This is a Yue Loong YLN303 which is a Taiwanese built Datsun Sunny. A lot of the Datsuns you saw would most likely have been built by Yue Loong. After '92 they became Yulon and I think later cars were sold as Nissans as they were just imported rather than built there.
Did you see any K11 Micra (March) pickups? They have those over there and they look pretty cool.

Remember the days when sex was safe and motorsport was dangerous. Vintage bling always attracts pussy.

They have those over there and they look pretty cool. Very very interesting. Nope unfortunatly not but that might be because they usually use the blue trucks for work vehicles. Why Taiwan? Well for one I don't like tourists and the things that go along with tourists (robbing, scamming etc). I went last year and loved it so much I went back. It's much like Japan and the roads are fantastic for riding on. The locals are very friendly and everyone will take pictures with you, just because you're white. Oh and Taiwanese girls are hot. The list goes on ;D

Yeah if you only stayed in Taipai it's a bit dull. I only spent 1 day there. The real country is out in the mountains and beyond I had a tour guide luckily, with a sat nav ;D Everything from abandoned hotels to wide eye'd natives (look like Indonesians). And of course optional speed limits on windy roads with crazy traffic.
