Yes they were built in brown, not many, I went to look (@26 yrs ago) at one in a Vauxhall dealership, but he was too lazy to get it out to test drive unless I promised to buy it, so went to view my white SR, the rest is history

Just to clear it up, mine is a replica, mocca brown is its orignial colour too and it was avalible in the SR between 83/very early 85. although i can take everything off and over a weekend it can be returned to non SR still with the amazing results you see in the picture. I had one many years ago but never made it back on the road so decided to recreate it.

Rep or not it looks awesome.
The one I used to see I am sure had the dark brown tartan interior (brown seatbelts aswell?)complete with snowplough and always looked clean and shiny. Some people might of mistaken it for a polished turd! But hey I thought it looked great!! :p

I'm still on the look out for one! While I'm looking it's giving me more time to collect bits and save some more money/earn more money. There was an awesome sport shell popped up on ebay last week but was removed so presumed it was snapped up.
Think that sport shell was removed from ebay because the seller didnt have the V5
Email him, bet he still has it
i do love your nova ben :thumb:

If thats your one with the red compomotives, that's a shame! Always liked it. Building another?
Sure is mate :( I've had it for years and have had my fun with it. I love messing with novas but i dont enjoy driving them or hatchbacks as much now, time to move on i suppose. I always said that if i was to get rid of it it will be going to the scrapyard, at least this way i know it wont be coming back on the road lol
Another one? Maybe one day but it would have to be a genuine GSi and be immaculate.
Sad times but i knew it would have to come one day :)

That, and he keeps changing plans to put whatever engine is in his current daily in the Nova it seems.
We've got an E46 M3 head on stock ready to be gasflowed, getting about 18-20% out of most 16v's (that's obviously about the same for any 4v per cylinder lol) but the BMW is probably quite good standard... reasonable power gains though ;)

wide arch one was originally bretski's blue 1.0 , he sold it and someone painted and turbo'd it iirc
Was a mate of Craig (Euro SBD) who owned it as the blue wide arch XE I think, hence the Euro SBD name... he bought it off of Craig and painted it (in an awesomely fantastic mirror finish black!) and turbo'd it from an XE iirc?
And my Mustard shell came from Craig after he stripped it down from an XE, small world :d
Was a 1.0 until the guy who let'd it got it, its H101, the guy who painted it was formerly SRI_147_Glenn (iirc) who then had his username changed to EUROTURBO (http://www.pngclub.com/forum/member.php?11458-EUROTURBO):p
Maybe Craig didn't own it then, or thinking about it I think he might have had plans for an ITB'd XE in it, then sold it on? Was a few years ago now that I bought mine lol

Yes Benn that's the one, Brettski's was H101usa which he sold and became the black one Euroturbo owned:
