There used to be a Violet Nova GSi round the corner from me...........back in the day, some old women drove it she must have been about 90

Wonder what happened to it

There are a heck of a lot of very clean nova's around and many more being restored my nova sport being one of them . Im happy with having the best of both worlds. Ive got the nova as my show car and the corsa as a daily driver (thats slowly being done up, like they all do)

Heres a pic of my nova sport (just excuse the wheels needing powdercoating)

Lol dont need handles mate, the reasoning behind it all was so that i didnt have to be cutting around everything for the stickers wanted totally smooth lines for the stickers. Im very happy with the car ive now got. Im fully aware of the rarety of it but didnt want a standard car.

Like i say money allowing il get another and restore it to totally standard and have both.
