£1500 seems cheap but suppose it needs a bit of money spending on some new wheels, repairing arch and bumper and then respray in a decent colour.
Quite like it apart from the Whale Tail

Isn't that the Mattig kit? I'm sure I read that there were only about 6/7 of them left, and that was about 12 years ago...
The spolier is part of the compete kit, which don't forget, was pretty well styled for its time.

My mates cousin had a red B-reg Nova SR, with the shite brown interior, and he had green SR 3-spoke wheels, with green fido-dido stickers in the rear windows!
We used to think it was ACE!
Oh, the shame!!
