  • Welcome to the first upload on a new channel... Birdy 39!
    I'm an Englishman living in the Shikoku Islands of Japan and have recently bought this 1985 U11 Nissan Bluebird.
    Named after the car, this channel is for documenting the ownership experience of the car and it will also be an opportunity for me share a little about what its like to live out here in Japan.
    In this first upload I show you around the car and give my initial thoughts about it.

    Looks like a 1.6 litre.
    Most of the ones sold new in NZ were the 2 litre, and they were fairly grunty for their time - I had the previous model, (910 RWD) wagon - travelled 380,000 km before the rust got to it. The roof actually broke off. Loved that car), ans always intended to replace it with a U11 wagon. Couldn't find one without a noisy 5 speed box, so it never happened.
    I also had an imported 910 turbo 1.8 saloon, but it had been crashed, and was basically impossible to straighten it properly - it had stared to fold up into a slight v-shape just at the front pillars. Only a smidge, but it had pushed the transmission back as well.
    Went for parts.
    Bummer.

    Nice mate..... Been a long time since I've seen a twin spark bluebird! Those used to be really common in New Zealand (where I live)

    This car is super reliable and these car's are galvanised body.

    You are not a car guy if you take anything off the bluebird once you do this you have destroyed a classic gem. Leave the car as is, if you can't sell it to someone who knows what to do with such a good car.
