Please give me your opinions. All this Nova bashing has got me wondering if anyone can actually give a good comment on something that isn't actually the last word in performance motoring.

It is Scooby related. I want to know if anyone with a Subaru can honestly tell me that I'm stupid for owning such an inferior model of car. Its just a dig at the Nova-bashers but thanks for the compliments all the same chaps

Dave - its changing again and corsasport.co.uk is getting the exclusive

If you squint, the lights/grill look like an 01.

Think it looks tastefully done personally.

I can honestly tell YOU that YOU'RE stupid for owning such an inferior model of car...

Ok, the honesty part is bull and you know it.

I usually don't like modified cars (My new MY01 won't have any cosmetic changes) but I must admit that your "inferior model of car" would turn my head on the street. It looks nice in this context, but depending on my mood at the time I see it live, my reaction could be:

"Damn, there goes another loudmusiclistenergofastonstraightlinehasnoexperien cedrivingbutwantstolookgooddude..."

Sorry, can't change a men's Ideas... But it does look good. I just don't like the image those cars (and owners) have, and that you can do nothing about.

Its a 1.6i 16v, 106bhp in the book. Handling is alright but still to vague, my next job is better dampers and new roll bars and bushes. A friend in Australia has done the job and it got a good write up in Hot Fours magazine.
