Ive been away from the Nova scene for quite some time now, as i had left the country a couple years ago, came back, and since then ive had a Cavalier.

Im possibly picking up another Nova in replacement for the Cav on Friday, and ive been putting in lots of internet hours looking for bits etc etc. This will be my 5th Nova.

All i can say is, how much better are Novas for dicking about with?? A cheap 2nd hand suspension kit for a Cavalier is ~£200, in comparison with a Nova, not even ~£100. And this is the trend throughout a list of parts!

Cannot wait!
