It was as described and a plesure to do buisness with.
Im not sure what im going to do with this one yet as not sure weather to break or sort out because of all the history that is with it.
I drove it from a carpark near to my lock up to the lock up and it felt so tight and no play in anything and just so retro lol.
it takes me back to the days of my first nova which was a mrk1 sr.
What do you think.

Heard a rumour this was for sale in the local paper down there for £90, my mate thought it was a facelift Mk1 so he never bothered. Pompey obviously got it instead.

25-02-09, 08:21 PM
Christian, your a crazy bugger! I love ya lol

Humm I'm going to say either Sport rep it (as most the sport stuff is with it, seats dash etc)

Or sell the sport orientated parts on,use the money gained and make into a really nice later spec SR.

Just beat me to this, if you want to sell the car complete I'm interested.

Ernie
25-02-09, 11:27 PM
Make me an offer you never know,

And before anybody ask's i didnt get it for £90 i paid over twice that for it.

Ernie

Cheers Scott.

The thing is at the mo not sure weather to.

A) Try and save it my self.

B) Sell it to sombody else to save.

C) Strip it and sell parts for more than what i paid for it.

I know it would be a shame but at the end of the day to me its just a rusty D reg nova that could make many more better ones keep going.

If sombody was to offer me sill money for it complete i would more than likely let it go.

Don't break it, it's to an original car to break, shell it or restore.

Ernie
27-02-09, 05:45 PM
It looks like a new home couild be on the cards for this already.
Just sorting out a few things but i will keep you all posted with whats happening with it.

27-02-09, 08:19 PM
Keep it ya puddin you must want to have a go otherwise you wouldnt have bought it bud lol

Will F
27-02-09, 08:47 PM
wouldnt be worth much in bits anyway.

Nothing is really worth anything? I guess the interior and front bumper may earn a few quid, but thats it?

I may be wrong....

Graeme
27-02-09, 09:38 PM
A shame to break it when you see really nice examples like Royston's and Brettski's that are real crowd pleasers. I say restore it also but if it does get broke I'd like the tailgate

Ernie
27-02-09, 11:04 PM
Its not being broken but it should be back on the road but not by me as carnt be ar5ed with all that. I prefere to start of with a good shell in the start.
