Find one of the first XE Novas in the uk for me!
Back in 1999 MW performance on my door step built a red Xe nova from a mint GTE.
It was face lifted, and was sold in 2000 to my friend, who is interested to know where it is.
It was last sold in 2004, it had a colour change to purple in 2009, and the reg was A16VNO.
It's correct reg is G83 UMB
It's still alive on HPI checks etc, 8 owners, one of the first Xe Novas in the uk.
Well if it was converted in 1999, it's not exactly a pioneer.
I realise this, however in 99 they weren't exactly common.
I dunno about that.
1993/94 was about the earliest I can recall them being in magazines.
At around 1999/2000, I didn't buy them anymore, but I do recall the features and classifieds being full of XE and LET converted cars.
Isnt there a web site called where is it now? And you pay for them to find your old car
There were a lot about back then my first was built it a mates garage in 98 using Martin tinker shafts and a car quip mount
told you saloons are the future!!!!!!!
I remember going to donny show in 97 and the place was full of xe novas. It was like spot the stock one! I think Darren Horseman was the first by us to have an xe in a nova circa 95/96. I'm sure it was him that gave lofty the inspiration to stick one in his.
Nick.
Iv got an old fast car mag, sure it's 1990, there's a nova xe in there that must be one of the first, I'm sure it's a sport too, and a couple of months later they featured another White one this time with an xe in the back power g the rear wheels!
Ive got a mag somewhere and im sure it had car quip converted 2litre 8valve nova from around `89.
The black Irmscher kitted Creg nova had a mk1 astra GTE engine fitted back in `85 iirc.
Damn they didn't hang around!Originally Posted by sport
