iv decided to sell my nova redtop and make way fora saloon project.

this is a 1989 nova gte in red.

3months tax and 3 months mot.

58000 miles

6 owners from new.

this has had a redtop c20xe redtop engine fitted from a mk3 astra gsi
motorsport hubs and driveshafts fitted capable of 400bhp, solid engine mounts, engine bay fully seem welded and strenghening kit welded in.

the engine i believe is standard with only a k&n filter, ecotec filter pipe and a magnex exhaust system.

iv recently fitted the uprated sump gasket with shortened sump bolts, new oil and filter and iv got a new set of spark plugs that havnt been fitted yet.

the interior is all original in very good condition.

bodywork is in good condition 2 very slight dents 1 on the roof and 1 on the rear quarter. these are very small.

the wheels are black gte steelies with r888s fitted all round and have covered 600miles.
brakes fitted are 2litre gte with grooved disks and green stuff pads

and suspension is spax krypton gas adjustable shocks all round


overall the car is in very good condition for its age, drives well with no engine problems.

BAD POINTS

theres a hole in the centre console where some sort of gage has been fitted before i got the car.

there is no roof lining as the pipe on the sunroof had split and it had to be removed to repair this.

theres is some small paint bubbling on the arches its not serious and could easily be repaired without new panels being fitted.

the car vibrates due to the solid engine mounts being fitted.

if the car dosnt sell by the time the tax and test runs out i will put a new mot on it, 6months tax and have the little dents sorted and the paint bubbling on the arches.

looking for £2250

just to let people know the drivers side headlight looks out of line as i had removed it and not put it back properly.

also every bit of glass, sunroof and the lights are all original with the reg etched on them all

Did you buy it quite recently, because it was advertised as sold on pistonheads, and in a slightly different ad for sale

no i listed it as i was told i was loosing my job, i feared for the worst and put it up for sale. still got ym job now though. my plan was to build this into a saloon but it seems a waste so im going to sell it complete, and maybe start a saloon project
