This site only keeps me coming back due to the handful of genuine knoledgable people with, real world results from real world testing and who dont give a funk about pubtalk and numbers.
Unfortunately the rest are a proper bunch of narrowminded pr1cks, who've read too much, seen too little and know even less!!

You may as well strap a great big turbo to a lawnmower, infact I think I will

Im willing to bet this little Vauxhall would give you a damm good run for your money... besides, he's only gotta do 71mph and sail on past

Oh, and do the speed limit while youre at it.

I haven't said anything about speed limits, so why you choose to bring that up I don't know? 71MPH
You're absolutely right though I have very little engineering knowledge, but even I know that Novas are ****ty little cars no matter what you do to them
Lighten up man, it only a laugh, there are far more important things in life to worry about
