They look like 6j x15" from an Astra or Cavalier for a guess. I've got a set of four that look the same

Yeah, but look at it. It looks great. You've got your Nova back.

I'm 57. Do I win a prize?(Not Werthers Originals)

lol

That looks a lovely car in honest condition and I can't believe that it hasn't been snapped up straight away.

Are spectators allowed and what time does it start please?

Thanks for that Novasport. I'm fitting the six dial clocks to my Merit at the weekend,so I'll swap the cable too. Top man.

Brilliant. Well done.

I have a 1985 1.3 SR engine and the terminals on the switch are a small pin and the other one is a weird plastic connector. The weird plastic connector terminal is the warning light and has a blue...

OK, that's good. Thank's for that.

Thanks people for your help.Meritlover,I've had a look at the SR engine bay that I've taken the engine from and I think you are right! Two small (approx3mm) plastic pipes lead up onto the nearside...

I'm going to fit the 1.3 engine from a 1985 SR into my 1988 1.2 Merit. On the back of the SR cylinder block,just by the starter motor,there is a screw in fitting with two outlets. My question...

I'm after a set of four 14" ET49 steel wheels(the type with the round vent holes) in good condition and preferably within about 50 miles of Nottingham. I've got £50 birthday money to...

The before and after pics of the Mexico Red Merit are of my car:).Many thanks for posting them up.... Millworm: It'll be Spring soon and you'll be raring to go again. You only need to see another...

I've just bought a F**d Puma 1.6 for £500 and it's brilliant to drive.

I wonder if Mini van/estate ones would be heavier duty? They might be a bit longer though.

Brilliant stuff.Well done.

They only look to be about £20 a pair for standard Mini rears,so not a big loss if it doesn't work. I've just had an idea. If you buy some and they don't fit,cover them in dust and straw and then...

It looks fantastic whether it does ten miles,or ten thousand miles per year.:)

The Haynes book of Nova lies(909) doesn't give a ride height,but it does give an overall height of 1360mm(53.5")for the saloon and 1365mm(53.7")for the hatchback and a ground clearance of 144mm(5.7")...

Is this any good to you?

I don't know where abouts you are in the East Midlands Iain, but Davmac Spares at Sutton in Ashfield (01623 550744) have always been pretty good at getting mechanical stuff for my car.

Well done.That car is a credit to you. Standard Nova's are a very rare thing these days aren't they?

I've got a 1988 Nova 1.2 Merit with standard 13" wheels and I would like to try this.Is this the correct one?...

Novaboi19-Are your 14" steel wheels ET49,not buckled and do they have the round vent holes ? If they are,I would be interested at £40 and I will collect them if the other fella doesn't want them....
