For Sale

1972 Datsun 240Z for sale. I’ve been the happy custodian of this fantastic and unrestored 240Z for five years. It was imported by a Lincolnshire based collector from California (so it is left-hand drive), and he definitely knew what he was looking at. It was bought for his wife, who was less keen when the car arrived. Which is when I spotted the for-sale ad, made my bid and became owner. The car is unmessed about with, and pretty much rust free. Being unrestored and 50 years old it does have its share of scratches and dings, but for me I’d rather have that than the whiff of fresh paint and whatever lurks beneath. This is a super solid and honest car. I’ve had loads of old/modified cars over the past 30 years and this one drives the best of all of them. It handles modern day traffic with aplomb and wafts along brilliantly. The engine and box work great, the air-con blows cold (California car, you see) and all the gauges work apart from the clock. Which in my experience is normal service. It’s also the right colour for a 240, and it’s got the right wheels to go with it. Having just been serviced this 240Z needs nothing and is ready to roll through summer ’22. Better still many OEM parts are available to order through your local Nissan dealer – it’s the easiest-to-own ‘old’ car I’ve had. Reason for sale: I’m now 56 years old and want to cram in as many car experiences as I can, and I only have one spot in the garage.The car is based in south Lincolnshire. £32.950 ono    Continue reading...
