No engine bay pic?

Not always, seen plenty with bad doors/rear arches and nice clean bays.
I'd avoid this one though tbh.

Ewww MK1 :bork: I'd much much MUCH rather have a 106 GTi than a Nova, nova's are shit.
Edit: Read the advert
quote:
Vauxhall Nova, 19000 genuine miles (really 1 little old lady owner), new exhaust and battery, unused for much of its life, new CD/radio, this is the one that the youngster want, it is FAST.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA FAST? AAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA a 1.2 Nova is NOT fast

Who gives a shit about rusty arches...its the front cross member, under headlights, boot corners and chassis legs that are the bastard.

what about battery tray ? bottoms of doors, bottom of wind screen, top of windscreen, bootlid under the glass rubber, rear panel behind the rear bumper, chassis where the rear springs sit? front inner arches as theres no plastic arch liners, sills behind skirts are a favourite aswell
iv had enough novas to say and anyone one PNG will tell you when buying a nova the areas to check are anything made of metal
