Looks very nice mate, smashing pics. The 6th pic looks exciting espcecially at 30+mph lol

[Adam]

[L33 LEG]

looks really nice. was looking at your for sale thread earlier and if i didnt have a nova i would snap it up straight away.

im tempted to get mine out this week for some lovely snow pics...

[John]

i can hear it rotting from here lol

Good pics!

[greg1.4]

yeah that 6th pic was actually taken just after stopping from handbraking round the corner..that was how it stopped after beng sideways. whilst doing it i thought it would be a good pic.. lol

Adam, touch wood had no carb freezing yet. (if thats what you were meaning)
It loves the cold air though, goes better!

[greg1.4]

John H, she has been washed and put in my garage tonight.. lol

[Spudly]

It loves the cold air though, goes better!



Thats what Adam meant bud, will adore cold damp air and go like fook:thumb:

[Rich]

make sure you get all those inner arches cleaned out or you will have an interior, engine and wheels sitting on your garage floor in the morning lol

[LEWI007]

1St picture looks class, georgus car you have there mate.

[*Adz*]

Very nice mate :) Looks nice in black!

[pikey1986]

very nice motor, i would love to look out me window and see that placed on my drive

[Nova_Tek]

I never had any carb icing issue with the 1.2 & a K&N with no hot air feed. You prob have to be in Scandinavia to get that shizzle or in 'The day after tomorrow' lol

[mayhem]

you call that snow? this is what i found on my mk1 astra today

http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c341/mayhem22/Foto0288.jpg

[Joe Richardson]

Good pics :thumb:

[liam944nova]

[Leeboo]

Snow is generally for winners.

Daily hack (which somehow still has a handbrake cable)

Only reason the Nova isn't out in the snow:

http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd139/leeberto/DSC04604.jpg

Quite a few of the roads around me are stil snow covered, good craic :d

[mayhem]

all that snow mayhem im getting jealous :(

that's nothing, a mate of mine 150miles up north had 15-20 inches of snow. he had to dig out his nova.

Really? I used to get it all the time with my old hatch. So much so that I once had to put silver insulation tape over all the vents at the front in an attempt to keep the engine warm :(

Here's mine in the rather pathetic snow we had left last night

http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a266/razorjack/Cars/Project%20Ghey/20122009340.jpg

The road behind it had snow, which melted a little in the day, then froze over. Slidey slidey lol

[vaughanmc]

Must be about 3" here now, can't beat it

[Jack]

Must be about 3" here now, can't beat it
Git, had around that much back in feb

Thats more like it :d

[vaughanmc]

lol Can't beat it, when it starts to melt etc it looks terrible though

[Nova_Tek]

Yep, no problems what-so-ever. I was always expecting it to happen which is why I kept a can of de-icer under my seat just in case, but it never came, thankfully. She always started fine too in the freezing cold :)

[novaload1992]

nice :thumb:

[Balley]

Looks a nice Nova mate, is it a GSi? Black FTW...
Heres mine...http://i818.photobucket.com/albums/zz102/balley77/19122009307.jpg

1.2 Merit ;)

[L14MNP]

Was (unfortunately) in Middlesbrough yesterday to collect parts and the guys s14a was 6-7 inches deep in snow. We've had 5-6, but the roads tend to be cleared around here. lol

The industrial estates are still proving fun. ToykYO drifting a LWB Nissan Terrano sure gets some looks. lol

[vaughanmc]

Greg text me earlier to say he was in a wee bump - Knocked one of the wheels out of line

Not sure how serious it is though...

[greg1.4]

nothing too serious..

major pissed off, been having loads of fun in the snow round about here..has been snowy for the last week now and never had a problem..

the minute i go into the local town where there is no snow, i hit black ice! was only doing 16mph (even had time to look while sliding) and smacked into the kerb/centre island..

luckily no damage apart from a scuffed alloy and knocked the wheel back. bent a bottom arm!

i didnt feel as bad when i got my car out the way ans somebody came down behind me and did the same..

didnt make me feel as much as a tit! i could see the point if i had been messing around, it would be completly my own fault.

but as they say "always expect the unexpected"...

[vaughanmc]

Hopefully it's fixable

[sparkie1401]

love it!!!!!!!!!!! like black nova's specially GSi GTE

[Nova_Tek]

Shame to hear about it mate, at least the damage isn't serious. Just a bit of bad luck dude not your fault as like you said you weren't messing about.

Hope it gets fixed soon.

[Rickyb]

them pics look the nutts mate.
and its looking at your pics that make me think i might need a rear wiper.
