Just Seen This Little Gem

[Tommy_nova]

Just poped to tesco to get afew things and seen this little gem parked outside the entrance it put a smile on my face to see it sat there gleaming :) took afew pics to show you guys.

The owner came out so i asked her if she had owned it since new and she replyed yes im 88 years old she replyed i dont need a new car iv never had any problems with this one the cars only used for the shoping runs and is kept in a garage with a very low 36000 on the clock its a true gem on a F plate :) i asked her if she would sell she laughed and said i wont be driving for much longer but if you give me your detail il get back to you if i ever want to sell fingers crossed ay :) .

[L14MNP]

Pleased you had yours with you dude. Means she knows you're serious about Novas and aren't just looking to make a quick few quid out of her. I'd say you will be the first she rings if/when she wants shot.

[Nova_Tek]

lol would be funny if she signs up to PNG then Ban her for using txt type lol

[Tommy_nova]

haha thats pretty funny if i see here again il hand her a png flayer

[muzzy]

At least she was friendly, most people would just think you were a complete weirdo lol. Looks like a nice base and well looked after.

[Rysee]

Looks a great little motor, love the colour! as always with lazer!

I spoke to a women with an X reg fiesta, she was happy to tell me loads about it and that she'd had it from new with no trouble, she quickly got in there that she'd never sell it haha

[Spudly]

Perfect base for a decent psecced XE or LET imo, good solid shell and i hope you do get called up about it rather than her passing on and it going to waste by being scrapped in or something!

[Tommy_nova]

yea thats what i was thinking time will tell tho hopefully il get the call and it can be my new project

[Bubba]

ideal for a LET and mk1 conversion imho
or a raly car




(wonder if damper is flameproof)

*edited for those with taste* ;)

[Tommy_nova]

aha ^^ id keep it mk 1 anyway

[Bubba]

hmm im not sure why i left it as a mk1 conversion when its already is....oopsy :p

[floydy13]

theres an old girl who drives a white mk2 around my way, had it from new, its a bit battered unlike this blue one, but its funny when you see them! i felt well out of order when i asked her to let me know when she sells it!

[Nova_Tek]

I've just remembered there's a very clean 4dr Nova loon MK1 IIRC down my road but I haven't seen it for a while I'd assume its locked up. Again owner is middle aged.

If i had spare cash then soon as I see a clean example I'd be asking to buy it but unfortunately I don't :(

[Logical Improvement]

There's an identical one owned by the receptionist at a Pug-rot garage in Chester. I think I upset the sales man who asked me if he could help. I told him I was after buying a car - eyes light up- any particular one, sir ? Yes the blue nova in the staff car park, if you'll kindly point me to the owner. At which point the receptionist burst out laughing. Not for sale ever. Sales man walks away in a huff. Like I'd be interested in a French car ever. (okay maybe a 205 GTi)

I give them my business card and tell them to phone me if they want to sell ever.

Bought a mk2 cav sri about 10 months after I gave a bloke my card. £40.

[nova danny1]

looks like a very good example,if shes got your number then i think she will definetly sell it to you because oap's remember things like that.

[LEWI007]

Liam - Sunderland metals FTW lol

[Tommy_nova]

haha lets hope so
before she passes on or goes in a home and the fam scrap or sell on

Nice find, theres a few coffin dodger novas round here, my eyes are on all of them! lol

Was after a mk1 c plate Jamaica SR for years but cant get hold of the old gal who owned it, either she has passed on, or her grand kids have it, shame was so so nice, but i got my mk1 Jamaica in the end, just not an SR.
