Have a look on ebay and search for nova under new listings, theres one on ther for 25K. I would post a link but havnt made enouh posts yet.
Check this out.The lad lives near me. Been a project for about 4/5 years i think. He reckons to have spent ?50,000 +????????? Dont think its ever been used.
Power: 440bhp with 2.2 bar boost
I know a lad who knows the company selling it he said that the company finishd all the work on it, the lad then turned round to them and said keep it. Hasnt botherd paying them. Cants trick!!

lovly engine,
worth no more than 8 in my eyes
25k is plain rediclious
not hardly done anything with interior either

Think there just trying their hardest to get something back.
Thats a joke. Look at the ropey interior. Hasnt even got a column shroud.
Yes, the spec's uber impressive, but it looks like a bogey, and you could buy a very clean used Monaro for that.
No contest IMO.
EDIT: Number plate represents number of probable bids lol
nice car but way over the top on the price i think its worth about 8 aswell if im going to buy something for that price i will buy a h**e worth more than that
Escort Cossie seats, WHY? With an engine spec like that, why use some standard Fords items...
EDIT: Look at the sellers other items ;)
Hell of a lot of work gone in to that :eek: Rather impressive. Not worth ?25k though, despite what has been spent.

For anouther 2k they are selling this......
Hmmmmm which 1, descisions descisions!
?25k is R34 GTR money, not Nova money

That things been around before anyway i remember seeing it the first time late last year and they still wanted 25 grand for it, worth every penny if you ask me.

Mortgage money if you ask me!lol
i saw this on auto trader, didnt have any spec and just one picture...i thought they had added a zero on the end of the price by mistake

i think i might buy it......
and then ask them to build an exact replica in bright pink for my girlfriend lol
how can anyone expect to get ?25,000 for a nova, seriously?!
?25k is R34 GTR money, not Nova money
Exactly!
?25,000 Novas aren't exactly the cheapest way to 440bhp. I was going to write my ?25k wish list, but there are too many cars out there I'd rather have which are more powerful, quicker, better looking, safer, handle better and less rusty/likely to rust.

it probably cost that to build? IMHO id rather spend the time building it or at least designing it myself than buying someone elses work. would of thought it would of been at PVS if they were trying to sell it for that much. i reckon it will be up for a more realistic 15k not that its worth it but it would probably generate more interest.

?25000! whats the value of the parts if it was to be broken? ?6, 7, 8,000 maybe?

i just phoned the company and asked what makes it worth 25 grand,they claim it to be the cleanest nova in britain but also the fastest!!!! my reply was when novas were new out they didnt cost anymore than 10 11k for a gsi model,at that point i also mentioned i have a 1.2 nova in progress could they possibly trying selling it for me for 15k lol

it doesnt look like the cleanest at all!! it won't be the fastest either! they sound like a bunch of cowboy's tryin to get something out of nothing... losers
they claim it to be the cleanest nova in britain but also the fastest!!!!
If that was really the case, then why didn't they bring it to PVS to try and win some awards? Would have been an ideal marketing ploy to drum up some buyers.
Or possibly they'd get laughed out of the showground... lol
