pmsl, so if people make them shiney it makes a car a classic, thats pap, they do it as its a cheap car thats light-ish, and can get a good engine is it! some of them are nice ill give them that but no never a classic! not like it was a pioneering car is it!

yeah but calling a nova a classic is a bit daft. as much as i like vauxhalls they will never be a classic to me, a classic is a car that is pioneering or fantastic is some way?!

Nova is not a classic, neither is a series 1 ERST, but when they are as old and in as good condition as mine they have to have appreciation
