Simps' Nova Turbo - MIG Billing Car Of Show 2007
Well after 6 years the time has come to part with my baby to move on to pastures new. I've taken the car as far as I want to and achieved what I wanted to do which was build a car that was well-known and respected and to win Car of the Show at Billing of which it did last year on the MIG stand.
I would personally describe the car as being in very good condition. I would like to say it is excellent but at the end of the day it is a 14yr old car and does have blemishes.
The car has been dry stored for the last 4 yrs and barely covering 2500 miles a year.
The history of the car and the last years work/modifications can be seen on the thread below and clearly documented.

I have recently had both bumpers, skirts and petrol cap resprayed in a textured matt black finish which looks loads better. New pics will be added soon to show the difference.
I am looking for ?4,995 and I'm in no real hurry to sell. Private plate has been removed and not sold with the car.
PM me or email for further details simps100@hotmail.com. Car is located near Norwich.
