Too short for my liking.

Plus, £11,500 could get you either a GTR33 or Supra TT with change. And if thats not your thing then you're looking at the cheap end of the American Muscle range, or the pick of the upmarket eurobox range such as Audi and BMW.

TBH if I had a £11.5k to spend on a car, a Nova is the last thing I'd be looking for.

[edit] Just had a scan of Autotrader. £11.5k would get you:
1985 Rolls Royce Silver Spirit
2006 Ford Mustang V6
1999 Caterham Seven
1971 Jaguar E-Type
2000 Marcos Mantula Spyder
1989 AC Cobra Replica
1982 Ferrari Mondial

:D

I did have 10K to spend on a car and i didnt buy a nova, seriously 10k will get some really good and fun cars. I'd be wanting a zillion bhp for that money.

Dod

11.5k. I'd buy 3 E36 M3s and dog the mother****out of them.

i know this car, and it's worth it.

in 2004 full rebuild on the body with all new GM parts. the only things thats still original is the roof. full engine rebuild with better/stronger parts.

its a c20xe on the car papers (there's only 2 licend as c20xe in the netherlands) and it's a '83, so old-timer insurence.

holland isnt as easy as the UK, officialy you need to report youre conversion, then the test it (drive test, brake test, sound ect. ect.) hoping you'll pass, if not, bye bye money and all the car papers and you need to test and pay again.

thats why lots of people drive illegaly with a valver over here. when they are involved in an accident, they are screwed. getting it on paper to be a c20xe or let cost you about 400 pounds. the fact that he got it on paper to be a c20xe shows that this is 100% perfect nova.

one day . . . i will drive/build a legal c20xe nova . . .
