[net.auto] Advice on 280Z a/o Scirocco

malibu@hound.UUCP (K.KRUSINSK) (11/18/85)

I'm looking for any available advice, hints, or rumors
from owners of Datson 280Zs or VW Scirocco's.
I'm interested in buying something along those lines
from the 76-79 model years.
I've been commuting up to Hoboken (ack!) since September
and I'm looking for something RELIABLE to take me through
this winter and next year.  I've been making this
daily trip in my Fiat Spyder till now, but it's
almost gotten me killed twice for no good reason.
The last thing I want to do is die trying to get to Hoboken.
I'm still interested in sports cars, though, so I figured
something like the Datsun should be a good bet.
I'm a reasonably good mechanic, and I'm not afraid
of ,doing a little work on the car I buy, but
I don't wasnt it consuming my life like the Fiat.
SO - If anybody knows something about these cars
that I should know (any special problems to look for),
let me know.  I'd really appreciate the help.
