Im looking to get a bigger car-As some of you may know Im starting to live on my 40ft narrowboat very shortly! Lol
I will be driving on very dusty & stoney roads-Not suitable for the Nova at all! :o & I will be carrying weekly 2 very heavy gas cylinders which my Nova would struggle to carry & rub like fook!

So im going to be looking to sell or swap for:

Vauxhall Frontera 2L petorl LWB/SWB
Volvo 850 2L estate
Vauxhall Omega 2L estate

Does anybody know about these? any help appreciated.

LMAO! Id love a Hummer, but It'd never leave the petrol station! As for putting a Omega sideways :o I wont be bringing it new Stuart! :wink:

Volvo are typically an old mans car, But there very strong & are extremely comfortable to drive. The aircon is good too. But Its abit more practical & less likely to get nicked too.
Im gonna put the car on eBay and maybe swap for a bigger car of somekind.
My dad once had a frontera when they first came out-He liked it & his was very reliable even after 130k. So thats what Id prefer either SWB or LWB. Diesel would be the best bet-Anyone know what engine is best for lasting into good mileage?

If u can afford it why don't you keep the nova and store it away as a weekend or track car and get something like a old cavalier td?

Lol, Its not that I need something overly powerful-The Nova has enough power-Its just being able to leave it parked securely & not havin a million stone ships & my exhaust smashed with all the potholes etc. Im probably going to store the Nova in my dads garage with his roller! Lol. & get myself a Frontera Diesel, or a estate of somekind.
