[dannymcc]

Just seen this http://belfast.gumtree.com/belfast/93/63067693.html . (http://belfast.gumtree.com/belfast/93/63067693.html)
6k and the reg doesnt come with it :eek: bit steep IMO

[brainsnova]

the etched comment is now useless lol

[Connor]

I have the exact same model,
i payed 350 lol
mine is well............... not on that condition

[Edd]

Stupid and unrealistic price

[Jack]

Location, Location, Location.

Its in NI, so that instantly adds a few £k on the price.

Would I pay that much? No. Take a zero off the end and I'd at best consider it - at the end of the day its a poverty spec 1.2 which needs new tyres and probably has a seized engine.

[loggyboy]

[Homer]Mmmmmmm .....19 year old tyres............. safe[/]

[MK999]

is it just me that thinks it could be a typo because 600 actually makes sense?

[Edd]

Deffo £600 as it's a mk2 lol

[bainyboy sr]

i say it worth around 2k cos of the condition , the only cool thing abot that add is its in a vauxhall showroom

[Edd]

All these low millage Nova's coming up forsale lately are NOT worth it IMO

Original tyres ? Like that's a selling point lol there going to be fooked and will need replacing

Brake calipers/drums likely to be fooked too,

But if you've got mugs paying the prices they will continue to rise.

[Shaun]

see i got silly emails and offers when i put my let nova up for 5k...

however there very different and struggle to see how a standard 1.2 worth so much in any condition.

[Edd]

£5k is a realistic price for a high spec well built let nova like yours Shaun

But is not for a poverty spec 1.poo mk2 lol

[Shaun]

lol true edd, hows the sport coming along?

Looks like i 'might' be keeping mine now aswel lol

[Edd]

Sport is slowly coming along, got college for a few hours today then I might do a bit on it.

Good chap keeping yours, just think if you got rid of it and wanted another how much would it cost you to build it again ? lol

...... and you would end up wanting to build it again lol

[Shaun]

i would dread to think how much it would cost to do it again lol

I've noticed this about N.I. cars - why is this? :confused:

[MattBrown]

probably has a seized engine.


Why the **** would the engine be siezed?

Its a mental price, does that make my 10k nova worth twice the price?

[Shaun]

you got any pics of this 10k minter you keep on about?

[amggsi]

If he gets 6k for that, I should have no problems getting 4.5 for mine!!!

It's had the arches played about with, and paintwork, so not just as original as he is making it out to be, but by no means a bad car by any stretch of the imagination!

[waynes sri]

if they get 6k i want bout 8k for my sri then lol

[MattBrown]

you got any pics of this 10k minter you keep on about?

Yes thankslol

Its at my grandads (Not the unit)

Need to get it out, wash it, and take the forsale pics:thumb:

[Jack]

If its only done 22k, thats about 1.2k a year, 24 miles a week. Barely enough to warm it up each time it goes out, so it would be running on a poorly lubicated engine with cold oil. Either that, or its been stood for a very very long time doing nothing. Or worse, both (stood for ages, then a long trip, then left to do nothing for a long time - repeat)

Its a 1.2 ohc 8v engine.

Hardly a b18c or anything complex lol

Itll be fine:)

Mine has done 11.3 miles a week:d

However, I see the point about the cold oil, but, if its only been driven from 1000-2000rpm (granny shiftinn:)) then it will be fine:thumb:

[Mieran]

I would expect a LET, F28, LSD, 4 pots and mint bodywork for 6k

[16v Nova Kev]

its naver worth 6k imo
