o and if a car is recorded aginst dvla scrap maker can you undo that?

[Jack]

Mk2's are better than Mk1's :D

Anyway... take the best bits from both and stick onto whichever is the better shell/chassis.

[Stanley]

White MK2!

GSi kit (inc vinyl on tailgate!!) lowered, speedlines - sorted :thumb:

[Asa-James]

if a car is recorded as scrap then i dont think u can undo it unless you re-register it. i had that problem a few years back with a couple of mk 2 golfs, the better of the two was already scrapped, so i started swapping bits, bought my nova for ?50 and scrapped the pair of them!

[Asa-James]

btw where the muck is that scrappies? i want that sally rear bumper if its goin for a good price!

[Dave.]

sorry mate its my dads garage, and the saloon is crushed now.
ill see if i took it off not sure

[Lozzie C]

You can. My Nova was written off as scrapped but what happened was we sent a letter to the DVLA about it along with the contact details of the previous owner and it got sorted. :)

[Jack]

Scrapped, or insurance write off? Certain categories of write offs can be re-registered. Theoretically a car thats been scrapped should be taken to the scrapyard immediately and/or disposed of, so can't be re-registered - the DVLA is being hammered by the EU and the lib dems at the moment because its very very slack about this process, thus allowing scrapped cars to live on.

[Iain]

I'm sure you made this exact thread wondering whether to swap your blue one for the white one not so long ago :wtf:

[Stuart]

erm its your car, your money, do what the hell you want with both....

[Dave.]

i dont know what i want to do with them bith thats why ive out a thread up

[125scouse]

wanna sell the white one? any tax or test on it?

[Stuart]

if you had the chance to buy a winning lottery ticket, or a losing one and you posted a thread on here asking which one to buy, and everyone said "the losing one" would you just follow that advice because its what everyone said, or would you use your gut instinct and buy the winner?.........

[Mike]

get the white one, and sell me the wheels lol

[NOV4_SPORT]

go get the white one matey, you always want to hold onto your first car, but its time to cut your loses, and move on, unless you can afford to keep both, you got enough space ?, also the speedlines alone are worth that, they look in good condition

[Stanley]

Err i dont think theyre Speedlines....

Look like Astra Mk4 or Vectra wheels to me.........

[Rob]

get the white one its looks mint and i wish my dad had a garage like that love it

[greg1.4]

yeah go for the white one dave! take all the good bits off the blue one and put it onto the mk2.

[c'2.0lrt]

if ya blue one is rusty and might cost a bit to repair go for the white. which one did you say the rails were gone on? top job on all the cool art car pics mate

[Riggy]

scrap them both and buy a gay corsa :thumb:

[Jack]

Drive them both into as many corsas as you can find lol

I'm sure I've seen those wheels on a Mk4 astra.

[Adam]

They are mk4 astra wheels, not Mistrals.

[Dave.]

ok im weaving towards the white 1 now. lol

[Matt2107]

go with the white.

[L14MNP]

White MK2 all day long!

Structural rust on a Nova is not fun to deal with Dave! You don't want to spend loads of money repairing the underside etc and see no (obvious) benefit do you? Instead of repairing rails/legs etc. you could mod the mk2

[MOL]

Get the white one mate, Its a steal at that price.
It would be plain rude to leave it there for 75quid :D lol
