Hi Folks,
Does anyone know how many nova antibes were made? And any guess's as to how many surviving examples there are?
Cheers
Not sure on figures, might have to get in contact with the DVLA i suppose
Tina's got one though!

Just something I was thinking about, You rarely see any these days, especially standard, just wondering how limited the run was, maybe they are rarer than a Nova sport now?

I've just checked the original brochure for the antibes and it doesn't say how many were made, it just gives the specs and the four colours
Andy, imo yours needs the Antibes stripping down the sides and boot :)

I seriously doubt it kieth.
Theres several round here, old people, and one young lad in one.
And I sell the blue carpets for £100 a throw, so £75 for a clean car isnt too bad lol

i always liked the Antibes, kinda a poor mans SR (back in the day). They came in the cool colours anyway.

Definately lol
spoiler, dials, steering wheel - that about it...although it did have the unique seats and carpets
My mates just picked up a very clean red antibes from an old boy who has had it garaged for ten years, he rang me up and said i got a nova with a red carpet is it worth anything lol

I had an antibies crushed when no one wanted to buy the project lol
it wasnt really an antibies anymore anyway.... no interior, no body markings etc lol
'back then' it was just another nova really.
Suppose its not like you were killing an early SR etc...
Pics of Mine coming shortly..
The e-bay one or Stevens?!
they came in white, red, blue, and metallic grey. i would love one, and a club, and a dart, and a diamond, and a pearl.........
Anyone got some proper pics of one? Outside and interior if you please.
The earliest pics of my first car (now Tinas) - A late version in metallic grey, iirc the flat colours were mostly on D plates
Only changes here were -60mm, SR front bumper & grille, and cloth headrests
