reCOUPErator Posted June 24, 2005 Report Posted June 24, 2005 nice(ish) ute needs some stuff though, -more interesting colour -rims -Pod filter -something else, but it just dosent look right! Quote
Ratty Posted June 25, 2005 Report Posted June 25, 2005 1600 would be the car you would spend them $$$$ not a 1200 ute but each to there own my bro has both 1200 sedan and 1600 sedan the 1600 looks heaps better upside there old school love the old cars!!! They have character Quote
ancullen Posted June 26, 2005 Report Posted June 26, 2005 yet another example of Datsun's superiority!!! If they're so good why are they using a TOYOTA motor??? And for that matter, why do you drive a WRX and not still a Datto? (Sorry, couldn't resist). :P Quote
mikeys toy[RL] Posted June 26, 2005 Report Posted June 26, 2005 i f'n HATE 510's....everybody confuses my Cricket with a 510. at shows the young people say; "nice datsun" the old people say; "why the hell are you here? this show is for chryslers, not this jap shit" then i say: "this is an english chrysler" they say; "no, it's a colt, made by mitsubishi" then i beat them up ............

demuire Posted June 26, 2005 Report Posted June 26, 2005 at shows the young people say; "nice datsun" Yeah, I get that a lot too. Either that, or "nice Gemini". I have no idea why some people think my car is a Gemini, it doesn't even look like one... Quote
mikeys toy[RL] Posted June 27, 2005 Report Posted June 27, 2005 (edited) pics just as soon as i get 'er out here picture baby shit green (like the old refridgerators) w/ black hood, boot and stripes Edited June 27, 2005 by mikeys toy Quote
demuire Posted June 27, 2005 Report Posted June 27, 2005 And they called that a Cricket??? What a let down, it's almost like calling a Mustang like... "Sunflower" or something... Quote
mikeys toy[RL] Posted June 27, 2005 Report Posted June 27, 2005 (edited) in england they were Hillman Avengers, sunbeam avengers elsewhere. they became chrysler avengers and talbot avengers after 1974 they were called a plymouth cricket in the us. they only imported them '71-'73 google is your friend.....

demuire Posted June 27, 2005 Report Posted June 27, 2005 At least "Avenger" sounds like a tough sort of name. Cricket sounds like something you'd call... Like a car you would drive to the shops. Like a little small hatchback. Not a tough muscle car... I know, maybe it's like when they call a really big muscular guy a name like "Tiny" :P Quote
Banjo Posted June 27, 2005 Report Posted June 27, 2005 Well ! You two have now answered a question I wanted to ask Mike, but just wasn't game. Why do you call your car "Cricket" ? Now I know. A bit like our Chrysler "Centra", isn't it Fook ? :P Quote
mikeys toy[RL] Posted June 27, 2005 Report Posted June 27, 2005 (edited) i think you guys had them as a dodge 1800 i think this is a bit :P oh well, nick can move it. we never got the avenger tiger version this is a cricket... Edited June 27, 2005 by mikeys toy Quote
demuire Posted June 27, 2005 Report Posted June 27, 2005 What is a Chrysler Centra? Tried looking for pics, got lots of sites that were not in English :P mikey: What IS the topic? :D Quote
mikeys toy[RL] Posted June 27, 2005 Report Posted June 27, 2005 (edited) new zealand avengers; something about datsun utes.... Edited June 27, 2005 by mikeys toy Quote
