That is worth 10k of anyones money. A fully restored car like that with many propper parts. if u dont just glaze over the detail and really start thinking what something like that would cost to build then i def thin its worth 10k. Its a modded nova ffs so of course 95% of people are gonna think its not worth it but the fact is there are people out there willing to pay alot of money for cars like that, mabee not 25k but certainly more than some people are thinking.
Sayin that i wouldnt ever spend anywhere near that on a nova myself lol

the only thing thats had any real money spent on it is the engine, which could be built for about 3k without the engine the car isnt really anything.
luckybs old corsa had a higher spec engine imo and he sold his corsa for 8k years ago

possibly, still your not going to sell it for what it cost to build
if that car had a normal gsi nova lump in it would probably go for 1.5k maybe 2, the engine in second hand form like that is probs worth about 3, seriously, 5k max for that car, seriously there nothing really special about it, not like its had a bareshell rebuild been seam welded etc

going back to the silly 25k asking price, i think that guy probably thinks a turbo has never been fitted to a nova and is the only one like it in the world etc

Need to keep off the crack pipe mario !
I would say steve is correct with the 4k max.
Its nova at the end of the day.
Put a Let engine in my Lada Leep does that make it worth £10k

You obviously have no clue, if you knew anything you would be able to tell thats not any old let swapped out a 144k calibra. That engine is the real deal, thousands spent on it alone without even starting on the bodywork or interior.

Could name quite a few which in standard form would destroy it.
Or also many modded ones which are newer and cheaper 
Is this because you have a Nova project, going to be spenind money on it and hoping for some good returns when you 65.

Name a few then? I ran a 250bhp corsa which ripped apart just about anything it came up against, so i cant imagine what a 450bhp nova would be like. Does power to weight ratio not mean anything to you?
