i used to own a 1200 coupe, but sold it when i picked up a one owner ke20.
how much do datto 1200s weigh?
according to my parts catalogue my ke20 (lighter than the red ke25 pictured) comes in at 740kg........

I really like the look of the old late 60-early 70s corona, its boxey yet has a cool flair to it. Datsun and Toyota were very compeditive with each other and heeps of their designs are very similar. They were/are both strong light simple cars that were made with good metal (for their time). Theyre much of a muchness.

Well, the 1200 comes in around 725kg.

I can tell you from experience, EVERY Toyota (comparable to another, similar Datsun), is heavier. But, I think they are built a little more "solid".

Oh yeah, that corolla from the states is fantastic, just need to remove that silly looking American flag from the front bumper... heheheh, just kidding mate...
please don't nuke us, we have no weapons of mass destruction here. Just a bad sense of humour on my behalf... is that a weapon?

welcome to the toyota corolla club

Why people????

Datsun forever!!

Well, the early celicas had a 1.6 motor producing 115hp, and my 180b has 105hp, and the celica has it in the looks department in my op. The 1200 has it over the corolla, But wot does power really have to do with it in this day and age, drop a turbo-charged motor into anything and it will fly.

i'm sorry about my first comment i did forget about the short wheel base 40 series land cruiser soft top i think those are cool especially with a 253 or 308 and huge wheels!!!! great fun mud car

They are a waste of time off-road. The 2 tonne of weight (With V8), doesn't get very far without getting stuck. Cruisers are for cruising the streets. Unfortunely so are the Patrols.

I wouldn't mind having one of these.
Does anyone know what a Mango is?
