My latest Nova SR

[Richy12]

this is my latest nova 1990 1.4 SR, was stored outside london for 7 years, last time it was taxed was 2006, 2 lady owners from new, 44k miles, completely original, i bought it and it made the 515 mile trip home.

It landed back so JonnyMCL and i headed off to collect it from the haulage yard and i really wasnt expecting it to be so clean for a 23 year old car.

i recently fully serviced it myself with all genuine parts, oil, oil filter, spark plugs, brake discs, pads, air filter, rocker cover gasket etc just to keep it right. Never thought these went so well but still has nothing on my SRi nova.

Anyway enough chat, heres a few pictures taken on sunday. i will get out my own camera to take plenty more pictures.

Comments please (i do realise mk1s arent for everyone but its more retro looks have definately won me over)

Lovely looking car, My SR had the mudflaps but I noticed that the passenger one had encouraged the start of corrosion where it attaches to the car, I promptly removed the mudflaps, cut and replaced the rot and since have not noticed any more muck on the car and have not missed the mudflaps, Just saying, be sure before you start.

[Benn]

Ah the side ways car... Nice.
