Its an 'LX' 2.0TDCI with just under 55k on the clock. Really comfortable to drive, needs a few stoneships polishing out, and I have a few things I'd like to add to it, but I'm really chuffed with it.

I'll definately have another nova, as soon as I have the disposable cash for a proper project car.

Are you a Lord?

Very worrying, however its surprisingly quick. It pulls like a train no matter how many passengers or how much load are in it, whatever the gradient :D.

The only exterior changes will be the Ford HID headlights (the full kit retrofitted, but with manual adjustment), and a towbar (lol). Annoyingly the stereo doesn't do MP3's, but there are a few cd changers available that work with the Ford 6000 unit thats in there, so one of those is on the cards, probably a Thatcham cat 1 alarm to bring down the insurance a little and a few other minor bits and peices.

I'll be booking it into the garage this week as it has a 3 month guarantee on it, the rear washer washes the inside of the boot, and when I put the bulb into the bulb holder in the boot the interior lights stopped working, so they can sort that lot out for me :D.
