Mentioned earlier here :
"This 1981 LHD example is believed to have originated from the US, as the chassis number correlates with Federal spec models. Specified as the grand luxury model, part of the standard equipment included a 3-speed auto, power steering, manual climate control, central warning system and a whole host of goodies not seen on many of its competitors at its original price point, making it the highest spec Datsun 280 ZX sold."
1) It's a 1980 car (see the VIN plate) but excused as the US market sells cars with the following year' date.
2) 3-speed auto
3) does the manual climate control (read aircon) still work ? It doesn't quote that it works !
4) highest spec Datsun to date (in 1980) - not THE highest spec Datsun ever.....I don't think....somebody ?
Nice touch :
"Presented with a full set of Datsun branded seat doilies, they fit in well with the ornate ambience of the red interior."
Very tasteful.....
