Seeing as i couldnt get a decent insurance quote on the Nova due to not having a standard engine, and my driving ban, i decided to get a car to use for winter until i turn 21 in feb, think i might have more chance of getting a better quote on the nova by then, plus it gives me time to get the Nova finished and miss the worst of the weather.

Had 2 dodgy tyres on it when i got it so put astra sport steels on the back, will put the other 2 on when i get decent tyres for them-

Might put the 40mm lowering springs off the nova on it for now and tidy it up a bit, but other than that it'll stay as it is.

Front brake pads were fecked so i put new ones on it yesterday.

Mot ran out today so goes in at half 1, underside looks pretty good, drivers side front chassis leg was plated for its mot last year according to the failure slip. Hopefully it'll pass without needing much done.

Failed its mot at 2.25 on a corroded front chassis leg, 2 front to rear brake pipes, and both front sidelights, got the work done with help from my brother and dad, and got it re-tested at 5.15!
