[John]

Spotted an ITB'D nova on above programme earlier, looked tidy! Lol at the presenters grilling the owner on how he drives it on the road. lol

[John]

Unfortunately not on i-player.

[scott.parker]

Lol was not my old car then lol its now a standard xe/f20 with lardy steal frame seats..

[millworm]

They usually take a couple of hours to pop up on iplayer

[John]

Didnt watch it but I find the most dangerous drivers are slow, hesitant, totally unaware of their surroundings and are generally just dithering cunts...well them and taxi drivers

[John]

As per my previous post, I only glanced at the telly cos my daughter shouted "look dad a nova on the telly!" Lol yeah the rest of the programme didn't look much cop tbf

The guy who bought it took out gearbox with diff/clutch, tbs etc off and took out seats, probably sold it all for around £3000 then sold the car on for £2-2500, I'm just guessing the money amounts..

[novadave24]

did not see no nova :(

[brainsnova]

That's because that vid is episode 1 where as it was on episode 2 :d

The guy who bought it in its ''new'' guise is on here.

Just watched the program, the women presenter asks what is it, he replies red top 2.1

[Spudly]

Where did you watch it Scott?

[paul james]

Its on iPlayer now:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01nt3ys/How_Safe_are_Britains_Roads_Episode_2/

37 minutes in.

[Spudly]

Dont think he came across in a bad way at all tbf, he was at the right place to be doing that, and as for the question about going fast on the road, well im sure we would all answer the same way he did in fairness :p



Think she thought he meant his insurance cost him £10k, i heard it as 'its insured for ten grand' i.e. agreed value, looked well built from that bay shot aswell:thumb:

[scott.parker]

Lol yeah that's why she almost swallowed her own tung TEN Grand! Lol

[nova_stee]

Ad put my left nacker on it not being a 2.1

[Graeme]

Looks like a nice nova, sounds like he's from south yorks to me, you can see Possy off corsa sport in the back ground lol

[Benn]

Might be bored out tho.^

I like hoe we are all painted with the same brush. As pre normal.

[bigron]

here is a pic of the engine bay of the nova

[John]

That's the badger, looks well in the bay.

[Connor]

Wonder if its declared?

[david dixon]

it was filmed at pod while we were there....bit of a strange place to film about fast cars and how they drive on the road!

[turbojolt]

Wonder if its declared?

who cares lol

[Connor]

I dont, was purely out of interest.

[Benn]

who cares lol

The people that pay mega money to insure a modded car because "most modded cars arnt declared" so push our premiums up.

This. Couldn't agree more hahahah.

EDIT: Just watched the clip, looks like a lovely Nova. Also, personally I found the parts after pretty interesting, but I am a Psychology student...
