Seen this car recently, still sitting in his garage, pretty much the same as these pics! The second Nova to run 17's after Andy Jeffer's Turbo?

Keith

it was only a 1.6 at the time... i have the max feature and png poster of it

Marcus's nova never had a 1.6. It started life as a 1.3SR in helious blue, and then he fitted an XE on 45's, 17's, GSI kit etc and had it featured in Max, front cover car!

Keith

i was talking about Andy Jeffer's one

I remember it - wasn't he a chinese lad? Ricks interior came out of it did'nt it. Will have a look!!

Spot on mart- 'Chinky Dave' lol. It was parked next to beasties i think.
Ricks interior came out of it, and his original valver lump and some other bits.
Breenys red turbo used to be his too- he bought it as a replacement when the valver was shunted from behind and written off.

Pics would be awesome cheers andy.

Ive got a whole new box of pics and stuff to go through too- ill dig out some more- been to most of the shows in the last 4/5 years so a nice variety.
Ive just found some disposable cameras from a couple of years back which are undeveloped. Lol

I've tried to do them in chronological order, getting older towards the end, but I may have got a few mixed up.

And these are my final images, taken from a Max Power feature back in 1994. The magazine actually had no porn or ladies in it, and was actually about modified cars with power, rather than those with bolt on fibreglass...ahhhh, them were the days :)

It was awesome!, that was my first year at Trax - was blown away by the quality of your car, untouchable.

Well apart from my mate Ian Holmes's who beat Gary in the Best kept car competition.
But for such a highly modified car it's excellent, and looks so factory!!

look forward to seeing it at the shows - you going to Wicksteed next weekend?

I know the 2 guys standing next to Pete Neal's car in Ricks last pic (the two on the furthest left)
The guy with the jacket with orange band is a mate called Kev Knights and the guy next to him is Ben who ended up buying the GSi they are standing next to looking at (Pete Neal's one!!)
:lol: :o

RJM25R
13-07-04, 08:38 PM
That's when Pete Neal was selling it! Good memory!!

Your mate got ripped buying that though! Dodgy car had been bumped more than a dodgem LOL!!!

Whatever happened to that car????

Jules
13-07-04, 11:26 PM
He kept it for a couple of years then sold it to a local 16 year old (with rich parents) for a staggering ?4500 - the kid then passed his test and promptly messed it right up - nudges, scratches, dents, kerbed alloys, exhaust ripped off and left hanging, broken headlight etc etc etc..............
Probably ended up either being scrapped, wrapped around a lamppost or hopefully brought by someone and rebuilt - but I doubt it very much!!
:roll:

14-07-04, 08:39 AM
I drove to Bedford in 1995 for Pete Neal to fit a unique splitter and some subtle grey Coutenay graphics to my white 1.2 GSI looker. He did a spot on job and only charged me ?40 for the splitter, fitting, and the graphics.. He was a nice guy. Then he started hanging around with Maff Searle and the other PNG big-knobs and a couple of years later started charging ?120 for the splitter!!!! I know a lot of people fell out with him after that...

Good looking car though!!!

Well,

I've finally got my finger out - I couldn't let Marland or DIY Dave steal all the limelight

Here's the first Nova Turbo I ever saw - never seen it in the flesh - taken from Fast Car in July 1995 -

Here's the engine bay - somewhat functional compared with todays cars!!

I have also found this from Fastcar December 1995 - yummy three spokes - this was their project car made from a boggo 1.3 SR :

What about this thieving pikey's nova???????????

http://img41.photobucket.com/albums/v126/RJM25R/25741c5e.jpg

Couldn't give 2 fucks what's happened to him or his Nova - I just know that those very wheels are now my very own wheels!!
He tried to rip me off with them (And to an extent he succeded) but at least I got my stuff off him - Unlike a lot of people.

I'd say it's any Nova that you saw and thought "I'm gonna get a Nova and do that to it" or any Nova that was a insperation for you wanting / getting a Nova - basically anything that inspired you in anyway or just any Nova that you think is special.
That's what my take on it is anyway.

RJM25R - I recognise that last batch of pictures.... Similar to the one's on Novalution.......... I even recognise the water mark on my camera on the pics of Marks Harrisons Nova Turbo. :wink:

Last I heard his nova was up for sale. To make way for a new project.

Yeah I believe it is the same one Keith, he done Nick Caro's Nova (Or some of) I believe aswell as loads of the NW Nova's.
I might of posted pics of Adrian's Nova earlier in the thread, if not then it's in my next batch of pics that I need to scan - maybe I'll do it this weekend if I get the chance.

I'll be uploading 129 pictures tonight that I scanned and resized today, I won't do it yet as I'm gonna go see what Doom3 is like and also my Missus is playing CoD online and all the uploading will kill her ping (Even on 1.5MB).
I'll post them in no particular order other than the numerical order that they are named in, and I'll post 10 pics per post, so expect 13 posts from me tonight with plenty of pics.
Some Nova's have probably been seen before in this thread but I've tried to not make it too many, most of the Nova's are ones that people won't think are much 'special' and some (Admittedly not many) are big bodykitted things and won't appeal to everyone, most however have taken the subtle route and are just simple and tidy.
There's also a very very old of Chris Tunnicliffe's Nova mixed in there somewhere, Beastys LET pre-private plate and also Proby Walsh's Nova at Max Live '98 (I think it was - with white 15" rims) and probably a few more 'known' Nova's aswell.
All pics are scans from photo's that I've personally taken down the years and as such the quality of some isn't great, but they are better than nothing.
I think I'll not be posting anymore pics in this thread until I get the stack of camera films developed in which case I might have some more pics to put up, but for now I'll let others contribute!!
:wink:

Watch this space later tonight / early morning.

Anyway - Doom3 is calling.......

No order and some won't be seen as 'special' but here they are anyway.
Ths first one is my old black NovaT40 as it was when I got it (There are 3 more pics of it midway through the pics showing what it was like when I sold it - C702 MJB)
Here we go......

Jules wins this thread hands down.. especially sa there all his own photo's!

Some of them bring back some memories.. others were before my time!

Noticed Rami's reshell in there, Dave Liu's turbo before he smashed it up and Chris T when he had 15's and a 2.0 8v! I remember CHris coming down to a Milton Keynes meet in it and taking everyone for blats around the carpark! lol

Glad you like the pics peeps, It's not about winning or losing the thread for me as I'm just glad I can share the pics with those that want to see 'em.
IMO this thread should really be sticky'ed so it's always there for people to view easily as I get the impression that this thread is gonna go on and on and become something of a legend - who knows how many non-NL members have come here just to view it!!

Peester - I think I've probably got more pics on some films I've never got round to having developed, I doubt very much that they are as old as those ones above, but until I get them developed I'll never know!!

Benn - I don't have any more pics of it I'm afraid (I assume you mean the black one with the white mutlispoke rims?) I think that was only only show I saw that particular car at.

Rami's reshell was gorgeous, and when those pics were taken (at VBOA) there were 3 silver GSi's all pretty much next to each other, the L reg one (Not Jason Husdons), Rami's and mine resh from the bodyshop.
One of the other 2 had something I've never seen before or seen since in a Nova - a fold down rear center arm rest!! I think it was on the L plate one. :o

Dave Liu's turbo before he smashed it up

Is that the red one with the red/black leather/alcantara interior?
I'm assuming that's where the seats for yours and now Ricks came from?

Gorgeous car - what happened to it (Apart from him smashing it up!!) - how did he do it? What damage? etc etc
Hope he was OK.

Breeny
15-08-04, 04:15 PM
Yes it is Jules.. and yep thats the interior thats now in Ricks.

If I remember right what he told me was he locked up in the wet and crashed it.. he reshelled it (into the shell that i bought - although I kinda regret that decision lol) but he never got it back on the road properly. Freak will probably tell you better as he's good friends with Dave.

Rami's new shell was indeed lovely, I remember he'd just had the entire interior retrimmed in very nice black leather. Still dont know what he's upto these days..

Sept 17th, 18th & 19th at the Billing Aquadrome just outside Northampton.
It's the best event of the year in my opinion.
VBOA is an all Vauxhall (Bedford & Opel) event - hense the name, and it's huuuge!!!

Ok, I've uploaded all 550+ pictures that still work on this thread to a thumbnail gallery.

If you continue to post your old skool pics here I'll update the site everynow and then.. or alternatively if you zip up your pics and mail them to me (especially if theres lots!) G_Breen@Yahoo.co.uk (Thats got the biggest inbox size of all my email accounts)

Its only taken me nearly 3 hrs.. and think I've got RSI now from saving all the pics lol Hope its all ok :)

Click HERE (http://www.Breeny.Co.Uk/NLOldSkool)

Just checked and some don't work cos they have a space in the filename, will sort it out tomorrow..

Yeah, Howell.

Sie did a good job and really looked after it. It was a minter when he sold it to Andy Hampson (who you bought it off i beleive?) but Andy just ragged it. I had a dabble with him in my valver (the purple one from the north west, was RFX 312W then) and he drove like a maniac, going on the wrong side of the road past bollards in the middle! He drove it full-pelt everywhere!
