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
Astra 16v 256mm brakes
Wolfrace 15" Alloys with Yokohama A539 Tyres
Full GSi Kit
Clio Rear Wiper
Clear Side Repeaters
Solex Locks
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.
