Technical info
Full description
- Originally prepared for the 2012 London to Cape Town Rally and built for strength and durability
- Subsequently returned to Motorman in Greece for further restoration and upgrading costing another £15,000-£20,000
- It has a Greek AVR that is valid until November 2023 and, we understand, an FIVA identity card (not seen)
- After the 2012 London to Cape Town event it has been dry stored and only used occasionally
- Purchased by our vendor three years ago with plans to go rallying however the arrival of COVID changed his plans (and everybody else's)
- In the meantime, the Datsun has benefitted from two new wings and a front-end respray
- As well as historic rallies, this classic '24-ounce' is suitable for club events with night stages, regularity runs, demonstrations at Race Retro etc. or even just going to the pub on a winter's evening
