Q753 VOJ ✗ Untaxed Expired: 01 December 2007 ✗ No MOT Expired: 06 February 2008 Vehicle make :VAUXHALL Date of first registration :04 February 1997 Year of manufacture :1997 Cylinder capacity (cc) :1600cc CO₂Emissions : Not available Fuel type :PETROL Export marker : No Vehicle status : Not taxed Vehicle colour :PURPLE 97 far too late for a Nova. I think it matches Oct 90 facelift as GSi (previously GTE) for grille, wheels, white sidelights, stripey seats and as the only 1.6 version, but may be a later colour??
