    Thought you had it painted a while back? Hope you'll do the under sides yellow? That would look ace.
    Really love this car, looks so good. Glad you binned the sticker bumper things too.

    Get the astra on the road imo

    Saves battering up the nova as a daily and you'll be able to strip it down to do the work you want to

    Edd I'd love too, but sad as it is i really cant aford to , just the tax for the astra is almost all 3 bills for the nova, and i dont use a car daily, im lucky if i use it weekly, as i cycle to work and back, and the missus drives most places.

    Clean and subtle. Best kind of Novas IMO.

    With regards to the carb, take it off take loads of pictures and make notes of how many turns when you remove jets etc. Get some carb cleaner. Got access to an air compressor?

    They're over there with their new toys. Someone brought them in. No idea who bought them though.....

    Oh i thought there where photos of the quarters being painted a while back? Or was that the saloon?
    Doing it your self is the best way, as it's quite time consuming. So you can just sit under there at weekends.
    Cut 2K out the wedding and spend it on the Nova... THen drive the Nova to the wedding. And yes i do love it!

    that rear quarter was my fault, it was when i reversed into a low bollard.
    The wedding isn't going to be an issue, i just don't spend moneyi don't have etc, ive always spent cash i have spare, tbh these days id rather spend it snowboarding..

    Ah, that's what i remember then. tbh that is the best way, spend what you have, not what you might have one day...

    Snow boarding is very cool, but cruising in the Nova in the summer sun with your fav choon on is way better.
