Thought Id put some pics of my newly aquired runaround. I had a pug 106 after I lost my last nova and never liked it, but it surved its purpose mind, however I missed the nova too much so I got another!!

Its not totally mint, but its very tidy, just a few niggly bits really but its only my runaround.

Just a 1.2 Fun, got 77,000 on the clock and came with 12months MOT, new brakes all round, new exhaust, 4 new tyres, new battery and it had a service.

4 owners from new, previous owner only covered 2000 miles in it for the 6 years he owned it.

Not a bad little nova. I have put some SR seats in that I had in the garage and also a GTE/GSI Steering wheel. Only other plans are to put some alloys on, and lower it if I come across some cheap springs. Anyways heres the pics!

Cheers. Ian

She looks sweeet! Funny how you can tell its a poverty spec car from the outside though, it looks totally void of anything remotely electric.

Good move on the SR seats & steering wheel too. I cant bare to drive a Nova without the sports seats.

Had alot of trouble with the wiring, so basically it need fully re wiring and bought my mk1 nova sr instead and sold the nova fun to some guy who raced them and he reshelled his smashed up nova gsi into it.

Drivers side had a plate welded in at the bottom by the previous owner, but he hadnt smoothed it off or painted it, so I have smoothed and painted that up as good as I could, and passenger side had a few bubbles so I tidyed that up too while I was at it! There is also a dint on the passenger side which you can just see at the edge of the pic.

Like I said its not mint, but tidy enough for me to run around in:)
