Yes, these are good cars, and not too rare out here on the West Coast. I see them driving around regularly. I haven't seen another B110 for about 2 years now. But I see B310 every week.
The B310 ("Datsun 210"), 1979-1982 model years, is a good model. Only the "FU" model with A14 engine and five-speed got 49 mpg. Other models got closer to 40 mpg. This was highway only, on flat interstates. In town, expect about 25 mpg.
Timing chain is unlikely to be a problem, these engines rarely have a bad chain. Plus it has an automatic adjuster.
Most likely bad fuel ecomony is just needing a careful tuneup.
