NOVA GSI SILVER - Ex Condition - K REG

This is an old thread I know, but I was looking on Gumtree and there was a Nova GSi for sale in Belfast, with the picture at the top of this thread listed.

I cant post the link, but if you go to Gumtree Belfast, Cars for Sale and type in Nova, you will see it.

Do you think this is the same guy, or is it maybe just someone who has stick on a generic GSi picture (it is the first one you get when searching through Google)

Any help much appreciated. I'm not a Vauxhall nut or a Nova nut, but I do valeting/detailing and I want a car to use as a show car basically and thought a nice neat GSi would look the business.

Thanks,

William

IIRC that car was a botched and a rotter repair. (Could be wrong) What I do know though is majikagsi or wtf he's called is not to be trusted mate. Google him if you want more info on his dealings.

As you say, it's possible it's just a generic pic in the Gumtree ad. but it wouldn't have hurt them to mention that. Email him and ask if it's that exact car etc.

If it is I would stay well away. Anything that is related to him should be avoided at all costs.

I'm sure others will reply here with more accurate info. CBA reading back through the thread lol

Sounds like the same BS from the same guy? In the original ad. on here it's had a full new engine, and in the Gumtree ad. a top end rebuild. Also mentions Astra GSi wheels and in the pic is on Comps. Nothing adds up!

Thanks for checking that out. That's why I came on here - see I wouldn't know the difference between GSi wheels and Compomotives. At the same time though, it could just be that he has used the first picture he found (which still seems a little un-trustworthy anyway) - just thought the description (especially the top end rebuild) sounded too similar to what is on here.

The internet is great like - look at what I've found out already. Maybe he is living in Belfast. Maybe I could track him down and "accidentally" tell you lot where to find him

LOL I have no personal issues with the guy but have read horror stories about his engine 'conversions' etc.

I'm sure there's a few people that would like to have a word with him dude! If it is the car in the pic. It's strange to think he has kept it all this time and not managed to rob some other poor buyer!

Agreed on the net. If you have the time and patience there's a lot to be learned lol

You cant rip people off forever and get away with it :roll: .

Im sure in his mind hes a good repairer and found a way to make some money.

But will he continue or do something else.?

Just went on to Piston Heads there - same car, different picture angles, different location - somewhere in England I think. He's looking 1300-1400 on Pistonheads (5 weeks ago) and 800 on Gumtree Belfast.

Seems a little fishy.

BTW, as I said I'm no Nova nut (I'm actually a bit of a F**d Nut) but there are some amazing looking Novas on here. And whats even better, they don't look tacky like alot of them I have seen. Real credit to you guys.

the car pictured is my old one, i bought it from majika over two years ago and boy was it fooked!!
it is now white as you can see in my avatar << and is still local to me so its not in belfast!
