    Perhaps look at selling up and buying a gsi?
    I would but imo all gsi's for sale are either crap or serious $$$$
    And i would rather spend the money buying like a nice e36 318 for the money you would pay for a half decent gsi (imo)

    Rather drive my nova as a 1.2 tbh
    There is nowt wrong with my 1.2 and i can live with it.
    Its just after 2 years, just fancy my nova having a little poke to it
    Not bothered if i cant get cheap enough insurance

    Same. Then got out of the 55bhp Nova and got into the 60bp-per-wheel Celica Mind you, it did mean I could insure it for a sensible price.
