HERE WE HAVE A SUPERB CLASSIC DATSUN LAUREL AVAILABLE FROM OURSELVES. THIS PARTICULAR MODEL IS THE C31 2.4 LITRE STRAIGHT 6 COUPLED WITH A 5 SPEED MANUAL GEARBOX. JUST THE 86,000 MILES FROM NEW AND ONLY BEEN IN THE HANDS OF 3 PRIVATE KEEPERS. VERY ORIGINAL RIGHT DOWN TO THE DATSUN MUDFLAPS AND INTERIOR MATS. THE LAUREL SHARES THE 2.4 ENGINE FROM THE LEGENDARY 240Z, THE MAIN DIFFERENCE BEING THE LAUREL RUNS A SINGLE CARB AS OPPOSED TO A TWIN CARB SET UP ON THE 240Z. DATSUN'S ARE BECOMING INCREASINGLY RARE TO FIND, LET ALONE IN THIS CONDITION SO WELL WORTH INVESTING IN AS THEY ARE GOING UP IN VALUE. SERVICE HISTORY WISE WE HAVE THE ORIGINAL SERVICE BOOK WITH 7 STAMPS IN, AND A BILL FOR A FULL SERVICE AND NEW CLUTCH KIT FITTED AT 86,000 MILES. RECENT WORK INCLUDES A NEW WATER PUMP FITTED. NOT A FULL HISTORY BUT HAVING LOW OWNERSHIP THROUGH ITS LIFE AND THE CONDITION OF THE VEHICLE SHOWS THE DATSUN HAS BEEN WELL CARED FOR. THE MOT RUNS UNTIL 5TH OF AUGUST WITH NO ADVISORIES. TO DRIVE? EXCELLENT. SHE FIRES UP FROM COLD FIRST TURN OF THE KEY WITHOUT HESITATION, THE GEARBOX AND CLUTCH COMBINATION IS SNAPPY AND PRECISE, SUPERB ROAD MANNERS, GREAT FEEL TO THE STEERING AND SUPREMELY COMFORTABLE TO CRUISE AROUND IN. SUFFICE TO SAY SHE STARTS, IDLES, ACCELERATES, HANDLES AND BRAKES ALL AS YOU WOULD EXPECT, AND POSSIBLY BETTER. NO 'TUNE UP' REQUIRED, SIMPLY READY TO GET IN AND ENJOY. THE BODYWORK IS VERY SMART FOR ITS YEARS, A FEW MARKS HERE AND THERE AS TO BE EXPECTED FOR A CLASSIC VEHICLE BUT I THINK YOU WILL BE PLEASENTLY SURPRISED. NO NASTY DENTS OR UNSIGHTLY SCRATCHES TO MENTION, THE PAINTWORK ALL ROUND RETAINS ITS GLOSSY SHINE AND LOOKS SUPERB IN THE TWO TONE BLUE… Continue reading...
