Serious in that sense, but not serious in terms of Removing all the rust and re-panelling it !

Plus, there is limited sanity available when Ronal Teddybears are concerned

PS the birds love the teddy bears haha!!!!

that car is shameful, im half tempted to post it on barryboys myself cos im sure it wont be long before it pops up for a right royal pisstaking!

im actually embaressed just sitting on my computer looking at it, you must have balls the size of bloody water melons to actually drive it:eek:

i couldnt care less if it was a pisstake or if you genuinely believe your being different and cool.

THAT CAR IS S.HIT


no bones about it.

and i can say for sure it wont be long before the pictures of it are over every car forum on the net, with people taking the piss out of not only the car, but everyone who drives novas. well done:thumb:

P.S Rayond, I think its awesome.

Dar
31-07-07, 02:49 PM
To be fair I think dave.gsi went a bit over the top but its his opinon and he's entitled to it.

My honest opinon on the car is I like the paint job, its silver and purple to my eyes. The wheels have always seemed cool in a girly kind of way. The sideskirts sort of let it down a little bit, but thats nothing that cannot be sorted. If I seen a bloke driving it I would think pooflol but then again I think the same about all blokes that drive a MX-5 (seen one today, raving homo I tell thee!).

But at the end of the day I like it:thumb: and don't think its a Nova that anyone should be ashamed of.

As for being different, I hate that motivation when building a car. Lots of cars that I've seen where the owner says its 'different' (one off) are awful! and they will stay that way!! Anyone can be different, it's being different with style thats the trick. Then again if something is different and good it won't stay a one off for long!

31-07-07, 07:15 PM
The mental state scale ranges from sane, to a bit dippy, to stupid, then to completely retarded, but under that is 'special'.

Ive always wondered why 'complete retards' dont try that extra bit harder to become 'special' lol

This car is special. Its tried that extra bit harder, and its popped back into the 'cool' realm IMO lol

Martin
31-07-07, 08:04 PM
id love t drive this.. think of the ladies ;)...

i think every1 with a nova and a gsi kit thats not a gsi shoudl be ashamed of taking th easy way out and not tryin to be diferent at the end of the day it wil either work or not.. if not then its back to the drawing board...


mate i love youre car and if you wanna sell it let me kno...

dave.gsi
31-07-07, 09:28 PM
as stated its my opinion and im entitled to voice it just like anybody else

'nova saloon'..whats so different about my nova is the fact that i dont own one anymore :thumb:


so before i start going off on one again, let me just get the gist of this 'project'.

is it a pisstake?.............by the looks of it no. i mean youve obviously paid out a few hundred notes for the wheels and i seem to remember reading about new panels etc.

so it looks like you geniuinely were after something 'different'....

so why did you just paint over the old front panel complete with fcuk off rust hole at the bottom corner??

now people will take the piss out of not only the way it looks (s.hit), but also they'll be able to take the piss out of the way its built (look this guy has just painted over the rust!)

discuss.......

31-07-07, 10:13 PM
first of all, the button near the bottom right of the keyboard. its called a fullstop. you can make sentances out of them. see how im doing it now?

and a bit of news for you, when you grow up a bit, you'll reaslise that women dont love novas. in fact id say 99.99% of women would think 'what a ****' as you drive down the road. not just you, me included if im behind the wheel of one. maybe all the 'crooze girls' look at you. but then you'll grow out of that in a few years, and all you'll be left with is a rotten nova with stupid wheels.:thumb:

raymond
31-07-07, 10:23 PM
im a painter i dont teach english....... i dont mind your opinion cause its each to there own u mite like big evo 5million body kits and neon lights but that aint for me i painted the car for a laugh for usc if you look at the car its a standard car with silly paint im comfortble enough with my sexuality to driveit so its no harm done when i get bored i could always returnit back to standard it cost me 21quid to paintit it would cost u that in rattle cans to try n paint anythin on your car plus the teddy bears will make a pritty trick coffe table

dave.gsi
31-07-07, 10:31 PM
new bonnet, tailgate, 2 doors, front bumper, back bumper including smoothing it, then a rear arch

add to this list #ronal teddy bears which are pretty rare as their limited edition (thank fcuk for that!)
paint (which, fair dos was prob robbed from work for nowt)
the cost of the actual car
fixing the head gasket problem
mot
tax
insurance

who mentioned ?300?

seems like an expensive pisstake, your boss is ovbiously paying you too muchlol

raymond
31-07-07, 10:48 PM
i dont get paid enough thats y i work long hours doin other jobs for people then i can blow money for the laugh and it is a laugh you just dont seem to have a sense o humour yeah paint was robbed but thats perks of the job head gasket cost me nowt i was owed a favour the cars taxed the cars tested and insurance doesnt comply with the cost of the car it probly stands me at nearly 450 but its only money u cant takeit with u if u cant have a laugh with your money now when do u the fact that other people likeit not you of corse is a bonus makes it worth it

yeah maybe you could but could you get the same attention for your money good or bad iv had a theory since i started paintin cars and thats if you spend loads of money on your car IE some of the new corsas with big body kits on paint it pink people will treatit like marmite thay will either loveit or hateit but its gona stand out a hell of alot more than flip paint at a fraction of the cost true or false cheers coombsey

lol you really are stupid arent you! if you read back (which ive allready suggested) you will see that even the owner himself has admitted that he painted over the front slam panel (complete with rust hole) due to time commitments.

and my post count is high because ive been a member of this site for 5 years, and as most people know, im not shy in saying what i think.

have you checked out corsasport.co.uk? they have plenty of people just like you, i think you'd enjoy it over there
