Sorry for the poor images as they were taken on my fone,.

The Nova is used for Tarmack Rallying and the Escort is used for Forest Rallying, the belong to a buy called Richard Egger who is a very popular guy around me for rallying. his wide arched body on the nova in made out of steel which was hand crafted, they have both had about 30k spend on them. both running 2L, everything upgraded to the max it can go and the best parts they can get on


Thought id share 2 nice looking cars :) :thumb:

Its damaged the actual engine so hes getting a new one fitted, had a major impact on the Ns side panel, and there wernt much of a front panel left,
but he has the side panel sorted and the new engine is ready to be fitted,

He lost the back end and slipped into some tree's and just f****d it :cry:

I've seen the Nova many times over the years on flyers & at the Autosport international show. It used to be white.
