nice project for someone :D nova diamond full x16xe converson MK1 !!

[jim23496]

hi all, been on here for a while now though i havent posted much :/ basically i bought this nova not long back off a friend with the hope to restore it and get it on the road, but unfortunately due to lack of time and too many projects already i have decided to sell up

the car

its a 1989 H plate nova diamond with a x16 xe engine fitted which runs great :D, the interior has a mk2 dash fitted with mk1 dials which all work, and it has SR rear seats and doorcards with i think GTE front seats though feel free to correct me on this .
the car itself has been used for mainly going to and from shows for about 10 years so hasn't done many miles so has 86k on it.

the modifications are as follows
gay paint job in nasty gold-pink-red may be to some peoples taste
full set of AVO adjustable coilovers
strut brace
X16XE out of a corsa GSI with magnicore leads and i was told it was remapped, no proof of this but it did go well :D
astra 2.0l front brake upgrade with master cylinder
professionally smoothed boot with a popper, really straight not a single dent
it has side skirts and an aftermarket rear bumper (front bumper was ripped off as it really offended my eyes )
MK2 dash fitted
SR interior bar the front seats
delocked doors and all colour coded

the issues
ok so things that are wrong with it are..
there is no exhaust as it got sold on
it requires the front cross member replacing or plating, my mate had started putting a plate on and gave up it also require a small plate int he boot and on a rear chassis leg nothing too major, it has had some plates before as well in the bay but these look ok
there is some bubbling on the rear arches, but aside from that the bodywork is near perfect and straight as they come, there is one dent on the bonnet and a minuscule on on the rear quarter if your being picky the rest is spot on, also the sills and inner arches/ floor pans are perfect not a spot of rust :D

the car has got some mot (around 5 months i will have to check) and 5 months tax though this will get sent off for a refund soon unless i get a tempting offer

im not sure really what to ask for the car so im open to offers, would like to see around £500 from it as thats what it owes me
