1975 Datsun 120Y review from Australia and New Zealand
"A simple, but great car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The base of the carburettor became warped causing stalling and missing.
Brake master cylinder needed rebuilding because of leakage.
General comments?
The Datsun 120Y is in my opinion is the most reliable, fuel-efficient car I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing.
