Thinking of booking my nova in for a respray soon, debating or not wether to change colour though :? Its a mk1 SR and its light met blue at the moment. Thinking about maybe a dark charcoal / dark met grey. Anyone got any decent pics of dark charcoal/dark grey mk1.
What are your opinions ? Any other colours ?

Cheers
:wink:

I like the idea of a dark charcoal nova, i think that would look well smart

I had a MK1 SR that I had resprayed in a very dark metallic grey (So dark it was almost black in anything other than blazing sunlight).
I'll try and upload a few pics. Gimme 5 mins.

"Jules" Did you have coilovers on the rear, on that Nova..?

No, they were -60mm springs that I sent away to Coil Springs (Sheffield, UK) and had them reshaped to lower it by 90mm at the rear and -80mm at the front (I think? - was a long time ago!!)

Lol - ok so you don't like it...I get that, but where are they from??

Not quite a plane but my nova's a rocket, so I guess it fits into the spoiler catagory....lol 8)

LOL!! It's a Astra GTE one, shortened in the middle (Can't remember exactly how much by), leg removed and plastic welded up and plastic welded back together, I then screwed the bottom half to the SR spoiler then fitted the top half.

Oh and I had mine a long time before Mr Oxfords!!

Well don't buy it as you won't get the V5 owners document (And it used my car and has now been stolen / sold without permission).
Send me a email or Private Message with the number of the person selling it please.

Metalic gunmetal grey - it sparkles when the light hits it!
