THE LISTING

About this vehicle

1993 Vauxhall Nova 1.6 GSi

An excellent example of a rare and highly sought-after Vauxhall Nova GSi.

The car underwent a full restoration during 2020–2021, including a full glass-out respray, underside coating and paint, and a comprehensive rebuild using numerous NOS parts wherever possible. The quality and extent of the work would make this car extremely expensive to replicate today.

Since the restoration, it has primarily been used for local shows and events, including the NEC classic car show. It is a well-known car within the Nova community and is presented to a genuine show winning standard.

This is a turn-key example and could be driven home with confidence following collection. A genuinely usable classic that continues to perform very well in the current classic car market.

Specification

  • 1993 Vauxhall Nova 1.6 GSi
  • 75,000 miles
  • Mistral Grey
  • 5 former keepers
  • Private registration K666 NOV included

Period Additions

The car retains a largely standard specification but benefits from the following period-style additions:

  • 16” Speedline Alessio alloy wheels
  • Bilstein shock absorbers and springs
  • Piper cat-back exhaust
  • OMP strut braces
  • Clear Hella side indicators

Everything else is standard, present and works as it should, although the fuel gauge can be temperamental and the other gauges work but are not always perfectly accurate.

Recent Work

The car has recently had approximately £2,200 spent, including:

  • MOT-related work
  • Wheel bearings
  • Brakes overhauled
  • Full Piper cat-back exhaust and new fixings
  • New catalytic converter
  • £600 worth of NOS headlights
  • New battery

The car will also be supplied with a fresh service for its new owner.

The underside has recently been professionally steam cleaned and clear-sealed. Photographs are available showing the underside and its condition.

This is a very rare opportunity to purchase a Nova GSi in this condition. It is a highly sought after model, with the major restoration and costly work already completed.

The result is a genuine show standard usable classic that will most likely hold if not increase in value.

Viewing is highly recommended.

Test drives are welcome with proof of your own insurance covering the full value of the vehicle. Professional inspections and ramp inspections are also welcomed.

A rare opportunity to acquire a properly restored, well-known and show-standard Nova GSi.
