Laser Blue Mk1 Nova Diamond

[Crossy]

Well after finally giving into the urge for Nova no.5, after 6 years without owning one, I have finally bought a G plate Nova Diamond.

The car was taken off the road a few years ago by the seller and stripped for paint. He was mucked about and i think its been painted 3 times to get to its current state. The paints not the best still, but its fresh enough and more importantly, its solid.

It is laser blue, currently has a full Gte kit, with sideskirts and bumper splitters painted BMW grey mettalic.

Plans are to refit the mint blue/grey Sri interior, the sideskirts, bumpers are now fitted, Avo coilovers, Speedline Allesio's, all new brake and fuel lines, Magnex system, new tank, big brake setup, all new rear brakes, and flatten and polish the paint.

And then decide what engine, will be either a c16xe,x16xe or another c20xe. All depending on what becomes available when its ready to be fitted.

I'll update some pics once i collect the car this week and get it home.

Heres some pics for now

It is that mate. Looked at a few and never bothered because they always needed a bit much work. Went to look at this and had to have it. Should take shape over the next month or so.
