Starting to loose interest...

...in the Novas. I have no time to work at them due to this stupid ****ing house i'm building and its a real Pity cuz i gathered so much stuff for them. Group A SS Exhausts, Irmischer Quad Lights, GTE and GSI Bumpers, 2 sets of Comps, Manta 400 Mirrors etc etc etc etc.

Anyway, i took the notion that if i did sell the Novas i'd buy a Series 1 RS Turbo or a Mk3 XR3/3i. They are as simple as to convert to RWD and look ACE with the RST Kit and finished in Black.


What notions have you lot been thinking on in your darkest hours??

H reg Audi 80, dropped 80mm on wide 15 inch steelies, standard bodywork, but de badged and de bump stripped. All painted satin black with the deutche plates and a black leather interior.
Warm in the winter, not rattly, seats 4 in comfort, not rusty and easy to get parts for from German and Swedish. Probably cost about a grand to do if I sprayed it myself (satin black hides a multitude of sins too :))

dont do it! just get one little job done on it this weekend and you'l be satisfied for a while, but whatever you do DON'T BIN THE NOVA!

[Dod]

Well, if i was offered the right money for the lot.....

Babe, i think you're mad!!! if i was in your position, i'd keep all of them, and get your house finished, then kick on with the cars! no point having too many things on the go, you'll burn yourself out!

My Nova's taken the back seat til i get my house finished, don't be too hasty!!!

[Dod]

LOL, i have a MK1 GTI Golf and 2 MK 1 Jettas!!!

[BigStan]

Dont do it, i have felt like that but just as said before when you get something done and you know its good you feel so much better about it !

[Dod]

Still unconvinced, but they can sit in my garage, not as if they are costing me anything in there.....

just make sure it doesnt rust in the garage. i sold a solid nova just over a year ago and it went into a garage at the back of someone's house. i then went back to it last saturday to buy it back thinking it would still be solid and its gone real bad for some reason. i thought with it being in a garage all the time it wouldnt rot. i was wrong.

Damp car + dry garage = rust... can be worse than leaving it outside in the rain!

[Lucky Luke!]

If you look back through my threads just over 2 months ago i was talking about jacking the nova project in and getting summat else. 2 months later i drive my lovely nova, learnt a few skills on the way and am SO glad i didnt get rid of it!

Dod will NEVER sell his Novas! if he does, then something will have gone seriously wrong!
