Excellent, good find!, bosscav, thats the actual kingdom developments car, the owner of the company is selling it.

It actually looks in good condition. And to be honest its definatly worth buying. Look close and you'll see there's no smoothing bumpers into the bodywork etc. So the front, rear, sides and spoilers could all be replaced with GSI items, and the wheels changed to some nice 16's.

Interior is nice, engine bay looks very tidy, just needs a clean and the rocker cover sorting. The bonnet vent could be lived with.

I remember this car from when it was the Revs cover car. I can't believe I actually thought that looked good back then - thankfully my tastes have matured. Still seems a bit of a waste for the car to have sat in storage for 8 years.I wonder what ever happened to Kingdom?

I kind of agree with Keith, not all of it is totally distatsefull, but still I'd sooner buy a nice Nova to start with than a 'nasty Nova'.

You'd still want it sprayed before being seen dead in it.

looks like a clean and tidy nova.

1st thing to ditch is bodykit and SPOILER lol

And the paint.

It would have aged better if it was bare metal.

I like it, always have done and always will do.
Id never personally bodykit any car, but to me that nova was a milestone to what can be done when let loose.
Nice to see a car that go most people into novas still alive. :cool:

The Nova that got me into Nova's again

Always liked this Nova even though its over the top

I think it will make some nice money as well...

Would it be classed as Old Skool ?

See thats the kind of Nova that would make me say...

'no I funkin hate Novas' tongue in cheek. Its a total abortion tbh. From the generation of look at me! I'm a bright colour, I'm doing 150mph sat still.

I'd rather walk & thats the truth.

If you drove it hard, half the body kit would fall off & when the bits did fall off, the car would actually go faster!

i've known kitted up cars nailing it and bumpers falling off.

to low and when you slam on the brakes you lose the front bumper and drive over it lol

I have to admit looking at it now, its gash! But when i was younger and first got mine i loved it! Would be very nice to see that at some shows though, I mean if people are honest that and a few others, did get a few people into Nova's!lol

This car is the original "kingdom developments" car! so to take off the kit would be silly, as it is the kit that makes the car what it is. Looks a bit much, but you couldnt change it!
