well after selling my corsa gsi its now time to sell the nova to make room for my next car. ive owned it for over a year now and it has spent 8 months of that sat in my garage as i lost interest in the car for a while. its been totally stripped and is now a track/road car so dont expect it to be a quiet and comfy car cos it isnt, its meant for one thing, going fast and handling well.

the mileage is 157k on the clocks but these are not the origional clocks, im not too sure of the actual mileage of the engine. the car itself is solid, there are no rust spots etc etc although the paint work isnt up to much. i was going to have it resprayed but i eventually liked the sleeper look and loved that "bigger" cars underestimated it on sight. the engine is running the best it has done since ive had it as we have fitted a number of new parts. all in all to finish the car off and make it mint the paint work and a few small dents need to be sorted.

heres the spec:

1.2 shell with no rust etc

2.0 16 XE engine fitted

Seam Welded Engine Bay

Competition Engine Mounts

F20 gearbox

Quickshift

Pipercross Air Filter

Full Scorpion Exhaust

Full Avo Coilovers, height and damping adjustable

Full GSi Kit

Clio Rear Wiper

Clear Side Repeaters

Mk3 Astra Gsi Bonnet Vent

Silk Violet paint

Chrome Bonnet Lifters

Fully Stripped Out (only the dash left)

Mountney Steering Wheel

Cobra Monaco Bucket Seats

Le Mans 3 Point harnesses

Corsa Indicator Stalks

Fabricage Half Roll Cage

Toad AI606 Alarm/Immobiliser

New Parts Fitted:

Coolant Temp sensor

Cam Belt + Tensioners less than 1000 miles ago

Sump gasket

Main Oil Seal

Rocker Cover Gasket

Brakes Hoses

Brake Pads

2 Front Tyres less Than 1000 Miles ago (yoko a539s)

NS Rear Wheel Bearing

NS Front Wheel Bearing

Spiggot Rings

Battery

Plugs

Upper Strut Bearings

Cleaned Abd Painted Fuel Tank

Now for a few bad points:

idle control valve can stick somtimes but usually goes away once you rev the engine.

paintwork could be better

the front alloys have tyres but i personally dont think theyre safe as they have bubbles on the sidewalls and should ideally be replaced

back box needs tightening as it moves and knocks on the rear bumper.

The car also comes with 12 months MOT and 6 Months Tax. I have some history for the car, old mots etc etc. Also the former owner and person who built the car has pictures of the whole process which i can get, also anyone wishing to speak to the former owner i can put you in touch with them.

Also included in the sale are a set of Mahle Forged Pistons, rear Strut Brace and the steel wheels you see in the pictures.

If the tyres are 'new' why are they bubbling? And also how did it get the MOT with unsafe front tyres?

the fronts are now on the back and they are nearly new yokos. the car didnt go through the mot with the unsafe tyres on, it went through with the ones you see in the pictures
