Jamacian Yellow Nova SR's

[Give it some rev]

Hiya everyone,
I'm new 2 this so forgive me if i make a mistake.
Anyway, i was wondering if anyone out their knows how many jamacian yellow Nova SR's where made and how rare are they?
Theirs 1 im my village on a c reg and its been stood 4 ages but panel wise its fairly mint and its got its original brown recaro type trim which again is mint. its done 60k. How much is this worth?

Thanx Chris

Sorry mate no info from me on the how many and how rare are they..

And im sure a few others will come on here and give you a load of shit over the post,(for god sake a car is as worth as much a buyer is willing to pay)witch is right but im not going to have a go at you just warn you what "some" others will do.

Welcome to novaload by the way,enjoy it.

yes welcome to novaload


as for the car id say that they were prob all mk1 so a decent one will be rare but as said it worth what ever youd pay for it

although id say bout ?500-600 if its mint mint - my current runaround 1.0 :oops: is mint bar very slight bubble rust at the very bottom of rear arches and i paid 350 for it j plate

i payed ?400 for my jamaican yellow sr but it wasn't mint, it had a rusty rear arch and a couple of holes in each sill. as for the rarety, i havn't found any info yet but iv'e only managed to find one other person with one. but have been told of a couple more. i myself wouldn't part with my sr for anthing under a grand.

thanx riggy

my current car is a 20 thousand mile original 1.2 merit (it was that 1 of ebay if anyone seen it) all i need now is GTE or a SR so i can rob it 4 all of its bits lol

same here m8, i wudnt part with mine either. i must say that ?400 seems strong money 4 a Nova in that condition but i suppose its that rare colour

[probert_nova]

it sounds bad but it wasn't rotten.the guy wanted ?700 coz of its rarety. heres a pic when i got it,the rusty rear arch side.

my mate paid 200 5 year ago for a b reg yellow 1 so i'd say a couple of hundred 8)

[Give it some rev]

iv just had a look at ya nova thats on the links and it has a red SR interior, i thought they had choc brown interior. still, very nice car m8

yeah id say that aswell leemh1234

[probert_nova]

not sure what interiors they had, mine had escort recaros in it which couldn't be adjusted so i put my spare sr interior in. the rear bench had the stripey seats in. put my old bucket seats back in now anyway till i find a gsi interior.

[leemh1234]

the 1.3sr engine is lovly little engine.they did have brown insides but that 1 has been brought up to date.i was looking for a yellow sr a while ago didnt find 1 tho.so get knocking on the door and offer a couple of hundred for it might say take it.
worth a try mate 8)

[leemh1234]

Used to own a 5 door jamaica yellow 1.2

Looked quite nice after i spent 12 hours polishing it up.

The reg was C737 ACR - now scrapped.

Jamaica yellow is nice, but Mustard yellow is better, both are very rare colours these days as has been said, were only available on Mk1 novas and mustard was only on SRs iirc.

[scott.parker]

Sorry Ben there was a 1.2 merit D plate three doors up from me about 8yrs ago that was in Mustard yello same as your SR's.

Scott

[~~joycey~~]

wots the difference between mustard yellow and Jamaica yellow? i thought they were both the same? :o

[scott.parker]

Mustard is like bens very dark looking,and Jamaica yellow is lighter (same as in the jamaican flag) :lol:
