To be honest it looked like it was fuked wen u first got it. If you be patient another clean nova will pop up. But please to get a ford escort. If you want something that is cheap and will last a few years have a look at some Vw Golfs.

Go have alook at it as soon as possible. Im sure with a bit of bargaining you can get that down to 450 easy. Ashame its white though.

LMFAO group 1 my arse! Thats a group 3 lol

I'd say he's looking for ?500 which is a bit much, even with MOT, exhaust etc. Tyres are negligible, no doubt they're about ?15 each lol

If it was a 2dr then yeah maybe ?400 at a push...

doooney mate... dont give up on Nova's

like they said just be patient and one will pop up.

If you find a 1.1 or 1.2 then you can have my old 1.4 SR for free and do an engine transplant if you like.

Have you ever driven or owned an escort ?

If not, then zip-it

I can name quite a few escorts i'd rather have than my car.
