I've been using another car for a couple of months now. And I miss my nova so bad. Why the hell are they just so good! Well, they are rather crap actually, but bad in a good way... :tard:

None of above actually, there just plain and utter ****e. Worserer then erm, a really worse thing!!

I figure it like this....... all the Nova's owners must have done some really bad fo'shizzle ma'nizzle in previous life's to end up lumbered with a 1980's passion wagon throwback originally designed on a Master Sytem and refined using Tetris as oppose to AutoCad 1900AD.

lol, dont worry. This topic comes up once a month!

Ive always said theyre like Herpies. You have some fun and then cant get rid of it lol

Personally, I love them for the fact that you cant make a car the same size go as fast for as little money. FACT

I often wonder why you are on here Mike if you hate them so much.

I love wiping the smile off the faces of people who think their car is so superior, plus they are easy to work on and go quite well with a LET in.

That makes two of us lol

EDIT: Wait till your's try several attempts to kill you :thumb: then you'll really start to hate it lol

It does try and kill me every time the chassis leg splits again.

The thing is, and this is also a FACT, is that if you owned a car that was 100% reliable and comfortable, you'd get bored. Therefore car enthusiasts cant own cars like that. They need to stir the soul, and they need to have character, and to have character, they need to be flawed.

Novas have oodles of character lol

Mike

No not as in like that, i mean like, the engine mount tries to eat your skull, the bonnet takes a liking to your forehead, the alternator tears your fingers off, the shell tries to do press up's on your chest....you know, mundane stuff like that lol

I spend most of my time wondering what I'll replace my saloon with.

Probably end up with another Nova. Bugger.

Have you ever wondered that you might not be cut out for mechanical shizzle? lol

Ive often thought this too, and it lead me a conclusion......

Colin Smith must be in the same boat. He, like me, must have got the angries with copias Nova's and decided one sunny morning to rid the world of them all lol

Sounds like the GT4 I had, knew it would start every morning but would still be slow and comfortable and I got bored with that. lol

Yep. The only reason I like the Ovlov so much is because I have to keep an eye on the rev counter when im playing loud music to check the clutch isnt slipping lol

I dread to get in and drive my Nova when its finished. I've been driving a corsa with Koni adjustables and Big wide tyred Cav Slabs and its fun to drive, imagine something better handling and faster. I dont want to like it, I just want to sell all of them.
