Wot shall i do peeps??????????
as ya all or most of ya probably read, the pride and joy of my life (nova gsi) as been broken into once again, its getting boring now as its the second time.
Through this my love for the good old GSI is fading quickly and a friend of mine as got a really nice gold Saxo VTS soon to be for sale, well at the end of the year just in time for when my ban's up and i'll be back on the roads , with no alcohol in my system this time (87.5 milligrammes is the legal limit ''i think'' and i got 88 milligrammes. pathetic for a years ban) anyways my mates selling his VTS for £1500 which i think is a bargain.
Theres absolutely nothing wrong with it and he's never had any troubles either, its just sailed through the m.o.t too
Keep my pride and joy or move away from novas all together and try summat new, i've had three cars in total and they've all been novas so i think it definitley could be time for a change but wot does evryone think?? are saxo vts's any good, i know there fast but speed isn't everything in this case

how much for the Nova?

£500 quick sale, needs to go soon as

dude Id do a insurance quote on a vts 1st I paid 600 fully comp with 4 years no claims I'm 22 if you got 0ncb and been banned insurance will rape you with a big one.

But vts are cool I just got rid of mine.they eat driveshafts and have dodgy alarm sensors which tend to go off when they want. And tbh 1500 aint a bargain for a vts bout the going rate

moved - car related thread.

what tax n test on nova mate?????

can pick em up for peanuts nowadays... i'd have moved away from nova's years ago bud lol... deffo with ant tho... if you've had a ban and your wanting a car like that they're definitely gonna pull your pants down for insurance... my insurance on the new car is still £450 fully comp and i've got 3years ncb and its a 1.3 hehe

old cars are a pain in the arse for insurance. a modern small 1.6 car will be a lot faster than a 20 year old nova gte. problem is, insurance doesn't really reflect that.

I'd check your insurance too - I had a 1.6 and fully comp I was paying £1080 with 1 NCB & 3 points at 21.

If your waiting til the end of the year I'd shop around for something you really want, I wouldn't go for something just because its there. Check your insurance quotes on different cars, keep your options open.

getting insured after a ban is hell!

i was payin 1900 for a diesel pug estate at 22 after DD10 ban!

you will struggle to get covered at all, never mind at a low price!

surely the nova is gonna be cheaper than a VTS???

that really you then kell?

iv bin looking at saxo's anyway so it is wot i want, i aint bothered wot kind of insurance it is as well cos im sure that by the time comes i will av saved alot more than wot i need anyway, got a decent enuff job (£1400 a month basic n thats without over time) so surely it wont be hard to save
and sazzle sssshhhhhhhh i love nova's full stop hence the reason iv had 3 and want to carry on aving a few more before im done, deffo gonna av another GSI tho, just want a few years with some other cars now
even if i dnt get this saxo i will just probably get a 1 litre nova and spend 3 n half grand on a c20let anyway so theres just no point cos its all gonna be alot of money for me

conversion aint that expensive these days to convert to c20let..... problem is the engines are mainly high mileage.... re-builds are a must!

so whats on the nova t&t wise? any updated pics with the recent damage etc.....

£3500 conversion at jnc

nah man theres fuck all, i'll take some pics 2moro for ya pal

actually holdon 2 secs iv just took some
