I think the best thing to do is get an AA inspection if they are funny about it, then take it back to them with the report

Hello Everyone my nova's being collected today by lager & i a got a clue wot to expect being returned.

Got to say thou anyone looking to do similar work should try the griffin centre in the midlands by merry hill Stu there is a good chap who went over my car and made a list for me to give to them & after looking at his work i wish he would of done my car & he charges between ?1000 & ?1500 he'd just finished a nova turbo when i saw him.

Thanks Everyone for your comments

Anyone know the cheepest way to wire power to a ps2 in my Nova

Cheers Mike
