Hi all,
As stated on my wip thread a short while ago Ive decided to part with the nova! I have new ideas/ventures that Id like to attempt and need the cash to do so hence my decision. I feel Ive gone as far as I can with this car and have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of owning this car and watching it progress from just a clean nova to one that is considered to be up there with the best out there. Its only seen dry weather use since being built up from a shell approx 5 years ago. Ive done my best to make sure every part that has been added or maintenance that has been carried out has been done so with the upmost care and attention to detail. People who know me and my work know how fussy I am! Ive also tried my best to price the car fairly considering its high specification and stunning condition throughout. It currently has around 11 months mot and is taxed until the end of september at which point it will as usual come off the road for winter. Every body panel is immaculate and the underside has never had any issues come mot time either and is heavily waxoiled throughout as are all cavitys I could get at! Id really like to see the car go to some one who will treasure it as I have. Its never wanted for anything and If I cant get good money for it then I wont sell and just carry on enjoying it so please no silly offers. A quick insight see's the engine/box build recieipts run into approx 3k alone just for parts/carbon fibre at over 1.5k etc! You can soon see where the money and effort have gone. please read my wip thread on the links below to see the cars progression and or pm/u2u for anymore details.
Price is £5250 ono (slightly negotiable as there may be a part or two Id like to keep but this can be discussed etc)
