These cars are cool but not amazing. 1981 Cortina XR6 Interceptor has the same 0-60 mph time as 1981 Volvo 240 2.1 Turbo which was just a normal car for everyone. 1984 Sierra 5.0 XR8 has 0-100 kph time in 7.0s, while the 1984 BMW 3.5 M5 0-100 kph in 6.1s. If you call Sierra XR8 a race car, what is BMW M5 then? BMW has much more power, is faster, accelerates better, handles better.

Just found your channel bro - loved hearing about these SA market fast fords - here in the UK we had a selection of awesome fast fords in the 90s but I'd never heard about the XR8 - what a legendary car! Keep up the great content bro.

Please do an episode on the HiACE!

The 333i never raced in Group 1, although one did race in Wesbank Modifieds for a time (Robbie Smith). Not sure if it was built using a 'genuine' 333i though.

Now we need a SuperBoss video 🙃

As a Strayan, I totally get why major Euro and Seppo car brands, didnt bother exporting to our countries. After all, Suth Ifrica and Straya are at the arse-end of the world. Why would they friggin' bother? It'd be for f-all sales. However, that some quirky local car products were concocted by Saffers, might be even less interesting than my own country's car industry. Like many (most? all?) nations, some Australians can be pretty obnoxious - but we aren't South African. 🙄

Why they remove things that work and bring shit in its place i do not understand😢😢😂😅

Dude... This video is poes lekker 🇿🇦😎✌️ aweh!

I owned a Ford escort RS 2000 BDA motor works convertion that car was a beast

my Frend i love u work pls keep going 😇

And they (if in good condition)are more expensive today than when they were brand new

The worst thing about this video is that you have made me mourn the loss of my beloved 1400 Bakkie. Your reminded me of all the good times we had. Because of this video, I am probably going to go against my natural instinct and proper financial advice and search for one to buy. THANK YOU FOR THE AWESOME VIDEO

Those bakkies got stolen like it is going out of style. BTW My Toyota Conquest 1997 model were stolen 13 years ago. 96 cars get stolen in SA on ave, daily.

Well great.... now i wanna buy a 333i e30 :/... but i cant find any. Guess i will look for a good e30 chassis and get that 7 series engine xDD

"...oh we love you little bakkie always willing always happy, you're the champion of Africa for sure..."

Got to love a bakkie!

Aye... Glad to be in here early. Amazing vid man!!!

Best bakkie ever!

Niss-han, nie nisin nie, wat is jy, 'n Amerikaaner? Fok, kom jy van Benoni af? Oo God nee!

I miss my XR6

Ive had 12 of them in my lifetime, It was also my first car in Standard 8. Whatacarrrr:) Pitty they are so expensive now days, Id love to start another project again:)

Cool story . I like my Nissan van . Never really caught on here in the states and was canceled after only 9 years . But under its hood lies the heart of a race engine . Nissan’s naturally aspirated vk5.6 liter all aluminum with forged steel crank dohc 32 valve true dual exhaust into single outlet V8 . 385 hp stock with its final iteration in their pickup truck reaching 400 hp . Not too shabby for a cargo van eh . 🕺👍🚐

Crotch compensation….whatever do you mean? 😀😀😀

However over those 40 years Nissan could not get the doors to stop sagging.

Your videos are excellent. Well done. You need to try to find the local magazines from the past to get the local flavour and jargon right. This is very difficult to glean from the internet. We never had the Sunny name in SA. They did in Zim though. Here cars were generally called by their alpha/numerical codes, until we got the Laurel, Stanza, skyline, Pulsar etc. A standout Datsun to us would be SSS (510). I hated those Datsuns in the 70's, they rusted so badly in the Cape. They definitely were bullet proof though. I would love to have one now though. So pure, so elegant. Thanks for your excellent work.

The lower roof looks better in my opinion. Also best name for a RUclips channel. Big ups bro but you still need to drive a car with a carb

I want it to be my first car

Also grew up with those, what a champ indeed hey ✌️👍👌😏

I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?" 76 He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. 77 For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times. 78 Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. 79 And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept the way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear the Most High -- 80 such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways. 81 The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. 82 The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. 83 The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. 84 The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. 85 The fifth way, they shall see how the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. 86 The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. 87 The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they sinned while they were alive, and before whom they are to be judged in the last times. 88 "Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. 89 During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. 90 Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: 91 First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders. 92 The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. 93 The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the unrighteous wander, and the punishment that awaits them. 94 The third order, they see the witness which he who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. 95 The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. 96 The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come; and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. 97 The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. 98 The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom they served in life and from whom they are to receive their reward when glorified. 99 This is the order of the souls of the righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." 100 I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" 101 He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations." 102 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the day of judgment the righteous will be able to intercede for the unrighteous or to entreat the Most High for them, 103 fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." 104 He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The day of judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, 105 so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own righteousness and unrighteousness." .....2 Esdras 7:75 ///////////////

Awesome buddy i like you content🙌👍😊

This guy is so cute!!😍😍

This bakkie is really a "champ"

Fiat Strada bakkie was built by Nissan in SA

the sunny was called 120y and 140y

Thank you for this video. It made me feel really happy! I miss my Nissan 1400 and often think that I should never have sold her. She was so great!

Had a Datsun 1400 for 15 years.

Man alive...this video took me back so many years and happy memories! My dad had a baby blue 4 speed Deluxe which was stolen in '92, I got a brand new metallic blue 1400 Champ in '93 whilst in matric and that carried me through my student and 1st 5 years of working life! In 2001 I bought my last Champ. To this day I regret every selling it! Think it's time to find a fairly decent one that I can restore to it's former glory...

Capri 3000 gt?

I drove a company one for a year and a half. Great reliable, but hell on the legs of a 6 ft guy. My knees hung around my ears. My head never reached the roof. They should have given it MORE LEGROOM!!!

What a fun channel. Subbed!

It had legroom for 1 meter tall people, or people with 30 cm legs and 1,5 meter body.

It was such a good vehicle that Nissan stopped making it. The 1400 and the VW Beetle are the only south African made cars that have ever worn out their body stamping dies.

Just a few corrections, the 333i was not built as an alternative to the M3 because it was actually released before the M3, the M3 was only released in 1986, BMW South Africa has a history of building race-inspired performance versions of BMWs like the 70s E12 530MLE way before the M5 or the M535i of the 80s. The 325iS was intended as the South African alternative to the M3. Also, you use 325i Shadowline and the 325iS interchangeably, they are two VERY different cars. The Shadowline is a standard 325i (2.5l) with a kit like a G20 318i M Spoort is a standard 3 series with an M-Sport kit, but the 325iS (2.7l) is a highly tuned car with M parts. The 333i was front-heavy with terrible oversteer (compared to the 325i), offering very little performance improvement over the standard 325i except in a straight line. The standard 325i had better weight balance, driving dynamics, and handling especially in the bends. The 325iS changed that, you got M3 driving dynamics, handling, and performance and the most awesome exhaust note. Of all South African E30's the 325iS is regarded as the king of the hill because of its performance. The high value of the 333i is more so because of its rarity as opposed to its performance, the 325iS easily bests the 333i on every metric. Many 333i owners at that time had upgraded to the 325iS and many standard 325i owners had better performance than the 333i with some simple mods.

I have a 2000 1400, NO rust due to my squrting old engine oil in every nook and cranny in my bakkie, I have also installed an electric fan in the space between the grill and radiator, its controlled by a toggle switch which brings the fan on when I see the temp going up on the guage in heavy traffic, I love this bakkie.
