    Default My Nova, 1989 1.0 'Jet Black' (UPDATE: One year anniversary buff-up shots :)

    Hi, I'm new to PNG (though I apparently created an account here 3 years ago!)

    Just thought I'd introduce myself and my Nova. It's only very slightly customised and it still has its stock engine and suspension. '89 poverty-spec example, black, F-plate and the powerful OHV-engine

    I know it's not going to win any prizes for looks, or mods or owt, but I'm proud of it, it's my second Nova in 4 years - first car was a red 1200 merit.

    There's plenty of pics of it out there (need to post 15 times first ), Google F98 WVV to see it!

    Nice, I like black Novas.

    Wasn't 'Jet Black' an Austin Mini special edition from the same era? I think the decals were the same aswell!

    Looks great, I haven't seen a lot of black nova's about.
    Edit: Decals look the same

    Yeah, they are Mini stickers, and the coachlines too! I thought it was a different way of customising it
