u realy have no idea about novas do you,

a lady owner nova for 14 years is very very rare,

she isnt asking the world and how many women u see under the bonnet cleaning???

outside looks very clean and for that money is well worth a look,

clean engine bay isnt essential, no rust or serious corosion is way more improtant to me on one of these,

6k for 15 years - so its got 90k on.

New battrey and rust proffing as well - nice.

I don't know if I'd go to 800 quid but its certainly worth nearly that to the right buyer.

I'd give her £4-500 cash so I could rip all the crap off of it and start my next project.

I'd pay £500 for it, maybe go to £700. I don't think a Nova around here would last 5 mins before it was nicked though

I think it needs the right owner to clean it up a bit and look after it.

I think Ojc should buy it I really like your Nova

The engine don't seem to be pissing out much oil, look at the exhaust manifold & the HT plugs, they're not caked in oil... Infact, i'd be tempted to agree with Ollie, saying that it's waxoil.
