James Martin and His Vauxhall Nova

[matt_vaughan]

Not sure what its all about, or whether anyones actually interested, but it sounds like James Martin is about to discuss his Vauxhall Nova (which he apparently owns now) on Radio 2 with Chris Evans.

[mowgli]

i will be on the i player later to work out what it was about, cos i heard a snippet at 8:45

JM usually likes italian classic exotica

[matt_vaughan]

hes bought back his first ever car. a 1.0 nova saloon

[scott.parker]

[mowgli]

at least we would have the best bbq at billing.........

[turbojolt]

Is he the guys that's dose Saturday kitchen

[mowgli]

yes..you're not one of those food show watchers are you?? the sort that watches food porn, then microwaves a ready meal?

[turbojolt]

Nah mate I cook I cant stand microwave crap lol I acculy enjoy cooking

[brainsnova]

[blue_peg_16v]

[wwmnw]

Lol he will have to wrestle brown bear for BBQ duties lol

After catching me an prying all the burgers out of my hands.

[mowgli]

all of a sudden it gets back the the old days of png..... fast food & gayness.....

[Southie]

Lol he will have to wrestle brown bear for BBQ duties lol
lol I was going to say that, I'd love to see James Martin cooking from the Loonaque next year at the Nats lol

[mowgli]

who is going to poke him???










on facebook

[Southie]

Is the fact James Martin now has a Nova going to see even more silly prices on Novas. "Nova saloon similar to James Martins = 1 squillian quid" lol

[mowgli]

at least its a guaranteed way of getting a nova into a mainstream car mag, instead of the almighty abuse they get at the moment.... has a nova ever been put into the ppc £999 challenge?? or do they just ignore them as they continually insult novas in the rest of the mag..

[Southie]

It would be nice to see him actually ask for help on here though, I hope he doesn't text talk though lol

[mowgli]

i can just imagine spudly getting all twitchy with his ban hammer.....

[mowgli]

he'll probably get his car restorer to do the work, the restorer will come on here, then get the stuff & add 500% when he sticks the bill in.. like they normally do.

[Andy]

New ebay listings will now be titled......Autograss/race/rally/GSI/GTE/Sr/redtop/JamesMartin lol

I entered my Nova a few years ago and did quite well, came 5th on 0-60 and 5th on 1/4 mile. Not bad for my daily drive with all its comforts still.

MR2 turbo or bike engined Reliant kitten came 1st iirc!

[Spudly]

Err am i the only one who hasnt actually got a clue who youre on about?

[Jack]

Is he the guys that's dose Saturday kitchen
Catch up dear potato lol

[Spudly]

But i dont understand what that is, he dose's people with what in a kitchen on a saturday, is he a doctor?

[mowgli]

he is a bloke that cooks on the telly, i'm surprised he hasn't got electrocuted yet, but never mind eh.... he is from oop norf, and is famous, as long as you are retired....and female......

[Spudly]

[John]

Ok so instead of hitting images, hit web, jeez spud. lollol

[Spudly]

[Andy]

They do drive like one lol,and crash like one loler

[Stuart]

We'd have to drag the Mrs off him before he could get round to cooking lol

[turbojolt]

He has been on fifth gear a few times and topgear once I think, other then that all I know him from is Saturday kitchen and I think he use to be on ready steady cook could be wrong tho
