[Riggy]

[Lee H]

Mines out all year round and its showing its age now.

[Jay]

Mines out every day, taxed it last week come to think of it, £66 ftw!

[dj_wudgey]

mine will be may at the very very earliest!! even though i miss them!!

[muzzy]

I'm aiming to have mine on the road for June/July so i can get some summer driving!

[Riggy]

[Big_Chap]

Mine wasn't away either.

[Lee H]

but what about the proper one lol , when does the tax run out on that one ?

That is the proper one :confused: You aren't talking about the gay turbo thing are you, tax runs out next month, i've driven it twice since I taxed it:cry:

[Adam]

Break it :p lol lol

Only kidding, you really need to get it out and about this year Lee!!!!! :cool:

[Southie]

Well I'm aiming for march but if it's still crud outside then it can sleep a month longer. Poor old girl needs a thrashing lol

[Lee H]

Break it :p lol lol

Only kidding, you really need to get it out and about this year Lee!!!!! :cool:

Saving it for York as probably won't get many goes before something breaks so don't want to waste them lol

[wilson_sri]

Was planning on 1st of March, but looking more like 1st of April. Really need to pull my finger out and get it running again.

[Adam]

I like your confidence in it Lee lol lol lol

[Lee H]

I like your confidence in it Lee lol lol lol

I've known it for 8 years and i'm convinced it doesn't like me for some reason. No idea why with all the money it gets lavished on it :roll:

[Southie]

Think that sums up every nova driver on here lol

[krobinson]

I'll be taxing mine in March for 1 year.

First outing will be towards the end of march.

[Paul]

1st april here

[Southie]

1st april here

Fool :p

[AlexW]

Mine dont need taxing/mot'ing untill september. But its off the road atm, should be finished by the end of the month at the latest.

[Simon 1867]

Mine will be breaking out of the garage for the summer, maybe june at the earliest.

[Jack]

When the tyres get put on, so wednesday hopefully

[L33 LEG]

im hoping my nova will be ready for 1st of march, but maybe a few weeks later. i didnt put it away for winter though, i sold it and now iv bought it and got to fix it Lol.

i got the E30 out last night tho for the first time in nearly 2 months. hopefully the weather will stay clear and i can enjoy it again :)

[Hobbit]

Maybe next year lol

[Rexy]

:thumb: reminds me the clio needs taxing in may lol, so ive got ages off yet.

Riggy, you want it so it lands bang with the show season, if you get it in april, it will last u till the end of sep tracks is around that time isnt it?

[Ernie]

Mine is out being hard core and playing in the snow lol.

[Andy]

I have no idea,depends how long it takes me to find a new job.

[burgo]

mines back out 1st april. the other saloon will be going to pv wether its finished or not aswell

[amggsi]

Mine come back out on the 1st April, and into hibernation at the end of September!

SR is taxed insured and MOT'd at the minute, but I haven't drove it yet with the salt on the roads! If I was driving it everyday it wouldn't matter so much, but there is no point taking it a run, and then leaving it back in the garage with the salt eating away at it.

[Adam]

Mine never went away, its still out now (just not very driveable :p)

[GTE TURBZ]

Playfull months are from start of April to end of September

[Riggy]

lol all about the same then , i did june to end of november laet year ,and still had nice days then .

but mot and insurance is in june so want to tax it before to break cost up , doin all 3 at once last year was a killer

[tom_beverley]

This year some time (hopefully!)

[16xe_chris]

hopefully mine will be out within the next couple of months, once i source more parts, then find a decent rolling road.

[Mike]

I wont be taxing mine until about May 2010 lol

[blue_peg_16v]

ill be taxing the saloon on 1/4/09 and its first proper abuse of the year will be drag racing on may day bank holiday at york

[CoolTiger]

13th march at latest

[vaughanmc]

Mine's is taxed all year round, no point in having it there and it sitting in a garage :)

[Benn]

Normaly mines out all year round, but i thought i'd smooth a bit here and there..

[John]

Normaly mines out all year round, but i thought i'd smooth a bit here and there..

Will it be out for this years shows Benn?

[Benn]

Christ yes, be painted by the end of the month (my old boss is on hoilday, is gonna do it when he gets back)

Then just gotta sort out engines and stuff.

So make sure you come have a lookie and say hello.

[Leeboo]

Make sure the underbody protection is good and waxoyl inside of the chassis!!! Then you can drive it in all weathers!!

just keep an ee on usual places, and keep inside rear arch lips etc clean!

[nick_nova]

1st april im thinking this year. props the best time so can make most of the nice weather :D

[alan b]

i decided this year i wasnt goin to bother giving her a break. ive drove it hard every day since last summer since fitting the let, rain snow or rare sunshine, ah **** it its only a nova it doesnt deserve the garagelol

[dhdev (Oli)]

Was out in mine the other day, blowing the cobwebs away ;) Then it started to snow lol Not the best car for snowy roads so I got homw sharpish lol lol lol

[Shaun_O'Donnell]

I've just sorned the saloon from the 1st March onwards. Will probably get it ONR for the start of July.

Just haven't got the time to take it out, plus, moving offices to our factory and not willing to allow it to be covered in cement dust so no chance of the occasional "use it to go to work" day.

[stuartyj21]

had the car out yesterday for mot and passed yippeee...

[Gemima]

Mine has been sat on the other halfs drive since Sept, passed its MOT in Dec and started using it 1st Feb, drive it everyday 50miles + more reliable then the Fiesta! :)

[Matt]

Mines been sat in the garage since October apart from it's trip to the bodyshop. Will probs be ready to come back out by the end of April.

:)

[ade]

My SR's out all the time - just done 150 miles today looking at houses - supposed to be white - mnore a dirty grey atm...

Need to wash her - upper and under...

[xe Dan]

[craig green]

This month I reckon. Need transport pronto!

Damn salt!

[srs1]

i'm hoping to take mine off the road in the next three weeks.

not sure when it will be out to play again.

[dj_wudgey]

mine will probrably be around pv im going to get my gte out to play first!!

[hybridturbo]

Will tax the escort when the cage is finished and the wheels are back from the painters

Hopefully the end of next month :thumb:

[Rickardo]

it never go's away.. it's a daily driver..

[Jim Mcrae]

mine is still waiting to go in:tard:

[Lee H]

The turbo has been out playing today seen as it's dry! It really upset a golf r32 a couple of times on the motorway too!

[srs1]

good to hear that lee, hehehe

so the cars is being your friend for a change. wish our regional co-ordinator would sort out a meeting soon, could have a nosey around the turbo if its dry

[Lee H]

Still a few more little problems to iron out but pretty happy with it at the moment. Clutch is still slipping in 6th though which is a pain as gearbox might have to come off yet again!

[andybishop]

Think mine will be coming out around May after i've done a few more bits and pieces on it. Miss driving it whenever I want though, but roads are too crappy at the moment.

[krobinson]

I'd like to think the R32 was just a small dot in your mirror!:thumb:

[Lee H]

Was closer than a dot, but i was pulling away quite a bit till I backed off. Didn't change down from 6th though and clutch is slipping, still on standard boost too!

[Gashgusher]

[wilson_sri]
