You know you have too much stuff when......

[Novasport]

....you have to file everything in order.

Had a touch of the OCD today and decided to sort out some of my brochures, press photos, stickers & Total Vauxhall magazines etc.

Started with the TV mags, every single mag from the first issue...

And thats not really all of it. I need help.

[brainsnova]

Or a cellar lol

[wwmnw]

You have a seriously unhealthy obsession, its actually not even funny (lol) its alarming and you should get yourself to your nearest mental hospital and I'll look after all your Nova stuff.

On a serious note, what is it with you sport boys and collecting parts, obviously sport parts are rare/expensive but parts keep popping up I never knew Nova's came with and its usually you sport owners with them (I.E Nova tool kit).

[Novasport]

I have been collecting stuff for years so you do pick up the odd rare part.
This stuff is just literature and it's just the tip of the iceberg, you ought to see my parts collection!

[Benn]

Ah good work, OCD is awesome.

[steviegsi]

I put every single one of my total Vaux mags in the recycle bin the other day, it's quite nice actually being able to put clothes in my wardrobe now. lol

[Novasport]

Sould have sold them, I am sure they would have gone easily.

[steviegsi]

Probably but that would have meant going through them all and I'd probably have ended up keeping then!

You've got an unfair advantage with your Nova/Corsa A fetish although I'd love to have half of what I imagine you've got lol

[MK999]

I'd like to have enough for just one complete car, that'd do, I'm not even bothered if it's got GM stamps on it lol

[bazil]

lol there are a few mentalists on here,

I have to admit to being one aswell,

Driving 2600 miles in 3 days through 7 different countries to collect parts has to be my highlight lol
I should take a lesson from you Rich and orginise my stuff as it's just heaped into the loft :(

I've also managed to put a small ding in my new bonnet due to a complete lack of storing the parts properly untill I get round to using them,

Christ. Your trip must of cost alot...

[Novasport]

Only a small proportion of that was from the trip over to Germany, the vast majority have been collected over the years in the UK. Not paid aa great deal for a lat of stuff, like £50 for a pair of brand new rear chassis legs, £60 for one of the front chassis legs etc. I had 5x RH doors at one point, most were £50-100 each.

Hi Steve, I would not even try to compete with you! You must be the biggest Nova/Corsa A nut out there, I think Total Vauxhall should do a feature on you for the Hero bit in the magazine!
