shame about the corsa, i'll still have parts of the dash if you want to split it 
i looked at the nova and firstly thought, hummm. But the more i look, the more i love looks so tidy, what litre is it, spec?

yeah, its a 1.3 8v SR, with a pipercross filter and a fairly quiet stainless system, but... even though its only got 70bhp, its really really nice to drive, and it starts first time, pulls nicely and i love it

thats because i knew it was dying.......
the nova will get the treatment it deserves, theres a few things which need finishing on it, but when they are done, it will be awesome

Sorry to hear about the car Rob Talk about bad timing.
And apart from the slightly too long tail pipe and the painted calipers, drums and bumpers, i'm very much liking your latest purchase.
It looks very straight indeed.
Get a pair of 40s on there now mate.
BTW, whats' all the blue gear strewn around the engine bay?

the blue stuff is just random wiring covering, it will be coming off
exhaust will be sorted asap
also, the drums will be black, anbd the bumpers look really good in the flesh
and if i can find some 40s, i will snap them up
