Remember this car from the Max Power era. Saw it at Max Power Live at the NEC about 15 years ago. I believe the reg on it was P1NKY.

Hated it then and hate it now +o(

i have to laugh at the number of people going "thats crap" etc
it's the same people and age group that thought it was superb many years ago, when it sported the number plate P1NKY

i have to say, yes my tastes have changed and it's not to my taste any more (i even had the same kit at one point for one of my nova's)
but i wouldnt go as far as to say it's crap! and thats for one reason and one reason only! without cars like this, the cruise scene, modified scene etc would never of got to be as big as it has etc! it's things like this that back in the day when kit's were the most awesome thing around, and to smooth and euro a car people didnt understand so majority said no to, and now the phasing and transition of what looks good has changed again, in reverse of what it was back then!

:scream:Your wrong lad, "PINKY" was Kingdom developments Show car and actually looked really well back in the day,had 18s and was a complete animal engine wise(y)

Agree with Bibby, the style will all be changed again so enjoy the euro/oem/minimal look if your into it now cause the fashion police will hang you by your balls in 3 or 4 years time if your seen dead in such machines :cool:

No, this was P1NKY

I actually didnt mind P1NKY back in the day, I would never have done that to any of my Nova's, but I respected it for what it was. Those pictures are from Ebay when it was for sale about 2 years ago.

The Pink Nova on P/H is awful, seen it at a Trax in 2008/9. It may be full of expensive ice, but really its only worth that it would break for.

I'd realisticly only get about £7k for my Nova, but it would sell quicker than that Pink thing lol!

I stand corrected on P1NKY then. It was also..+o(. Never liked that style then Bibby. Don't like it now.

Was that your silver Nova at the time Keith. A 16V 00? If so, it was more the thing at the time. :cool:

"P1NKY"actually started out with a "bigmouth" GSI bumper with moulded bottom lip and Seat Ibiza wrc style rear spoiler if memory serves me,bar the contoversial paint (the guy had a buisness to promote)it was sweetest in that guise.

nobody has taste or deserves to have taste if they once thought that abortion of a ****box was ever good lookin,its absolutely and utterly horrific. I don't even think that would be stolen in west belfast even if it had a brand new pair of nike air max on show inside.
