    From the picture of the car, it tells me it's not a 3k car. Just something simple like the missing GSi badge on the door tells me a story. Fair enough, it'll be difficult to get a Nova nowadays that hasn't seen a bit of paint at some stage in it's life, but the fact that someone wasn't bothered to spend a tenner on a decal says a lot!!!!

    Oops, I can't see it in that picture though.

    It'll probably end up here and they'll be looking 5k for it though!! You wouldn't believe some of the Novas that sell over here for 2k+++!!

    seriously, if it was mint you would have paid ?3000 for it?

    jesus christ! more money than sense to be honest.

    you can find mint, boggo spec novas for under a grand, then you'll have 2 grand left over to spend on it,......surely a better option?

    Would never be a classic though....would never have GSi on the log book etc....

    If it'd been perfect i'd have payed ?3k yeah...

    Looking ever more likely like i'll do another build, looks for fun for a start

    Dont start on this again please! There is another thread that somone bangs on about the price of novas blahhhh blaahhhhhhhhhhhhh

    IT IS WORTH WHAT SOMEONE WANTS TO PAY FOR IT!

    End of.

    I would pay ?3k for a genuine mint Gsi. As would other ethusiasts SRimon has proved this and driven 200 miles to prove another point...

    It makes my blood boil that this 'trader' tool has no idea and for some reason hasnt realised that a rotten chassis rail doesnt bode well with someone who is spending ?3k potntially! I think he got off lightly.. I would have got a screwdriver out and made the hole 6" longer!

    Why are you on here

    ?500 for a nova or any car is sod all. Would be considerd a run around for that price. Ive had 3 or 4 nova's around the ?500 mark for just a run about. A real ethusiast that are on this site would pay over ?1500 - ?5000 any day if its the one they really want!
