Emerdale, one of the pikey Dingle familys relations came to visit in a Red SR IIRC, was in an episode around 4 years ago

On another note, caught a glimpse of Home & Away today, and in the background appeared these guys -

True. I think they used a GTE to simulate the actual crash (Mandy's) but her car was the Silk violet GSi & it was damaged in order to do further fiming.

There was a Nova or two in an old episode of Morse. On the forecourt of an 80's Vauxhall dealer.

Btw there are loads of Novas in chases on police camera action etc, not as many as Astra GTE's though. lol
