Hi peeps
I thought id join up as im lookng into buying a nova saloon, yes a saloon, your probably thinking SALOON:confused: Why??.. Well i dont know really i suppose its different.
I used to have a grey G-reg Nova GTE like 3 years ago, i currently drive a mk3 Astra Gsi turbo (C20LET)

So, Anybody know anyone selling a 3dr nova saloon?? if so let me know:thumb:
My plans for tha saloon are:
C20XE - Full SBD engine sat ready in my garage its the 196bhp engine and i have added fast road cams, MBE engine management
Basicly a Gsi bodykit with hatchback rear arches slammed with a set of 17s.

Hope to chat to you all soon.:D

My 1st car was a 2 door saloon :D

They are getting rare now, most commonly found in europe.. For some reason the belgans love them..

Sounds like a good plan mate, not many smart modified saloons around and good to be original :)

well at 1st i did plan to put an C20XE with the throttle bodies in a standard Gsi (Lowered of corse:roll: ) and it had to be either Black, Silk voilet or imperial green (the colour of a lotus carlton:D )
But i think a Gsi is wheeeeeey too common nowerdays!

So its got to be a 2 Door Saloon:thumb:

i'l keep you all posted on the progress:)

sound like a cool idea, i like the idea of big arches should make it look less odd having a wide back, intstead of boot added on to the sporty line anywaygood luck keep us updated.
