    Lee please drive it to Billing this year, I'd love to see it.

    Also would be a good place to get it seen if you fancy selling it?

    Got someone interested at the moment at £5k but I will be reducing the spec slightly at that, would need £6k to leave it as it is.

    Might sound a lot of money for an old Nova but been keeping an eye on recent selling prices for Gsi's and discussed it with a few mates on here and that is the conclusion we came to.

    I have had the pleasure of going out in this car and I was grinning like a Cheshire Cat, I like everyone else am gutted it doesn't get out and about but understand where Lee is coming from when he says he has no desire to use it. I know it's his favourite car as his other two brave the elements all year round whilst this stays dry in the garage, and I also know how much thought and deliberation will go into the decision weather to part with it or not and I'd imagine that it's not about the first person to wave six grand under his nose that will get the pleasure of owning it, I think it's more about preserving the car and it receiving the money no object care that its had for the last ten years or so. This car has also enlightened me that despite us all being interested in modified cars that we do not all enjoy the same aspects of building and restoring them, I personally hate cleaning them and skinning my knuckles trying to complete a project, whilst I enjoy the driving and attention of nostalgic people who comment, Lee is the other end of the spectrum, as anyone who knows him will vouch, every weekend without fail he is lying in a pool of oil or getting snowed on with his socket set in hand. All that I know is who ever does make the grade is going to have one of the best Gsi's in the country to enjoy when ever they see fit

    Lee, if it was me with that car, personally I wouldn't sell it, I was sorn it on axel stands in the garage under a cover and sit on it for a few more years... Then try it out again, see if you still love it, and go from there, I would hate to let go of such a good car, it's the only reason it was easy to let go of my track car, I didn't use it or want to keep it any longer, but it took almost 3 year's to get to the point of selling.

    I do hope you do what's right for you mate.
