Want a Nova? Want a Caravan? You need the Nova Caravan then. If anyone ever sees one of these for sale you totally HAVE to tell me. I shan't hold my breath though...http://www.opel-corsa-a.com/index_e.php ... Artz_e.htmHow ace is that? :D

That Nova Estate looks really stylish, perhaps not surprisingly resembling a Mk2 Cavalier Estate scaled down. Although the production figures don`t offer much hope to anyone trying to get hold of one.

 

Not quite the same thing but it might satisfy the craving for a Vauxhall Estate that we never got in this country:

Looks pretty good. I know the continent got a 3-dr Rekord estate around that time (we got it here as a van); up until recently continental Europe supported sales of big 2-dr cars quite strongly - Sierra, Mk2 Granada etc.

Definate resemblance to the Mk2 Cav estate as you say.

If I were any good at bodywork and shizzles I'd make my own Mk3 estate for a laugh. Can't believe they never actually made (or at least sold) one to my knowledge.

Pretty pissed off a few years back when on holiday in Norfolk and saw a Nova cabriolet for sale at a good price in a garage and couldn't afford it.

That is almost deifinitely a J Car (Cavalier/Ascona). The doors certainly are as it has the Cav's barrel sided look and not the flat sides of a Nova. The Cav Estate was only ever a 5 door (it used Holden rear end bits) so I guess this nis a prototype unless the Ascona was available as an Estate? I didn't think there was an Ascona wagon of any sort?

Trust me, trying to get to the bottom of the GM J-car is a long and exhaustive business, it`s not just the bodystyles, its all the different noses and names it had. In years to come Oldjapanesecar.com will have fully documented every car from the far east ever made, right down to homebuilt specials from the 1920s, and I`ll still be finding Mk2 Cavaliers with crazy front ends that I`d never heard of.

Isuzu Aska.

 

Pondering the GM J-car thing must while away the minutes between punters?

 

The 3dr Bluebird was one of two imported by Nissan UK, they were sold elsewhere in Europe and I assume they came here for Type Approval. I think the various European importers shared out this work and each did different elements of it, as a result an importer might have to do some on a car they probably had no intention of selling. For this reason there were a few rogue specification cars trundling around which they must have sold on – different engines, diesels, coupes etc.

 

I saw the Bluebird in Suffolk one Christmas Day, managed to get a couple of pic’s (post them later, unless Ratdat has copies to hand?) but didn’t talk to the owner, stupid really as I saw him disappear into a house (I was being considerate with it being Christmas). DVLA suggests it’s gone now anyway.

Nova "Caravan" is pointless just like the lardarse Kia Pride Kombi
