Used Vauxhall Nova for Sale near Columbus, IN

One of my first cars. After my 950cc Ford Fiesta, the 1.2 Nova seemed light years ahead in performance. It also scored on refinement compared to the Ford. Overall, a very well finished small saloon. Sad to see it go!

Handled exceptionally well, very light-weight but felt like sitting in a tin can. The fact that it was a sports edition probably helped. Build quatlity not excellent, but fine for the type of car. Reasonably cheap to run around town, not so good on long journeys. Parts very cheap - biggest bill less than £300.

Very Agile and responsive for what it was, had funny handling and was very reliable and topped out at 108 mph which is faster than a standard mini metro and the nova has a smaller engine (Nova 993cc/Mini 997cc)

great starting point for modifying, ease of parts, but finding a good one nowadays is rare. seriously fun in standard form but to get the full potential from this car spend money and get the 2 litre 16 valve engine

I Think there brilliant little cars. There built to last and if you look after them properly, will go on for years. Performance aint too bad, with the SRi good for about 120mph, I had the 1.2i Luxe Plus so it only had a top end of 115mph, but the handling is great and braking is quite good as well. Appearance aint too bad but u can change that with a few after market parts. These little things cost hardly anything to run so they are good when it comes to cost of ownership. Fun Factor: 8/10
