Thanks everybody... As you see, it is a very nice car. Does anyone have some kind of experience on this kind of Datsun model??

The second car at the end looks just like the Holden Gemini in Australia...what was it called the Opel Kaddett?


Yes that is absolutely right. Opel kadett C - 73. But also known as Opel/Vauxhall 1200s.

Even though this is a 1200 site many of us have spent time with the Sunny - I have 4 of them and there are guys who are actively racing them in rally and track. The mechanicals don't differ that much from 1200. The main difference is the rear end is an H150 set up with a coil spring and a 4 bar link. I don't know why but this set up is more likely to spin both wheels than the leaf sprung H145 1200 rear. Looking at your rev counter I would guess you have an A14 motor - they love to rev and like all A series respond very well to basic modifications.

Because Swedes will drink anything

In this case however I believe he was wishing to portray the close bond the driver felt with the car i.e. the sharing of fluids and the desire to be one with his rusty steed. Additionally there is an intended irony with the youthful exuberance of the driver combining with his mechanical inexperience (his awkward actions as he opens the bonnet/hood) leading to his performing the taste test as you would for a fine wine or food. In this example you could also extend the metaphor and say that the director wished the audience to understand that this car has been 'cooked' as a result of the driving we have seen and is now 'well done' and very tasty.

Well I got a good laugh out of this , a fun video indeed.
Now that 140 is awafully clean and straight and your tank slappers on the corner exits are mocking the Rally Gods..........you might want to be careful as that car looks headed for a ditch in it's future or, Just put a cage in the thing and go Rally for real. Your behaviour in the video leads me to belive you will fit right in with rally folk

my mate has an obsession with ruining his local grass patch in his 120y, i think your video will inspire him to take his datto burnouts to a whole new level!

cheers
