouldn't be my choice of car but that particular one looks impeccable condition, has it been restored or just in hiding for the last 1/4 century?
 
Ill convict you :p

Do you get these datsuns up there Penski?
This is the only one i would consider buying :cool:

No you shouldn't. You should do some work on the shuv and think about why you even thought of buying dirty jap rubbish:p. Seriously, I'd just keep the shuv I think.
