Stick the engine in it
Oh no, what have I done. Nova's are not as I remember them :cry::cry::cry:
I think my day job may have spoiled me a little too much to appreciate the charm of Luton's finest. This one may find it's way to the for sale section a bit sooner than expected :(
Fit some decent suspension, brakes and tyres /wheels first, not surprised you don't like it with all that OE crap on it
Oli, just put some cav slabs on it in the style of the trims, add some billy suspension, and ate brakes, youll soon see a d ifferent side to it.
But if not drop me line if your thinking of selling..

What feels so 'different' Oli?
I think I'm just spoilt at work. I've become accustomed to driving some of the finest cars made. So jumping into a Nova to head home, just doesn't fill me with delight. The steering, brakes, suspension, driving position, engine performance, refinement etc etc are all poor by today's standard, let alone compared to the Ferrari/Porsche/Jag/Range Rover etc I may have been driving at work. My current daily is an Alpina D3 and that is excellent in almost every aspect (IMO obviously).
I'm not sure what I was expecting really, I just have very fond memories of my old nova. But short of spending thousands creating DHDev Mk2, it would never be the same. If I was to spend that sort of time/money, sadly I think I'd rather invest it into a more modern/RWD car :(
Harsh reality of growing up and maturing in your car taste - Happens to us all :(
