Has any one had a dark blue mk2 ( i think ) nova nicked?


reason I ask, Is i went banger racing at ipswich tonight and saw a very mint mk2 nova. I think its mk2 never looked at it in thep its. There wasn't a dent on it and he was running alloys only cheap 5 spokes but still alloys. The paint job looked to good for a rookie banger race. It was blue with a perl tint to it. Very nice. Very tidy / quick motor. Of course he might have been given it but it just looked to mint / clean to be given to. I'll see if I can get some pics next week from a mate and post them.

Of course i'm not saying its been nicked. He might have got it legitly but it just looked way to clean to be a banger.

Oh and on the way back the fuel gage was showing 1/4 tank. Looked 10 mins late and it was showing empty. Went up a hill and it stalled, tried to turn it over and it had run out of fuel. On a Dual cariageway on a sharpe bend which wasn't lit. I so nearly saw a evo 6 hit the rear end doing about 80mph. Lucky his breaks worked well :(

some people really hate novas an will go out an find the best one just to smash it up. I know someone who bought a nova just to cut it up with an angle grinder on purpose.

^^^^^ :lol:

you do get the odd good nova in a banger race though, last time i went to one in devon i saw a fairly mint 1.4 sr mk1, it looked nice, and a white GTE, couldnt see rust on them either :o

yer i agree you see the novas out on the tracks but. This just looked abit to clean. Had a quick look around it and couldn't see any reason for it to fail MOT or have any sort of engine troubles.

on one of jeremy clarksons videos..

he tried to handbrake turn a montego into a small paralell parking space (like that mini guy)

and the car he keeps on hitting is a fairly clean white GTE, then he pushes it on it;s roof at the end
