Looks lovely, I wouldn't buy it though as bike carbs seem like the pikey method to me 
Lot of money for a Nova too

I'd have another one over my Coraa anyday, just so hard to find a decent one!

Redtop aint worth £3k with that spec is what i was saying shep.
£3k aint too much for the car imo, although interior looks a bit untidy.
As long as shell is ok, probably worth it. Like the filler in the inside of the door shut.

Tbh it's like most older cars these days. It's what you're willing to pay. Some may find it ridiculous, others may find it a good deal. If I had the chance, I'd sell the Paxo right now and get that

Now I've seen the pics of it, it seems like it's got quite a spec 
The proof of the pudding is in the rust though, it might be rotten as a pear underneath.
