just when I thought I was going to hear a Deep Purple song...im now very deflated. Im sure the anti-christ resides in the nissan board room....offset of course by the brilliancy of the R35GTR

How is it pronounced? Is it Day-see-ah, or Dak-i-ah, or something else?

They are some Ugly Ugly cars....

should make the bakkie second hand market hold price as people would prefer an old bakkie than this puss

fuk thats ugly

Why such negativity? I hear the Dacia Logan (the one in the main photo) is quite popular in Iran.

maybe to make car boombs out of

ahahahahahaha god thats funny
Im hearing a lot of negativity and i rekon thats just because we are a bunch of datto freaks that are having the last remaining new 1200's stripped from production.

anyone interested in a group buy on one of those so we can smash the f&*k out of it?

has anyone tried finding a vid on youtube maybe we can see how it goes........ 0-60 in 20years!

If they can't make the new one outperform a 43 year old carb equiped 1400cc pushrod engine then new vehicle buyers will soon find their way to a competitors showroom to buy one that does, so of course it will perform 'acceptably well'
Business is business & the old Bakkie has been taking care of business for a very long time in the new-vehicle world.
A very long time indeed. Long may they be seen on the roads of the African continent.

that is what nissan want to sell whit name bakkie???

that is a renaut junk that cannot sell in europe.


ps:to the people in comand of nissan global or south africa:

And If I'm not mistaken Renault are the parent company of Nissan?

We have a Renault Kangoo as our work car and it is the biggest heap of ####, its only two years old and has been had the computer and fly by wire accelerator sh*t it in about 5 times. Goes like crap, feels like crap, the air con is crap.... basically a heap of CRAP. I think that everyone should hope and prey that Nissan do there own thing.

Quote:You are mistaken. Nissan Motor Co. Ltd, is the parent company of Nissan vehcles. They are partners with Renault. Officially it is termed an "Alliance" which apparently means that even though Renault does not have a controlling interest of Nissan stock, Nissan is willing to let them appoint the CEO and do what it takes -- and it has worked out well financially. From bankruptcy to profit is where Nissan + Renault have gone.

Just think how much more profit they can make selling mass-produed Dacias instead of the one-off 1400 LDV design.

Thanks DD, I wasn't sure thats why there was a question mark at the end... I read something about it and couldn't find it to clarify what I understood.

In the end just so long as I have my ute in the garage, I'm able to maintain it, afford the fuel and Nissan keep making awesome cars... I'm happy.

looks like a ford bantam!

Look at the offset of the wheels. Berts right, that's front drive & for a lot of reasons it makes sense to do it this way.

From an enthusiasts point of view, ... it sucks.

At least there is some roof for some fully sick Subbies behind the seats....

Doesnt Nissan want sales? I mean - who in there right mind would buy a piece of crap like that?

people buy the proton shi*tbucks...

love the number plate realy sets the car off hahahahaha

I predict they'll be very popular with housewives and secretaries -- more popular than the 1400 bakkie.

But I cannot envision them moving 20 young men, a grove of trees, or large sheds -- as we've seen photos of 1400s doing.
