One more pic, this was my dads one (One of several he had over the years, including my red one)
Of the lot, I wish I still had this one. I am not quite sure I would ay the S30 was THE most beautiful car ever built, but they have to be pretty close. What saddens me is that since I sold mine in 97, I have not yet found a car with a driving position as good as these things came out of the box with in 1969, almost no adjustability but they were just right. Nothing else I have owned or drive has matched it for such a natural and comfortable set of controls to sit behind. Admittedly with a seat upgrade, I used to drive mine between Melbourne and Sydney and get out feeling good, in my work car (Holden Trailblazer, IMO an awful car) I can barely sit in it for an hour without aches when I get out.
