    This 1971 Datsun 240Z Sold For R4.6 Million

    Yup, you read that title correctly and for those in the know these things sold for about $3,800 (approx. R56k) brand new.

    This completely stock, 21,000 mile 1971 Datsun 240Z sold for $310,000 (approx. R4.6 million) on Bring a Trailer.

    The racing green over tan colour combo is elegant and classic, and the paint, interior, and pretty much everything else seems to be an immaculate condition for a 49-year-old machine.

    It is powered by a 2.4-litre (hence the 240 in the name) inline six-cylinder rated for 150 hp (112 kW) when it was new. Recent maintenance done on the engine includes carburetor adjustments, a new fuel filter, re-gapped spark plugs, and an oil change. The distributor has been ditched for electronic ignition.

    Based on the price in 1971, this sale represents an 8,200 percent growth in its dollar-for-dollar value since it was originally sold. If you bought this from new, you will be smiling.

    • First time seeing the new Bentley Bentayga S in the metal and wow it is striking.

Those 22" wheels look superb, especially in this spec.

Starts from R4,695,000 and that gets you a twin-turbo V8 delivering 542 hp (404 kW) and 770 Nm of torque.

    • #MercedesAMGMonday done right with the brutal AMG GT Black Series recently snapped by @matts_cars_za for @amg_driving_academy_za 😎

This is the first time a GT Black Series has been shot on track in SA and potentially the first time one has posed with the slightly less hardcore AMG GT R Pro.

    • It has been quite some time since this Koenigsegg CCXR was seen in South Africa but it made an appearance today and @thecarscene_ managed to snap it in Cedar, Fourways.

As far as we know, there are only 2 Eggs in SA. This one and an orange CCX in East London which has also not been seen in quite some time.

    • #WideWednesday showing off this bold Urus sporting the Novitec Esteso widebody and aero kit done by @race1_ 

It also packs a full Supersprint exhaust so you will certainly hear it before you see it coming.
