the engines gained nearly 15bhp since it was featured in total vauxhall a couple of years ago, and the spec is still the same....wonder if it was still a fresh motor when it was featured.
get it gone breaking it id say, shame though as seems to be a very well built car

7k overpriced? do you have any kind of idea how much the parts put into it would cost?

Irrelevant. Its a £10k Nova. It may well have had £ks spent, but it doesn't mean that its worth that.

yeah but i'm right in what i say.not everyone will know the true value of the parts...its overpriced and one rule in modifying is you never get your money back what you spend

so its worth 2k? its not got a set of speedlines on and tinted rear lights, it has some serious equipment on, a valuation of 2k is quite ridiculous.
i would imagine the gearbox has to be more then 2k alone

Thats most people though. To someone out there, thats the right price for the spec its got. Just because its a Nova doesn't mean its worth nothing. If that engine was in a kit car would you still value it at £2k??

i dont understand your thinking a standard xe nova is worth 2.5k but a nova with 40k spent on it is worth 2k???? he could sell the engine and gearbox for a few thousand on its own. and i dont think he is looking to sell it to someone that doesnt have a clue
