I want this Nova
I've had 3 in the past and would love another but you just dont get any good ones now. I loved my last 1989 1.5TD.
My other money pits, I mean classics.
4.2L V8 Range Rover Classic LSE (even has classic in it's name so no arguing on this one please).
Also..........

4.1L Rover V8 Porsche 924.
(best to watch the video right to the end, and turn the volume up nice and loud)
Re: your other classic?
that Nova is sooo nice! they go for silly money now. prob 10k + for that. what is the turbo motor?
and yes, they have come out the other side of chav now. even so, i'd keep a burberry cap in the car for when it's driven, just for effect!!
i see more of my ex- classic the ur quattro than i do nova's on the road.

Re: your other classic?

Turbo motor is out of Calibra, it also has the Calibras 6 speed gearbox. Dread to think how much the car owes me over the years but glad people like it.

Re: your other classic?
I only got my twos, '85 1a and '89 1b but I've always grown up with classic mg's.
My dads 1960 MGA Roadster 1600
Not got a good pic of my mums 1972 MGB GT, Old English White with Chrome Wire Wheels, just behind it is my dad's old MG Midget he swapped for the MGA, the silver thing behind it is a MGA Le Mans Replica with a Rover V8.

Re: your other classic?
I'm following aw11rally's thinking... one of my other cars says classic on it, therefore it must be!!
And no, that spoiler isn't a permanent feature

Re: your other classic?
Not quite enough posts for photos yet, but I have a bit of a thing for late 80s cars, so previous vehicles have been Mk2 Polos, 205s and an AX GT. Also got a classic piece of design, Lotus Seven replica, with a Suzuki bike engine it it.
My new classic
I've jumped into bed with another 'classic' while the mk1.5 daily drive is getting welded back together (I clutch kicked the front torque mount right off the chassis).
£120 Mk3 Golf GTI with slight gearbox issues, 1st 2nd and 3rd are ok(ish) 4th 5th and reverse are extremely temperamental.
Engine and box coming out today, nice new shiney engine and box going in on Monday hopefully (£140 for a front clip with all the desirable mods, filter, leads, polybushed, ARB, etc etc).

My first car:
205 Hillclimb / Sprint car:
AX GT (if anyone hasn't driven one... get one while you still can. Unbelievably good fun!):
GSXR engined Aries Locost (currently awaiting new engine :-/ ):
Re: your other classic?
Here's my 306 GTi6 (a modern classic!) with a little bit of extra oomph under the bonnet...
Re: your other classic?
Looks like a blower on the front of the engine Matt
