    Default Novavan

    Bought this van off the bay last October. Its been sitting in my girlfriends garage since then as its SORN but now the nice weathers finally here im going to pull my finger out and get it on the road at last. I work in the construction trade and im using my A reg redtop for work and im having to put all my tools in which is a pain so i thought to myself buy a novavan, problem solved

    Its got:
    redtop with F16 box
    laguna front splitter
    side skirts
    mk 1 spoiler
    clear rear lights
    momo wheel
    astra digi dash
    bucket seats
    blue antibes carpet

    Its pretty solid as well

    I have an update on my redtop van , managed to save up some money and take it to the local bodyshop which a mate of my dads runs so he dont charge me top dollar if i get any bits done

    The previous owner had sprayed the bumpers black but the paint was starting to come off so i had those resprayed and they sealed the gap on the front bumper between the bumper and the splitter so it looks like its part of the bumper and not just like its been screwed on with a couple of self taps The grill had broken on one side but the bodyshop had a brand new one lying in their store room (i couldnt believe this until they showed me it) so i had that sprayed blue and fitted





    The side skirts had paint coming off them as well and they had been attached with mastic so i got the proper clips and then had those sprayed in matching satin black

    The van had a mk1 SR/GTE spoiler which was black but i prefer them to be colour coded so that was sprayed in blue then sprayed with laquer to make it shiny



    The wing mirrors had small holes drilled in them and had LEDs in them for the side repeaters but i cant stand that sort of thing so i sourced some wing mirror covers and also had those sprayed in blue then laquered



    The whole van then had the paint compounded to bring the colour back up



    Also when i bought the van it had a soppy little tailpipe but i wanted something with a bit more girth so i fitted this ashley backbox



    I have a GSi dash, electric windows, cav slabs and calibra leathers to fit next and should have it out on the road in early spring fingers crossed
