Some suggestions please I have a few ideas but I'm unsure what to do...
Wide arch satin black semi track car?
All cleaned up, speedline alessios.. Just get the car looking pretty mint.
Sleeper basically same as above but with banded steels?
It's a laser blue mk1 merit.

It's gonna have to have a motor with some chest hair to be a sleeper in any guise IMO mate.
As I often say on here, I expect any Nova now to be running an XE at least. It's not much of a surprise. There's still plenty out there that won't be thinking the same though I guess!
As for your ideas, they're pretty different from each other. It all depends what you want from the car.

It's going to be a let mate lol it's in the projects thread...
I do like the idea of satin black but the cars a nice colour to start with and I don't want to end up ruining it?.

mmm Not sure.
For - 1. I don't like satin black
For - 2. Speedlines don't suit MK1's IMO
For - 3. I don't like banded steelies
I'd do a wide arch MK1 in the original Lazer blue but looking standard as possible, basically a MK1 of Brettski's old motor. ;)

That was the look I was wanting but in satin black... I think even in laser blue thow it will look good!
Unsure of what wheels would suit it thow.

lazer blue GTE rep
lowered on 15inch steels would be a sleeper, leaving all the badges on the back and hiding the intercooler
