if anything its a testimate to the reilability of our beloved datsun's! espeically compared to the other 70's built cars built in other countries. it was interesting what James May said 'this was the car that showed our fathers that you could get a reliable car' although many people mock the humble 120y and say that its the ugliest car ever produced, this maybe true but it has actually been proven to be highly reliable with all its 69hp! to me thats the most important thing when it comes to motoring, you don't want to constantly have your hand in your pocket constantly breaking down and forking out hard earned dollars on fixing stupid things that aren't reliable.
I would have been interested to see the 120y filled with water to see how good the japanese built them! we all know that it would have faired pretty well, although i wouldn't be able to stomach the unwillful destruction of an 1motoring icon! would've made good tv though!!
