Forget This One — Believe it or not, I was taught to drive in one of these. Even worse the dam thing was bright YELLOW!! There was nothing to like about this car AT ALL. The build quality was terrible, it certainly didn't have any fun factor. As far as styling goes - FORGET IT!

Primary Use: Family transportation

Pros: none - part from passing my test 1st time in it

Cons: plenty

1973 Datun 1200- Pure Fun By Chemdude

I bought one new in 1973. Driving it was a lot of fun. The 4 speed transmission shifted easily and smoothly. The clutch was much lighter and easier to use than American cars of that period. I drov... Read More

Got Me Where I Wanted To Go, But Fell Apart From The Inside Out. By lightfoot44

fun to drive, but acceleration on a cold engine was downright dangerous. Sometimes the car would sputter and die when accelerating into traffic. Excellent handling on dry roads, but in snow this car... Read More
