That’d be the perfect stable mate for my Antibes. As my driveway’s full of trench and assorted building materials and with one car already in storage it’s not going to happen though. I really hope it doesn’t get ruined by some cruise idiot.EDIT If it's still there and someone else wants a hand fetching it I'm in (assuming no passport's required).

That's got to be one of those con things. Nova Sports are uber rare and very 'collectable'.Take it it's a passport job to get over there? I'd absolutely love that but still can't believe it's true.

Hmm... I smell bull shit, Contact Matt hey?, Thought your selling it for your late husband?, The sport model is mega rare and collectable as already been said so I'd be high suprised if it really existed.

Or some sort of revenge thingy - I once advertised a 4 year old BMW 3 series, 12000 miles, leather seats - due to bereavement for £3000 and put my parents nasty neighbours phone number on the advert. I seem to remember asking people to phone before 8am due to work.....They changed their phone number shortly after that

my brother in law had a Nova Antibes up til about 3 years ago, when he came to sell it nobody wanted it, yet he was asking 200 quid for it.

 

all in all it was in good orginal condition, barring the usual rust spots, and had been owned by an old woman before him so had done less than 50k. id have taken it off him if I had space (I had 5 cars at the time as I do now!) - kicking myself now that I didnt make some room for it as he eventually sold it for 150 quid to an older bloke who turned it into a van.

I must admit it does all smell a bit of rat, but strange things do happen. Some scrappage victims are easily worth more than 2k. Might be worth further investigations for someone.

defo too good to be true.

No passport required, unless you're a foreigner. Carrickfergus is in Northern Ireland. I've lived in Carrick for 30 years and I've never seen one of these, much less this one.

Also, if it was bought brand new from Ballyrobert, it would have a County Down registration, not a GB one.Male cow droppings detected.

I called after a car like that recently. The car description fitted, but it was most defo looking for a new home, free or otherwise....

It should tell you when you ring it it's a premium rate call, and give you the chance to ring off. Anybody gonna try for this? If it's genuine I bet it's gone already.....

Staffordshire Moorlands, but got mates in Ellesmere Port so find myself around that way fairly often. Usually across the water in Liverpool seeing bands 3 or 4 times a month so I'm fairly at home in The North West.

Straight to answerphone, a sure sign it's either genuine and gone, or in some way fake.....

It never used to. About 15 years ago I looked into premium rate number and the cost of running them. It was around £50pm depending on how much you wanted to charge and any add ons etc and you could charge anything up to £50 for each call you received. I was thinking that i could just blank call thousands of people and if they called back they would have been charged £20. Unfortunately i live my life by a rule 'Dont do to other people what you would not like to have done to yourself' and did not go through with it. Was watching Watchdog a couple of years later and they had some guy who had made an estimated 2.5m out of doing this exact thing. Problem is they could not prosecute as what he had done was not illegal. Most annoyed. I would have used that money for good.**Or i might have spent it on drugs and high class prostitutes.

[FredTransit]

yeah it tells you now, we have a couple of 0709 numbers that are national call rate, it's obligatory to be told when you ring them, most annoying as we used to have an 0700 number too that people used to mistake for a freephone number.

Unlucky, lolzers

Did the Nova Sport come with a set of 20mpg carbs in the boot for you to fit some time later?
