Title: 105's off the production line
Post by: 105gta on June 12, 2016, 07:13:53 AM
A quick video that some 105 owners may find interesting.

Next time you choose to take the Nissan or Toyota to a club event instead of your beloved 105 due to weather or or uncertain road conditions, remember these images of how the factory treated them during final testing off the production line.
They were built to be driven and enjoyed people! ;)

Fantastic film clip!

I'll have to rush out to the shed now, hop into the Super and just saw the steering wheel back and forth a few times.

Fantastic footage!

At least it verifies the myth somewhat, that 'Red' must be faster - that red GT got a fair old work out above what the other cars got!

Cheers.

Lovely lack of Occupation Health and Safety, no tie down straps for the cars when driven on Dyno, seal belts, only for whimps,..... if they were fitted, driving on the test track, with cars going all over the place, cars doing doughnuts, burnouts, running quite fast up to an armco barrier, wonder how many cars hit it and had to be 'massaged' back into shape before going off to dealers, it is these things as to why we love this Marque so much, Colin.
