just want to say hi to everyone, I haven't been able to get onto the internet for a while because my brother cancelled freeserve but I'm back some may remember me I'm the 17yr old lad with the red L reg nova (feature in 1.4 sr section) I have a few new mods on my car, a flushed boot, recessed rear bumper that I finally finished and made myself and a nice new powerflow backbox which looks fit as fcuk !!! take a look and tell me what u think, p.s. I thought the performance vauxhall show was excellent, plenty of fukin quality novas and not to mention that blue one with centre exit exhaust no door handles and a 2litre turbo engine rej j2ltr tb or something like that but fuck me did it go down that dragstrip all in all excellent day and can't wait till next year take a look at my new pics

It had...

Slipping Clutch, Broken Head Gasket / Various Oil & Water Leaks, It had a short in the dash electrics, it had rust all around the engine bay and boot floor, the drivers window didn't work, it had been in 3 major accidents and been written off one, It needed a new windscreen, and I got more in P/X that I ever would by selling it.

About ?75- ?100 worth of parts and a few days labour.

Clutch alignment tool
Somebody to fit the windscreen
Electric window motor/switch etc
New Belt and W/pump to go with the gasket
Metal plates for rust holes.

Sorry, but spending all that on a bent car wasn't my idea of a good time. I've now got the best part of 3 years in a brand new car, No worries, No MOT, In some ways a better car.
