I havent driven it since 20th November (ish) And I really really want to go and drive it. It taxed MOTd and Insured, but I need to change the bushes in the tie roads and balljoints, and I just cant get the motivation to do it!

Not driven mine for a few days - It'll be back out tomorrow hopefully for a wee run to keep everything moving

Pointless having it there sitting doing nothing when it could be used regularly

Probably not to be honest, you have an Evo as an everyday car, even a C20LET Nova wouldn't compare in my opinion, not on performance, just in comfort and drive-ability.

well i really want a R34 GTR but house is logical next step

nova wins imo, until i drive it lol

Haven't really driven mine properly for a while, need to go visit lee and do the hub and gearbox before I can use it properly.

I do like driving the celica but that needs suspension work at the moment. Doh

03-01-10, 04:51 PM
Yeah, I am. I miss looking at it too, as it's being stored at a friends house until we move at the end of January. I don't miss the yellow one, it's almost as though I don't own that one at all as it has been sat in the garage out of sight and never been on the road... Just collecting bits for it at the moment. I have been up in Manchester and Scotland over the festives though, Dougie drove up in his Belmont, so I haven't driven at all in 2 weeks :( except for that 10 mins on NYE, so the Mr could have a few drinks.

I cannot wait to drive the Novas in the summer :thumb: if only I could drive both at once...

I kind of miss mine at the mo, its got no engine. But its also nice driving a corsa b with air con and power steering and its just a corsa so not the end of the world if i stack it in the ice lol

Exactly! Driving my lovely comfy aircon'ed tigra with pas is much better than driving nova. But novas put a smile on your face, I miss mine but **** am i going out in the cold working on it!

Yeah they do, but so does my van TBH. Used to rally my Nova down the lanes without a fear of stacking it, but I do the same in my van & couldnt give a fcuk if I stack that either lol
