I recently had a little smash in my nova, and I need some new parts (I just can't bring myself to get rid of it). Does anyone know a cheap dealer I could get the parts from or is anyone selling them here?

I need a bonnet, a front bumper, an indicator (front drivers side) a small back panel window (driver's side) and possibly a door (driver's side).

Any ideas?

You'd be best off putting a post in the Wanted forum for this, you should be able to source these bits second hand without too much bother.

What Nova is it you got? Bits like bumpers will be different if you have a performance Nova (GTE/SR Mk1, GSI Mk2).

As mentioned, put a post in the Wanted section but be sure to state which year and model Nova you have.

I've just got a K-reg 1.2i hatchback nova, it's nothing special but for a 16 year old car it's only done 50,000 miles and I love it, first car thing I suppose! Thanks for your help!

Well I've found them from a dealer for £170, but to be honest, thats probably more than the car is worth!

Bonnet - £30
Front bumper - 10
Indicator - £10
Door (driver's side) - £25 - £35

Don't know what you mean by ''a small back panel window''

Anyway all that comes to £75 tops.

The small back panel window is the tiny window thats next to the main back window if you see what i mean. I didn't really know what else to call it.

This dealer wanted £70 for the bonnet alone, so i think I was getting mugged off somewhere... :)

No, I don't mean that, as an example, if you click on this link:

it's the smallest window on the side at the back. (this isn't my car by the way!)
