[smithy756]

Hi all!
Basically this is just a random question I was curious about....
How often do you use your beloved nova?
I know some put there's away for the winter some use on sundays only some track days
But how often do you?
Me, I use mine at every oppertunity I can I love having fun in it, I no its not the perfect family car that's why I have
My estate for that :-)

Also for the people who do use there's on a regular what milages would you guess you do in a standard month?

[Connor]

Every day.

[smithy756]

Nice to know I'm not the only one lol, mines more for pleasure driving on a night - weekends ,

[JensonLEI]

Mines a daily, start work at 4 and starts without fail on these cold days, heater matrix is dead though so I have a towel for a demister :)

[Benn]

I try and every mine every day, bar at the mo as its getting some loving.

[SR-Rally]

when theres a rally lol its locked up now and wont be out till first round of welsh champs next year which is feb :)

then theres the 2 other novas which probable wont see sun light for a few years as funds dont allow lol

[grooge]

old nova was used daily, current one will be used daily once its running a bit better.

[pikey1986]

ive not used mine for over a year lol

[JaysNova]

used everyday and driven with primed panels and all.

working on it as much as poss in between

must be racking up at least 500 miles a week in the TD at the mo

[GDN16v]

Once as week if possible!;):d

[Spudly]

I never use mine anymore as its dead lol

[Rob]

i havnt drivin a nova for over a year now :cry: but next year will be different guna try and use one of them as much as possible

[Andy]

Summer use (April-October)
But had 2 engines blow this year so really testing my patience with the fukking thing

[Joe Richardson]

hardly ever use mine,it's off the road now for the winter,and wont be using next year either,it can just stay in the carcoon .

[Pistol Pete]

I havent used mine for about 8 years lol

[Jack]

Semi-regularly. Not so much recently though as its still not running right. And I much prefer driving the Celica over winter.

[Paul]

once in a blue moon!

[phazer]

Summer use (April-Sept) but due to lack of time etc managing less than 500 miles a season these days :(

Really want to take it apart and do a full rebuild but as it stands I'd never get it back together lol

[Royston]

I try and use them both (SR & Sport) from April to October ish, and use them to commute to work when I can, all tooked up now

[scott.parker]

Well.... last time i used one of mine was on the mids meet 10th of October, it runs out of tax this month and the yellow ones got no mot..
TBF i cant afford them anymore.

[Paul]

last time i drove mine was mid august, not drive one til the new ones built now :(

[markc20xe]

use mine everyday after work cos i have a van to go to work then when i go out in the evening it gets used and take for a blast lol

[DEAN-DOHERTY]

i use mine every single day, go to work in it, cruise arond the town at night. up n down the country to see freinds and girlfreind, to be fair it is my only car so the wee nova has not got much of a choice. never gave me any bother yet

[Rob]

hardly ever use mine,it's off the road now for the winter,and wont be using next year either,it can just stay in the carcoon .

why arent you usin it next year ?

[amggsi]

Usually tax one from April to October, but haven't really driven a Nova since I parked the SR in the shed after Billing!

[smithy756]

For all yous who leave them tooked up for the winter, do you still start them up regular? I've owned mine for 12 years and I kept it locked up for 10 years with very little use ( around 4k ) it only this last year I've got it back out on the road just because I never see any around these days now there's 3 driving around my town on a daily basis !!! Typical they all have png stickers in the rear window as well lol

[L33 LEG]

Hardly ever use mine, can see it being in my garage for a year or so untouched now lol

[Adam]

Last drove mine home from Billing this year (July 11th?)
Aint been out since.
Definitely been out less than 10 times this year.

Dont know why i even bother taxing/mot'ing/insuring it tbh. The money in it could be used for much more useful things lol

[mk1nova_rich]

been over 18 months since i last drove a Nova :( with the exception of a 200 yard 'drive' down the road to get some welding done to it.

[Yorkie]

every day, drove it last night from work and will drive it again in approx 1 hour to get to work.

[Bubba]

was everyday...now i rarely see it, its just in bits haha

[Alex J]

[Edd]

Last had one on the road about 9 years ago

The Sport will be ready next year tho

[sport]

Ha ha yeah I also have no heater motor working so its a cool drive on these chilly nights lol hopefully a guy called collin I think it was from here is sorting one out for me :-)
Although it does seem a lot of the club members don't use there cars as often as I was expecting,
Personally I will never leave mine stood for 10 years again every time I'm in it I realise just how much fun they are, & I live life for today not tomorrow :-) thanks to every one who's taken the time to reply :-)
