it does say casa nova at the bottom of the door/quarter but is in white so cant see on phone pics lol

so i went inside the shop, and only one customer... quiuckly grew some bollocks and asked the girl if it was hers and she said yeh. so i said when you come to sell it i will buy it off you, and she took my number and i got hers. i cant stop thinking about this car lol.

can anyone please inform me on these cars.

Looks exaclty like Matt's nova ski, i reckon its just a model the dealership decided to sticker up to make it look more fussy to potential buyer as most know people are more likely to buy a "special edition" of anything over a standard one cos "its special innit" lol

Man that it one dodgy special edition, lol worth buying for its rarity, and obviously because its an early model its the best looking nova shape they did.

That car has the dealers name from swindon in the back of it also i can remember the car from around here as my mate was looking at the gears on his bike on are way to school and when he looked up he ended on the bonnet of it.
this was way back in 1989 is so it was very new then.
What is the last 3 letters on the reg mate.

Matt

Sorry, but I have only the info that is on the 1-sided info sheet. Interior trim is grey, would say that it is the Base trim

Its got a silly sticker on it.... its rare :wtf: Mines rare cos its got a 1400 fitted and some other **** forced into it.

surely its rare because no one on here has one, not many people know they excist, and they were probably made in low quantitys, does this not make it "rare"

and

aw06 if you have nothing good to say, say nothing at all.

I think by rare he means, not many made/left. You know, rare.

aw06 yours is a 1.2 merit/ base model, there were tonnes of them made.

AlexW
06-05-09, 10:20 PM
Yer, but thats nowt to say that one wasnt just shuved full of bits from the dealer.

only problem yes is could be rare but if u want to make it "mint" that means new doors/wings paint doors wings quarters since ur doing wings may aswell do bonnet to get good colour match since ur doing most of the car u should do the roof and boot, that means decals off which means its not as special as anyother then lol

by this understanding a sport undergoing a restoration would be a basic 1.3 with twin carbs as they were all delete code options from a base model:thumb: i know sports were a limited run of 500 ish to go rallying but im guessing theres a lot less casanovas lol for obvious reasonslol
