recently took the nova off the road because it was running very very poor, was planning on fixing it but went out and bought this!

been using it for a week and already its draining my bank account in fuel bills (approx 8-10 mpg) wereas i could get 30-40 in the nova! waiting on a new carb and then the nova will be sorted, but not sue weather to get rid or keep it and sell the land rover!! and before you say keep the land rover as a toy i cant afford the insurance on both! the nova is a 1.2 and the lanny is a 2.3 yet the insurance is lower!!

The mythical top speed of a 1.2 strikes again!

Has the Landy leaked all its diff fluid out on the drive yet? (FLOG IT) lol

the landy is surely worth a moderate ammount since they seem to hold value really well for a complete 5h1tter of a vehicle lol

Where do you live and what do you do? If all you do is pootle around on road then keep the Nova. If you live in the country and drive across fields chasing cows then keep the land rover.

combine the two in to a 'Land Nova' ;)

or sell the landy and spend more on the nova.

Now that sounds like very good advice to me.
