Nice pics there. Some of those Novas really look mint!

like the Blue one on Alessio's & the black kitted up SR (with the Sr vinyl 1.8?). Oh & how rude do those 17" Mistrals look on that saloon?

vaughanmc
22-05-07, 04:17 PM
Yeah they looked good on the saloon

The Black 1.8 SR didn't tickle my fancy too much but its still a Nova..

cooltom31
22-05-07, 06:03 PM

vaughanmc
22-05-07, 07:56 PM

Lynsey
22-05-07, 08:38 PM
Yeah they looked good on the saloon

The Black 1.8 SR didn't tickle my fancy too much but its still a Nova..

It was ok, not really my thing either tbh... The owner was throwing me evils :confused: :tard: :mad:

vaughanmc
22-05-07, 08:52 PM
Yeah some of the owners up there didn't like people poking around there cars

There was one car where it said look at but don't touch -- But i was in touching everything I could see lol

Lynsey
22-05-07, 08:55 PM
Yeah but I wouldn't want people touching my car either... I was barely poking around, maybe because the guy I was with was very hott!!

vaughanmc
22-05-07, 08:57 PM
But you weren't with me...lol

nova-1.8sr
25-05-07, 06:13 PM
hi i am the owner of the wee black i.8 sr nova with the irmscher kit! lynz sr: i dont know who you are, i wouldnt have been giving you evils because i dont mind people looking at my car, and the way you said that about the guy you were with being very hot it wouldnt have been because of that because i have got a boyfriend and he was at knockhill with me! debbie.x

vaughanmc
25-05-07, 08:53 PM

kenny_afh
26-05-07, 04:28 PM
i was in the red sri 16v parked next to the white GSi you took a fancy to. was a good day.

saw you taking those pics over in the far carpark too, was wondering what was going on!!!

i cant decide what was best about the day, the **** out starlet or the AX kicking **** on the track?

vaughanmc
26-05-07, 08:46 PM
Yeah I loved the Red SRi mate -- Similar looking to my wee Nova

The Starlet was amazing with the drifts but the AX kicked ass lol

Its got a 2.0 GTi-180 Engine and its supercharged lol -- 230bhp or there-abouts..

Vaughan!

moffat
03-12-07, 06:21 PM

Ahh dam shame, as theres not many of them left now, they were among the few factory extra colours they did that not lots of got sold, that some darck green's and strange blacks.

turbodrew1
06-12-07, 06:41 PM

vaughanmc
06-12-07, 06:43 PM

Any like W.I.P post or anything about it?

turbodrew1
06-12-07, 06:55 PM
no mate. although i,ve been on this site for a while thats me just got my posting thing sorted which allows me to post. after selling the nova i got a vectra ST200 which was good but just not a turbo nova. actually the bottom end on the vectra went a week after i sold it pheew!!. but last wednesday i went down and gave RJM25R (rick off here) a wee visit, gave him some cash pound notes and am now the proud owner of K95 VHD. so al be at all the usual sh1te with that next year possibly.

turbodrew1
06-12-07, 09:39 PM
You seen your old ones for sale? Still looks cracking!

aye mate still looks good. he offered it back to me but i had to much time to convince myself i should'nt. had he turned up on my door step offering me it then it might have been a different story.

turbodrew1
06-12-07, 09:46 PM
Probably nothing much has changed but post up some pics anyway :D

yeah mate will get some up this weekend, nothing has changed at all but the wheels will be getting changed shortly to 16's so it can sit a bit higher but at the same time still low just to manage the sh1tty scottish roads.

NovaLad
06-12-07, 09:53 PM
omg Your going to change them sexual wheels?

Your mad lol.. allthough it is your car and it up to you what ya do with it lol.

turbodrew1
06-12-07, 10:11 PM
am afraid so. they're not really my cup of tea to be honest and if i left them on and raised the car it would just look stupid. its speed bump city up here mate so am doing it for the cars health and safety. :)

NovaLad
06-12-07, 10:12 PM
Okies...

So they will be for sale?

turbodrew1
06-12-07, 10:18 PM

NovaLad
06-12-07, 10:19 PM
You could if they didn't have the green centres as they just wouldn't go with a burgundy car lol.

turbodrew1
06-12-07, 10:26 PM
correct. they can always be painted? they would look very sexual in burgundy.

NovaLad
06-12-07, 10:29 PM
Lol i don't think my bank would like how much you would want for them lol !!!

turbodrew1
06-12-07, 10:38 PM
