    Default What should i go for

    Mk 1 or Mk 2 Nova?
    have suddenly got a liking for mk1 SR's all of a sudden, i think its probably the fact there arent alot of mk1 novas around here.

    what you think

    Go for whichever you find in the better condition. If you get a mk2 you can always devolve the front end; or if you get a mk1 you can always swap the interior for a mk2 dash etc so either way you end up with best of both worlds.

    Mk1's look meaner, less girly and are the bestest nova ever made Pmsl :P

    just kidding, Tbh mate it matters non. Get a decent base to work on... Then go which ever way you want with it. Simple Dimple :D

    Personally i'd go for a mk 1 SR with a mk 2 dash, which is what i've done. But its your car and upto you.

    Im a MK2 man myself, IMO the front looks a lot cleaner and up to date, and i REALLY hate MK1 dash boards, but as said, horses for courses.

    Get a picture of both, stick them on the wall and throw a dart at them blindfold. Decision made!
