She looks pretty nice n rust free there, I like it, but no so much about the sun strip. I wont ask what you got banned for.
I fitted the same front brakes but from a TD astra as the constant seizing crappy nova ones had to go.

Give it some rev

much better!!

i got banned for "executing a handbrake turn"

that was the 1st charge (of 3)

but they also accused me of "performing what is commonly known as a 'doughnut'....spinning the rear wheels" lol (it was in a Fiat Punto-needless to say, i got off with that lol)

charge 3 was a bald tyre, got off with that too (didnt use a tread guage)

?300 fine and 7points CD30 on my liscence - re-sit my test

bummer lol

My defence would have been for the police to prove exactly how I was spinning the rear wheels, seen as the punto is a fwd car lol

you should of just saved us the reading effort and said

''Yes i was driving like a complete c.ock''

Go Go spinning the wheels in a rwd car must be magic

ahh fair point lol

my solicitor wrote a breat letter to the fiscal

"please may we delete the second charge as my client was driving a Fiat Punto at the time. This car would require extensive mechanical alteration for it to spin its rear wheels"

fookin pigs

allthough sayigng that, getting banned was the best thing that happened to me. it was either get banned or die, cause i was heading for an early grave (think, 110mph in a 30mph zone and youl see where im coming from)

major slap in the face for me. learned so much.

im a born again driver lol

Taking the strip off looks so much better - doesnt look like a boyracer thats jus come back from his local A1 Discounts store.
Glad to hear that you have seen the light because of your ban as a born-again driver.
Happy Motoring, well, once you get your license back.

well i had wrote off my 1st nova so i bought the punto for ?150 taxed and tested, just as a run around

ended up putting 3 gearboxes in it, then the big end took a holiday so i sold it for ?60 lol

my 1st two cars lasted me 5 months in all.

had this latest nova nearly year, and put 10,000 miles on it. (from may to july)
