I'll see if I can dig some more out - a turquoise blue Nova with a C20LET from Fast Car in 1995 rings a bell.

Nice, my collection of Novas ( i have every mag feature from 97 on) Starts a bit later than yours...

I'll have a look through mine tonight if anyone is interested? I have all the fast car mags

I remember that feature I was 15 lol!1600 engine, cav brakes, half a mild bodykit, graphics equalled a front page back then hahaha!

Very very tame spec but I like it

Here's Andy - not a very helpful guy back then - when I was putting in my F28 he was the only other Nova running an F28 and refused to tell me how to sort the tie bar issue out :thumb:
