    Default C20XE engine in Nova from Vaux as Ltd Edition??

    My mate (yes youre thinking 'here we go') reckons that there was 20 or so Novas that left the factory with the C20XE??

    He says it was a Limited Edition type thing?!

    Set him straight folks......

    I think hes a wee tad wrong....

    He works at Nissan hahaha

    You can safely tell him hes talking bullox.

    Lotus may have had a play with one or two, but this is also not backed up by any fact IIRC.

    They're in that big field by the plant in Zaragosa, alongside all the other hundreds of rust-free brand-new and never used Novas...

    Aye, simple answer is NO !!
    i'm sure some Vaux techies had a play and built one or two, but they would never have been fot general sale.
