Ill post pictures up as soon as i can.

Anyway picked my nova up in febuary. its a 1992 luxe plus 1.2i. i got it originally whilst i do my micra project car but once the micras done il swap them over and hopefully get the nova upgraded. i got it for 63k with full vauxhall service history up to 2008 and 59k. all original inside only a tiny amount of rust on drivers rear arch. unfortuanatley the previous granny drive used the "if you havent hit it your not close enough " philosophy so i havent yet found a panel with a large dent or gouge or 3. anyway havent done much to it yet save some 4 clock dials. got a mate stripping a tigra soon so might be getting bits off that including the x14xe although its at 120k and im a nissan guy so not sure on vaux. is it worth putting a high mileage in if its virtually free? ran fine before coming off the road ?

been a while had the car good few months now. havent done anything to it except 4 clock dials as been working on other projects. my other cars almost road legal now so not really sure what to do with this really as seems a shame to get rid of it but at the same time i dont want it to turn into something ill never finish anyway pictures:
