picking up my new nova tomorow/do you all think its worth it..

[matty-1990]

Hi everyone im new to here:) ive had a few novas in the past! but i am buying a 1.0 nova with 25,000 miles 3door in glacier white mk1 e reg. I have looked round it and i have found 1 bit of rut scab which is at the bottom of the drivers door underneath which you carnt see only if you look right under the door! but it has already been treated.All the boot floor,rear arches,front panel,sills and underneath are like brandnew and have never been fillered or painted! So i was just wondering is it worth the £900 i am paying for it??

it has a full years mot and 3 months road tax

please get back to me with your opinions people thanks:thumb:

£900 for a 1.0 better be immaculate for that!

ive had a c20xe nova expression mk2 which i sold around a year ago and i got rid of my mk2 1.2 which was a project but never finished!

And yeah it is immaculate just 1 tiny bit on it as i mensioned previously..

i know the value of cars as i deal in them every day but im not up on the novas tbh! dont get many going round here!

[matty-1990]

[Connor]

The way Nova prices have been recently,
If its a minter then it is worth £900 all day
BUT it has to be immaculate!!

Whats your plans with it anyways matty??

[matty-1990]

well in my eyes it is... was planning on white cesaros which i have! 60mm lowering kit and just keep it really clean and tidy.
Then after christmas i will look out for a decent c20xe engine or i might go for a nice 8v!
i would really like a nice interior for it too if one pops up!

[Connor]

yeah ok fella!

Keep thinking that!

So it would be worth 2 grand as a 1.2?

Worth every penny of £900!!

[matty-1990]

yeah ok fella!

Worth every penny of £900!!i thought that too looking at the condition of it! im not gonna loose my money im pretty sure i would get it back easily enough plus some on top, they are hard to find these days in decent condition...

[brainsnova]

£900 is fine but still try to knock it down a bit :D

[Connor]

All i was saying is the >>>>IMO<<<<<
i would not pay £900 for a average 1.0
it would have to be immaculate!!
But that is my opinion!!!
And no i didn't say it would be worth 2K if it was a 1.2 :wtf:

[dj_wudgey]

id say its worth it!!

No fella, sounded like you said it wasn't worth £900 as it was a 1.0, it's the shell doors bonnet boot and wings that are worth it IMHO!

[draper]

900 for a 1.0l ? bugger that lol

[Connor]

Matty you got this yet??

[Pete]

id like to see pics of it, for £900 it best be good lol

[matty-1990]

Matty you got this yet??yeh ive picked it up and i am very impressed with it just been cleaning it and as i say the drivers door at the bottom only spoils it! but apart from that it is spot on:) im guna take some pics tomorow and post them up on here...but i need at least 15 posts to do that!? my friend has just been up with his brother and offered me 1200 for it but i want to keep it and get it mint for pvs e.c.t:thumb:

[vaughanmc]

Should be a good one to see if it's only a door that's letting it down :thumb:

[matty-1990]

can anybody recomend any good suspension at a decent price?? i had g-max springs and shocks on my corsa valver and they was spot on!

[vaughanmc]

Put the same on again if you like them mate :) I have them on my daily runner Nova and there not too bad for the price

Going to try and get some Bilstein's for my 1.3 T40 Nova though :)

[vaughanmc]

Not bad price for coilovers I think :) You'll get what you pay for I suppose

Paid £90 for a -60mm GMAX kit 2nd hand a few years back and it's still going strong and makes the car look better than standard junk

[Connor]

If you got spare monies for the coilovers get them,
otherwise get a gmax kit or similar and then save up for some decent coilovers.
Matty if you want me to upload the pics send them to me via email.
I will PM you my email addy :thumb:
