Why is it that every while or so I'm happy with my car , and then I keep getting the idea of buying a red Nova and doing it all the same as my corsa !!
Anyone else crave Novas ?

yes! i had one as my first car, but it was only a 1.2, always wondered what a 1.6/2.0 would be like!
plus, there is the fact that you see so many chav owned ones going around you feel like its your duty to save just one and do it properly!

That's the question that I'm posing to myself at the moment. I daren't add up what I've spent on my Nova. Recently it's really been getting me down. I've had the car for 6 years or so and I've got it to a stage that I'm happy with, but now I want to own something that's just as fun to drive, yet looks good and gets respect on the road. Even though you can have a Nova capable of going faster than all manner of cars, it's still 'just a Nova' at the end of the day.

I've said it before and I'll say it again...Nova's are nothing but old rusty square boxes on wheels. Duno what the obsession is

If I was to sell the Nova it won't be going till the end of the year, plus it would get broken and sold in parts, couldbn't bare to see the whole car in the hands of someone else, lol.
