I really fancy one of these as a little play thing.

Mate used to have one with standard wheel trims and a 1.2 badge on the back. Boy did that shock a few people.

Now that I like!!!!!!

Always been a Q car fan, and like the 2l twin cam eng, sounds lovely when carb'd

Always fancied a Mk1 astra GTE in white or black, the old school recaros the box shape

Imagine spending £40k on a high performance car and not being able to shake this thing off, imagine the grin on the nova driver!!!

Good on yer fella

Ahh those were the days,

I had a 1.4SR as my first car, it was lowewred on konis, 15s, cammed, 4 branch manifold ashley system with a K&N lol.

It went like stink cos they weight funk all.. and i know how well they go with the twin cam in em.

I got taken out in a Courtenay built 300bhp turbo version.... it was bloody mental.

Great little cars, Nice one

Nice one. Can't say I like Nova's in general, But I love the sleepers.
Did you do the conversion yourself?
