Evening all,

Just had a search for a standard white nova from j Reg onwards but they seem to be gettting harder and harder to find these days.

I remember back in the day they where all over the place.

am sure il find one

well you've made it difficult on yourself trying to find a J reg onwards because K reg was the switch over year for the corsa so you will be looking for a while.

yep ojc informed us all that later novas were made with lower grade steel so rot easier, but it does just take time to find a good one, i find the best ones come up in the local papers as they are usually owned by old people who dont really know where to sell them

i managed to find a 48k 3 owner nova, in silk violet on a J reg about 20 minutes away. Tiny bit of arch rust, but immaculate apart from that.

£200, there are bargains to be had

MK1 Nova's were made with better steel so they are usually in better condition.

There is a few for sale on pngclub, including a 2 door loon shell for £200 ono
