two sunny wagons two 120ys and a 1200 sedan out of the lot i'd say the 120y has the best from both the sunny and 1200 but would have to say the sunny is the best out of two had all the springs replaced in the sunny after some idiot cut them all. (up on the hoist getting a road worthy and front springs drop out) only cost 170 a pair.

I have both a 1200 wagon and a '80 Sunny Wagon

IMHO the 1200 looks and handles much better than the Sunny. But like what others are saying the Sunny is a much nicer ride. Better interior. Quiter in cabin.

after 4 years driving a b310 daily i can say that it has a good hadling in turns. i did enter a roundabout @ 50mph and the car was stable and reliable. they ve got a cute look to. i will post more info once my sunny (b310) gtir will be more advanced since it is still in early stages and certain things are being tested and to be decided.

B110 handles better, but the B310 has a more comfortable ride. 1200 just needs a wider tire. Some B310 came with 175-wide 13" tires, but the 12"-tyred B310 was no special thing.

Out of interest how do the Sunnys handle compared with a 1200?

I imagine with a more sophisticated rear end they might corner a bit better?

Sunny with an SR20 Turbo would be the go

I'll post some pics once mine is finished

I'm with the genarule concences, Hot 1200, daily sunny...

good question, I think about this myself sometimes. As an owner of both, I think the sunny is a much improved car over the 1200, except in the looks department. As a daily hack I would take the sunny. For competition however, you just can't ignore the fact that the sunny is over 100kg heavier- that's a lot. Plus the looks factor again! Don't get me wrong sunny's are fantastic cars and parts are still quite readily available which in my case (rally) is a big plus.

Certainly a bit fatter than a 1200,but heaps of room under the bonnet,and with what is basically a four link rear end.....lots of plusses with a sunny with rust not normally a problem.

We have faith here as we are doing a new Sports Sedan Sunny(very slowly)

Sunny (1979-1982 Datsun B310) is the next best thing to a 1200 (1970-1973 Datsun B110). It is larger and softer riding, but weighs no more than a B210.
