I was always under the impression that all Novas were built in Spain, but have recently heard someone talking about having a Nova that was built in Germany. I can't imagine GM having 2 production lines set up to build them, a lot of money wasted IMO! So was he talking rubbish, or is it true?

I've yet to see a nova that doesn't have the code for zaragoza on the vin plate, that was the town they were built in, Corsa 'c's and meriva's are still made there I think.
