hi i am new to this club and i will be buying a nova next year fingers crossed this will be my first car as these apeal to me and insurance is very cheap on a 1.2 cheaper than a 1.0 with the few mods i want but this car in the link is what i draw my inspiration and appart from the lazer blue sr my favourate nova but i was wondering are these the nova wheels or cav expression? i know these are not champion as my dad has 3 astras inc a champ and exclusive which both have these wheels and can spot champ so what are they?
just found out the i cannot post links yet but sombody may have seen it it was a white mk2 with a mk1 front end with these wheels and a redtop on ebay a few days ago and been on piston heads i have the link but cannot post it.

Welcome to the madhouse :)

The wheels on xe Dans are expression alloys, the same as shaun_donnell has on his yellow saloon.

Hmmm, upon further googling it looks like i am incorrect as the grey tab next to the GTE decal is the second stripe and they look the same as others so i apologise for MY fail lol
