    Bit like Mk1/Mk2 Escorts...a 5 door is still a Nova and can be modified exactly the same, but in the end will never be as desirable as a 3 door hence are cheaper to buy

    tbh I did. needs some "modernising" though. Quick rack, a steering wheel that doesn't look like it's off the titanic, Ate calipers, suspension and better tyres. Still Has the original Michelins on the back!!
