Datsun 240Z
This is a really important car when we look at Japanese auto, because previously where American and European and British buyers had looked at the Brit and Euro market to give them the sports cars they desired, now had a Japanese contender in the mix.
The Datsun 240Z wasn’t just sold as any old car, it was billed as a personal GT not a sports car, yet the American adverts of the era show rally drivers lauding the credentials that make it a road and race car: the 2.4 litre overhead cam engine, the handling with fully independent rear suspension and disc brakes to front.
Datsun: from Nissan with pride and the pride the brand took in the car is evident. They created a car which was well built, took the styling credentials of other cars in its market and refined them all and combined it with brilliant power.
Motorsport magazine felt it was destined for big things and said it was ideal for the MGB GT owner looking to spend more to enhance performance and prestige.
As we’ve come to expect from Japanese auto, the car was reliable and didn’t throw up all the silly errors and easily avoided mishaps BL seemed to be putting out. The car was front-engined unitary chassis with all independent suspension with McPherson struts to front and rear. The 2.4 straight six engine was paired with a four forward speed box and weighed in at a ton, unladen.
In the late 60s, Datsun, as Nissan were known in the UK and America at the time, had been a brand, sure, but hadn’t been a big contender like they are today. In fact, they only came to Britain in 1968 I believe!
By the 70s, that was changing with cars like the 240Z making people sit up and take notice of the brand as manufacturer.
By 1971, the year this car came to market, Datsun were 5th place in the world for car manufacture and nearly 200 dealerships were in place across the UK. Very fast progress indeed.
Now something I will say, if you read US tests on these it’ll refer to the 4 speed box and if you read the UK tests on these, it refers to the 5 speed box. A small takeaway after driving is that the 5 speed box would definitely be preferable, it does hum a bit in top gear! This being a US import on manual or stick as they refer to it over there, is a 4 forward geared car.
The top speed was quoted as 125mph but in the 5 speed manual loaned by Datsun to MotorSport in 1971, it struggled to top 115 and was vibrating badly; so perhaps whilst it’s a top speed it’s not a speed you’ll be wanting to try and reach!
The 240Z whilst it changed hearts and minds on Japanese cars, was not around all that long in this guise. I believe it came to market in 1969 and was replaced by the 260Z in 1973.
It’s still remembered fondly and despite only doing just over 20 miles per gallon, it’s a sports car I’d drive over many others of the sports cars I’ve tested! With this being a car borrowed from Bidding Classics, we won’t be doing an owners interview today and we’re skipping straight to interior walkthrough.

Seconded - everyone needs to love and respect themselves and their bodies at least as much as they love cars.

[@patriclo9509]

My father bought one of these brand new in the fall of 1972. I didn’t get to drive it until five or six years later. I got my first speeding ticket in it, going downhill, a very good slope. I was probably doing 115 or 120 mph. The ticket was written up at 100 mph. At that speed, I could feel the vibration and felt that it was a little bit nerve-racking. I was going into work and it was 8 AM on a Sunday morning. I came very close to completely getting away from the officer, I didn’t even know he was behind me, ha ha! I noticed that on the handles on the doors of your vehicle, the end pieces covering the screws are missing. Otherwise, everything looks pretty much original. My dad‘s car was navy blue and had a white racing stripes along the bottom of the sides with 240Z cut out. It was a sweet looking automobile

[@davidmichaels8934]

Back in the early 1970,s I was a mechanic in a Datsun garage in Bloxwich in the West Midlands, I had previously worked on all British made cars, but was amazed when I saw the quality of these cars, the only drawback I think was the thinness of the steel in the body, the engine on this particular Datsun the 240 Z was excellent, it had plenty of power, and handled well, what we could not understand was how Datsun could sell these for such a low price, as they had to be transported by ship from Japan to Britain, they really made a dent in the British sports car market, particularly versus the MGB!

[@Mark_T]

Being someone who works a lot on British motorcycles I can see the parallel in car terms with the comparison between British and Japanese cars and bikes of the time. As an aside, I have to say you're looking fabulous yourself. A great review as well. Being another girl involved in what is largely a man's world of classic cars and bikes I've been inspired by yourself, Rainman Ray, Eric O and Ian at Hubnut to look into starting my own channel.

Steph a great video many thanks for this one. As a school boy in the 70s this was a car I used to love to see on the roads as it was so stylish compared to my mum and dad's HB and HC Vivas. Having said that I quite like those now. Back to the Z it had so much more in terms of extras and quality than British cars. It will no doubt be sold very quickly after your great road test has shown how it still drives so well. Ref your own goals well done to you for those . Keep the videos coming they are great.

In the late 70s I was at a camp - well, it was actually a works project - we were stationed on an army base, cutting down brush, turning felled trees into benches, grounds maintenance, etc. In any event, one of the female administrators had a 240Z. She seemed terribly .. sophisticated, and as a 15 year old, I was trying hopelessly to impress. Must have orked at some level because I would sometimes get her to drive me around in the Z, much to the chagrin of the older boys. who were probably a little too obvious in their intent. What a cool car, and though I could never convince her to let me drive (I'd been 'borrowing' family cars since I was 14, lol) it was nevertheless the height of cool to have her zipping around with me in the low slung passenger seat watching her snick through the gears- remember, most US cars were auto by then, and women didn't often drive stick - as I held her can of adult beverage from which I could sometimes share sips. Oh, bad influence :) These were truly revolutionary cars, and pretty much singlehandely killed the trad Brit roadster here in the US, good or ill. [Could have sworn they all had an AM/FM, but maybe I only saw them that way]

[@hutchcraftcp]

Most of them rusted away unfortunately. Great engine

I loved my 280ZX. That Nissan 5-speed was one of the nicest manual transmissions I’ve ever driven. The American MG B desperately needed a 5-speed.

What a beautiful interior in that very rare blue! To me that is the most desirable interior colour out of the 6 choices! The interior is near perfect - apart from 1 crack in the dash, the chrome clips are missing from the r/hand grab handle, & the black inserts are missing from both door handles.

[@cfc1001001cfc]

$3,600 U.S. in 1971 would be $26,382.93 today (£22,717.47)...an outstanding value for what would become a modern classic.

[@scottishcarenthusiastsandtrain]

Beautiful and the Datsun is not bad either!! A excellent Review Steph, very informative and you even managed to match the colour of the Datsun, you look as if you enjoyed driving this.

[@bjschandall285]

I had one as my first car! Taught myself to weld on the badly rusted body, then did a really poor paint job but had one of the cooler cars in high school here in the states. Sadly, it was totalled/written off about a year after all that when a Honda turned in front of me. That lap belt saved me from going into the windshield. I turned around and bought a 280z next!

[@idriveaclassic]

That’s both a brilliant and horrible story. Well done for having the talent to do that.

[@bmw-e30]

Very similar to the Toyota Celica liftback from the seventies and both were beautifully designed coupes. Very enjoyable and comprehensive review there.

[@jimg492]

What an absolutely great vid. I wonder why no 5 speed in the USA 🤔

[@miscrambler]

In the mid-80s I had a friend with one who had gotten rid of the 4-speed (US specs) and replaced it with a 5-speed. Which was the right way to go! I was absolutely mad for it. Loved any excuse to drive it. Never owned one but it's always been a bucket list car for me. Great video as always. Cheers from the US!

[@ljw5768]

I’m 6’2” and when I owned my 260z I was about 21 stone. There was tons of room in the car for me in the Z. However, I couldn’t really fit in an MGB. It was a real squash.

[@gregharvie3896]

Hi from Sydney, Australia, these were great cars and by shock force massively changed people's viewpoint of how far the Japanese car industry had come, value for money, equipment and on point style. A big wake up call. Re the rear end wiggle Stef points out the rear independent suspension as in a tired Triumph TR6 loses grip when it squats deflects and bounces back, if it were looked at in slow motion there is at times little grip hence that wiggle it is a weird floating sensation though amusing on a dry road becomes treacherous in the wet. In 1975 as a 19year old I bought a left-hand drive 4.2 litre Jaguar mk10 compared to my mates near new 240Z the Jag's IRS was superior as the rear wheels stay flat on the road surface at all times, the big jags rear end & suspension grips at all times like a leech does in flesh. On a wet night the loss of traction on my mates 240Z saw it written off & him lucky to walk away with minor cuts etc. He replaced it with a new 2 door Datsun 240K Skyline he owned that for mere 2 years, it met an identical fate as the rear suspension loses traction and the back just swings out when the Datsuns rear suspension squats down. All these years later I'm still driving that big high output Bronze head 4.2 litre Jag mk10. When Datsun made the later, longer 260Z 2+2 they addressed the rear suspension issue by fitting way stiffer rear coil springs and way superior Koni gas shock absorbers, or at least they did in the Australian delivered cars, the end result though was a way firmer ride. Due to accidents and complaints re this exact suspension issue on the Datsun sedans 1600's, 180B's & early 200B's, here in Australia only the first few months' production of 200B sedans had IRS Datsun then fitted the station wagons live rear axle and leaf springs, the Police Accident Investigation team found serious issues with this flawed design.

[@grayfool]

You're perfecty correct to comparing this to the MGB. They were in direct competion at the time. The 240 felt like a world apart from the MG (wich i am a great admirer of, by the way). I'm pretty sure the interior on UK spec cars were just about all black and the five speed box was way better geared than the four speed. The 240 and it's successors were literally game changers. Excellent video Steph. Thanks

[@manofthehour6856]

Quite a surpise choice, but much appreciated as always! Its strange as I wasn't enthusiastic about these when I was a kid....seemed like a California surfer dude car, but forgeting all the preconceptions from then, this seems more upscale an MGB. Its interesting how the Japanese got a late start into being a country with the major players in the International motor industry, but it allowed them to start without preconceived ideas about auto manufacturing and design, and allowed them to take a "best practices" approach to building cars when they were ready for the big leagues at the beginning of the 1970s. Interesting.

Interesting review, while I realise getting hold of one maybe hard, it would have been interesting for you to drive a RHD car with the 5 speed box, and also, I believe the suspension was set up slightly differently for the UK. It is a shame this American model does not have the A/C option, as it would have been interesting to see how this works compared to a modern car. Road and Track did a group test-Triumph GT6 V MGB GT V Fiat 124 V Datsun 240Z. The Datsun Tranced the lot. I did drive one in 1980 and do not recall the rear end misbehaving. Thanks for the review, an interesting watch....Thanks.

Thanks for this delightful road test of a car I seriously coveted from age 15 (ca. 1973), and yes, my favorite color was that blue of your example! Always imagined having one of these to drive up to the ski resorts in Washington State... "Back in the day", I'd read a comparison test of five roadsters from 1969, and the Datsun 2000 (also a Fairlady) was put head-to-head w/ the MGB, MGC, TR-6 (then-new), and the Fiat 124 Spyder; the Datsun was the quickest of the lot, but the reviewers preferred the Fiat, owing to having radial ply tires (only bias-ply on the Datsun), and the ease of operation of the convertible top... Not sure why the U.S. didn't get the 5-speed; 1970 was still well-before the 55 MPH national speed limit; we didn't get the 5-speed option until the 1975 280-Z. The 260-Z was offered only in 1974, as a sort of "stop-gap", probably due to our emissions regulations (when I lived in Australia, one could still get a 260-Z--w/ 5-speed, in 1976); the 280s had Bosch-Nippondenso "L-Jetronic" injection. Horsepower figures likely differed from market-to-market; I think the 240 was around 150BHP U.S. trim, but the 260 had dropped to 139, while the fuel-injected 280 was at 145...Also, back in the day (again) when I'd read Road & Track magazine religiously, their Japanese correspondent said that the Japanese ratings would appear overstated, compared w/ "SAE Net" ratings (they used the "Japanese Industrial Standard", which was said to be about 15 % over SAE Net) (Also probably why our 96 BHP Datsun 510 didn't feel like 96 BHP!) Thanks for the memories; used to see these all over Seattle; that blue and a later Chartreuse seemed the most popular colors!
