Thanks Rob :thumbsup:

I get a thumbs up every time I go out in it, people hanging back then overtaking with their phones out, back seat passengers turning around and then saying 'Datsun' :D

I had a guy on a motorbike the other day catch me up at a roundabout, knock on my window and give me :thumbsup: :thumbsup: lol I don't think people my age have seen one for years and the younger generation have never seen one, even my 18yr old takes pics and sends them to his friends, he's normally to cool for school :D

Looking good Darren. Thought it had had a repsray, or are you after a colour change?

Can't believe this car is a year older than me :oops:

Which of you is in the better Nick Steve! :D

It had a full restoration in 2011/12 Steve but the paint looks 'fizzy' in places, it's not been painted up to UK restoration standards, I'm keeping it Orange, also they didn't paint the engine bay even though they removed and rebuilt the engine, I've cleaned it up pretty well but if I'm having the outside done again then it would be a shame not to do the engine bay to the same standard :thumbsup:

Russ you can have a nip out in it anytime :driving:

Thanks for the kind words guys, Russ and John have both seen it and we're very complementary, much appreciated :thumbsup:

Steve I hope we get to meet up at some point and you can have a blast too, be prepared to go back in time because the 240's six cylinder in very different to the ///M's :D :driving:

Thanks Lee I will, think I'll go for a Japenese Tune up later! :D :driving: it likes to be revved although there's not as much 'whoosh' as I remember from 30 years ago, 150BHP was quite good then :D
