A fledgling Japanese automobile company asked a veteran German auto maker to suggest a name for its new car.

"We need a name no later than tomorrow," said the Japanese official.

"Dat soon?" replied the surprised German.

And Nissan's famous Datsun series was born.

 

 

        There was once a snail who went car shopping.  After a
whole day's test driving and negotiating, he decided he liked the
280Z the most.
        So he went to the dealer.
Dealer: Ah, Mr. Snail, glad to see you back.
Snail: Does this 280Z here come in red?
D: We don't have it in the showroom, but we can order one for you.
S: Very well, as long as we are ordering it, I'd like to put in
   some options, I want to install a cassette recorder..
D: okay..
S: have the windows tinted..
D: fine..
S: drill in a sunroof...
D: we'll do..
S: and change the material of the car seats from vinyl to fabric.
D: Will that be all, sir?
S: One more thing, how about changing the 280Z to read 280S?
D: That shouldn't be a problem, but may I know why?
S: Oh, so that when I cruise around in my new car, people will turn
   their heads with admiration and say, "See that S car go!"

Two men were walking through the desert. An airplane carrying car parts was flying over the desert at the same time. The plane was taking strain and needed to lose some wieght fast and began to throw out car parts into the desert. Parts began to fall around the men and one said, 'run it's raining datsun cogs'.

A bloke pulls up in his car alongside a young boy, opens the door and says "If I give you a bag of sweets and ten pounds, will you get in?" 
The boy replies "No way". 
The man then says "How about a bag of sweets and twenty pounds?" 
The boy replies "I am not interested" 
"Okay" says the man "How about a bag of sweets and fifty pounds?" 
The boy replies "Look Dad, you bought the bl--dy Datsun, you live with it, okay?!"

A woman calls an import parts warehouse and asks for a 28-ounce water pump. 

"A what?" says the confused parts guy. 

"My husband says he needs a 28-ounce water pump." 

"A 28-ounce water pump? What kind of car does it fit?" 

"A Datsun." 

As the parts guy writes down "Datsun, 28 oz. water pump" the light in his head goes on. "Oh yes ma'am. We've got 28-ounce water pumps. We have 24-ounce and 26-ounce water pumps too." 

"Finally," she says. "You're the first place I've called that knew what I was talking about." 

"Yes ma'am. That's because we're a full service parts warehouse. It's our job to have the parts you need, like a 28-ounce water pump," he says, smiling, as he jots down customer pick-up, Datsun 280Z water pump, partnumber ...

Q. What's worse than raining datsun and cogs?

A. Hailing cabs.

A Guy breaks down in his Datsun bakkie out in Boksburg. A Subaru pulls up
next to him :'Ek sê, come I'll sommer tow you with my Subaru, but if I drive
too fast, flash your lights and hoot so that I can slow down!' 

Off they go... Pull up to a robot, Ferrari pulls up next to the Subaru,
tunes ' Wanna dice ek sê?' Revving engines, robot goes green, and they haul
it down the road. 

Dude standing on the side of the road sees them tearing past, neck in neck. 

Phones his tjommie 'Ai boet, I've got a story to tell you, I just saw a
Subaru and Ferrari dicing, neck in neck ek sê, like 300km/h' 

Tjommie - 'Pretty hip ey?' 

Dude says to him ' That aint the story, there's a Datsun bakkie right behind
them, flashing and hooting, he wants to fo**en overtake china!!!!!'
