Original Novas

[Tazzy]

are there any original novas out there un-touched? like the red gte? or yellow sr? im talking more the mk1s than mk2s

i hate an original red gte, just had 15' tsws on it and lowered, sold it to a member on here, dunno if he still uses this forum though!

[amggsi]

Keith probably has one of the most original Novas left, his 85 1.2.

My saloon would be original too, but not in as good condition as Keiths!

That looks exactly like my sister's first Nova, is it a Swing?

[Mint FRST]

Yes mate, brought it off someone off here - forget his name.

Unfortunatley the car is not staying standard. The bodywork will be unchanged bar wheels and suspension. However shes having a heart transplant. Keep your eyes peeled as she will be out on the scene soon!

[krobinson]

There's a fella from Ballymena - NI with a red GTE with 15k on the clock, never painted/damaged and never driven in the wet since he's bought it in 1997. Totally original and stored in his garage.

I'll be up taking pictures of it soon when he moves it into his new bigger garage.

My 1.2L has only got 7.5k on it now, it had 4500 on it when i bought it a year ago.

Have a Mk2 1.4 SRi which is standard and has 21k on the mileage last time I checked.
And then we have my favourite one- a standard grey 1.3 SR with not so few miles.

[raymond]

i dont know i this classes as standard other than the speedlines it did have one orange and one clear front indicator when i bought it but ive chenged other than that its standard with 72k on the clock

My mate was offered one off some elderly fella but was rusty so he didn't take it. THE IDIOT. Last i see it being ragged round by a load of chavs who clearly dont give a toss about it must be be diged up worse now and like a 6" tail pipe swinging underneath it:( Such a shame. Rare as rocking horse **** as it it. Let alone original and in good nick.
