missed this somehow........ very nice job.
Hope that Sport gets the attention they deserve - really nice even in standard spec. I loved having a thrash of a mates - way back.
That shade of green is fantastic! Mucho 8-)ness

Great car - the complete antithesis of a typical Chavved up Nova. This one is all go and no show!

looking at the cars that were on the shoot there are a few mental ones. The Vauxsport one is crazy fast too.

Yeah those v6ers were awesome! especially the turbo'd one! The day was supposed to be a nova thrash covering all specs, from 1.2 to 2.0 turbo/v6 etc. it just so happened that all apart from one were 2.0. Mine will be the second slowest car of the day in the write up, but as dougie from total vauxhall pointed out, mine ran the same times as a new corsa vxr, which i was well chuffed with!

running the same times are a corsa VXR is pretty damn good in a 22 year old car. Sleeper look is definately the way to go for Nova's. FRP - Thats fecking nice. What are the wheels from? The answer is on the tip of my tongue but VRB isnt helping ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Hmmm, think i'm gonna have the gl rims banded now, from 4 1/2" out to 7" and gonna run some 165 60 13 tyres. They'll only be for shows and whatnot, i've purchased a set of rfx's for the road.
