Too old to own a Nova?

[Benn]

I think it's more an age appropriate thing to be fair. I'm in an A4 Quattro and it seems more appropriate than a Nova and if that's the case I'm thinking, should I even own a Nova?

Appropriate? Why? Does that really matter?

I dunno, maybe I'm being a tool but imagine going to the school to pick up 2 of your kids in a Nova.

Our nova done school trip (2 kids) many 100's times. Secondary school was lot further away so annual nova mileage shot up.

I’m imagining it, but I don’t have any children so they’d be happy in this world I live in

It comes down to how people want to be seen. An Audi A4 is only more age appropriate because you feel that is what you want people to see you in.

I'm 35 and a Corsa B is my project / weekend car and I drive it to work all the time in the summer, couldn't really care less what people think, my wife doesn't car and thats pretty much the only opinion I would listen too.

Too old, hmmm.
Mine is a full blown stage rally car, my other toys are a 911 and GT6.
And my age, well the Queen was still a teenager when I was born.

( Your only as old as the person your feeling )

Nice car ownership you have, get some pictures up please

[Southie]

The way I look at this is that if you enjoy a car at any age it doesn’t matter, plenty of people won’t like a car you have because they might think “well that’s a shit car” but sod them is what I say, if I had another Nova now I’d still love driving one.... plenty of wasted cash over the years has been spent for me on them but the memories I’ve had with my friends and the stories I tell won’t take that away from me

i never owned a gte or gsi and to this day I’d still love one regardless of my age.... I made plenty of basic Novas quick and that was the enjoyment for me.

GSi ownership isn't all it's cracked up to be. Although I owned mine for the longest out of all my Nova's, it was the lardy one of the 4, heavy doors, loads of sound deadening. But it still had that iconic badge on the side.
The current car on the other hand. Weights as much as a crisp packet and now has all the GSi roll bars on so hands has well and feels as quick (as I remember) as the GSi, just runs out of steam at about 40mph. Lol

I own an A4, and i can safely say the aforementioned is totally inaccurate been Novaless maybe 10 years now.

Ive owned A4 since i was about 27ish. I saw the light & realised small modified hatchbacks arent good for doing 25~30k miles a year in . I dont have the time, space or time for having 2nd cars as toys only as tools for mashing miles on now tbh.
