Seller's Notes

This Datsun 240Z is a celebrated Japanese sports car, finished in a head-turning colour scheme. It is powered by a reconditioned 2.4-litre straight-six, driving the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission and differential. The car has reportedly benefitted from significant mechanical refurbishment under the current ownership, including suspension, braking, and cooling upgrades. This example has been with the seller for around 20 years and is reported to have covered only around 27,600 km since the engine was reconditioned. The odometer indicates 68,131 miles, which the seller believes to be accurate, though this is not warranted. Build year: 1973 This 240Z is finished in an appealing hue of metallic blue with black bumpers and a grey taillight panel, over a black vinyl-trimmed interior, featuring diamond embossed rear cabin upholstery and chrome trim highlights. It rides on a set of 14-inch cross-spoke alloy wheels finished in gloss-black with body-coloured wheel nuts, and fitted with Nankang Touring Sport NS tyres. Equipment includes a top-tinted windscreen, a Jeco analogue clock, and heater and ventilation controls. This example has been enhanced with upgraded suspension dampers, an aluminium radiator, an aftermarket steering wheel, twin electric fans, an upgraded fuel pump, a ceramic-coated exhaust manifold, a stainless steel exhaust system, electronic ignition, an upgraded fuse box, and a front strut brace. The car is accompanied by a Haynes Datsun 240Z Automotive Repair Manual, a spare wheel, a Datsun S30 Series service manual, two original steering wheels, a spare door mirror, spare Datsun exterior badges, and receipts for major reconditioning work. It is supplied with two keys, one for the doors and one for the ignition. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: the engine bay has been repainted, a repair was carried out on a small patch of rust on the passenger door, there is peeling clear coat in two areas, paint chips and minor surface rust on the bonnet, and cracks in the rear hatch paint. There is a small paint-damaged area in the engine bay caused by a hydraulic fluid spill. The original carpet and seat upholstery are showing signs of wear, with some small tears in the seat covers. Service history to be confirmed by paperwork. The engine was reconditioned in June 2012. This Datsun 240Z is an iconic classic Japanese sports car, retaining its classic character while benefiting from mechanical refurbishment under long-term ownership. Its rebuilt engine, refreshed suspension and braking components, and upgraded cooling and fueling systems ensure it is ready to be enjoyed with confidence. Combining a celebrated design with an engaging driving experience, this 240Z would make a desirable weekend classic or a solid addition to any enthusiast’s collection.
