• Once a familiar sight on British roads, the Nova introduced a generation to motoring, with the modest Merit offering straightforward, affordable transport. Today, examples such as this evoke fond memories of first cars and driving lessons
• Understood to have remained at its previous home from 1988 until 2023, including many years standing, this example displays a remarkable level of preservation
• Still bearing its supplying dealer’s window sticker and number plates, it retains those small but evocative details so often lost over the years
• Acquired by our vendor with the intention of using its solid bodyshell for a sportier project, its condition prompted a change of heart. Quite simply, he couldn’t bring himself to take it apart
• Coming to sale fully serviced and with a fresh MOT, this delightful Nova would be a welcome addition to the Festival of the Unexceptional and similar gatherings
