Brown 1985 XE Nova Saloon Cover Car

[Count Vaux Alot]

Its a sad day but the time has come to sell my Saloon. I have achieved what i wanted to achieve with the car (the cover car shoot in retro cars magazine) bud sadly can't justify keeping it any longer as i have other commitments (a house deposit and another project on the go) as well as the need for space so its up for sale!

Here is my project thread detailing all the work carried out on the car http://www.pngclub.com/forum/showthread.php?t=92350

The car its self is in very good condition, its very individual and draws lots of attention (like a brown nova saloon with an xe under the bonnet wouldn't!) i'm sure it will be even bigger in the show season of 09 now its been featured.
It is possible to get the car silly low due to the rear turrets if you so wish.
There is plenty of scope to better the car imo such as air ride a re trim etc etc.

I'm looking for £4500 with 6 months tax and 6 months MOT any questions please feel free to ask - i am open to sensible offers.

Thanks for all your support through the build and i hope the new owner gets as much enjoyment from the car as i have had.
