"Datsun Does the Unimaginable!  Nissan Puts People First."
 
The Nissan S30, sold in Japan as the Nissan Fairlady Z and in other markets as the Datsun 240Z, then later as the 260Z and 280Z, was a grand tourer auto produced by Nissan (Datsun in USA) from 1969 until 1978 - it was the first car in Nissan's Z series of sports cars.
 
Aiming to compete directly with established European sports cars, Datsun priced the new 240Z within $200 of the British MGB-GT in the United States, a five-year-old design that showed its age.  The 240Z's styling, engineering, relatively low price, and impressive performance resonated with the public, received a positive response from both buyers and the motoring press, and immediately generated long waiting lists.
 
Safari rallys have its roots in the original East African Safari Rally, which was first held in 1953 to celebrate the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.  It quickly became one of the most prestigious and toughest rallies in the world, attracting top international drivers and teams.  Over the years, the rally has gone through several changes in format and organization.  In 2003, the East African Safari Classic Rally was established as a separate event to revive the spirit of the original rally and cater to classic car enthusiasts.
 
At its core, classic rallying is all about adventure and exploration.  Unlike other forms of motorsport, classic rallying takes place on open roads, with drivers and co-drivers navigating challenging routes through some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the world.  From the rolling hills of Tuscany to the rugged savannas of East Africa, classic rallying offers a unique and unforgettable way to experience the world.
 
But classic rallying is about more than just the scenery.  It's also about skill, strategy, and teamwork.  Drivers and co-drivers work together to navigate challenging courses, using a combination of maps, GPS systems, and their own knowledge and expertise to stay on track and avoid accidents.  The best classic rally teams are able to balance speed with precision, taking on challenging routes while still staying within the limits of their cars and their own abilities.
