Vauxhall Nova Database/Register
Seen this on a few other sites, may as-well have a stab at making our own version. Ok, we have the features section, but alot of the plates are Blanked e.t.c
There is loads of info you could add... But maybe Just the following...
Scrap or Alive !?
REG
Original Model + Trim (if known)
Colour (original if known, current + Date, current + Date..)
Engine ( + Approx Date of change - If known)
NL Owner (current and previous If Applicable)
+ (I.e Full bare-shell Rebuild'02, TV Feature'06)
- (i.e Serious rear-end Shunt'04)
Mine for Example..
J379 PEC
TRIM - Mk2 1.2 LUXE
ENGINE - E16SE '05
COL - Tescano Red
NL - Nick
+ Front End rebuild + High Spec Engine Rebuild'06

Or let's say you own F450 MHT, It was a GTE. It was standard, and you fitted it with a 2.0 16v. It was Starmist Black, but iyou've given it a a full Rebuild and has been sprayed Glacier White(2004). You bought it from BOB on NL and your name is Dave. However, it has been in a front end impact in the past.
F450 MHT
TRIM - MK1 GTE
ENGINE - C20XE '04
COL - Starmist Black , Glacier White '04
NL - BOB, DAVE
+ REBUILD + RESPRAY '04
- Moderate Front End accident '03
All the Previous info, like Previous Colours, Previous Engine code (except standard), Previous Owners will be in italics, and the current and correct info is in normal type. Reading left to right.
Could Be interesting to collate all this info, for Scrap cars, Simply the REG will do.
The benefits are obvious, you can instantly gain some loose info on the history of a car your looking to buy e.t.c. Also find the previous NL owners (if they're active), track the progress of old cars ! For Posotive points, prehaps it could be restrained to PROPER engine rebuilds (not just a new cam or a headgasket), Full Resprays, Full Rebuilds (panelwork), Mag Features. Not " 2 new wings'04 or something.
All this is just an idea, but thought i'd put up a framework !
