    You've got to love the ep3 gearbox bearing noise and even new ones after 20,000 do the same

    mate try to avoid going full retard in the future. Neither the clio or nova weigh anywhere near 1200+ kg or have massive 17'' wheels. Your method of the civic has more bhp so its clearly faster couldn't be much more wrong. Power to weight ratio, unsprung weight etc etc, all these things will effect how a car performs. Consider this... XE nova lets say weighs around 700/800kg? and has 145ft pounds, ep3 weighs 1260ish and has 143 torques. The nova would feel like a big block v8 in comparison.

    Retard? You are the one saying it has 0 ft/lb so wouldn't move, now who's the retard?

    Can't even be arsed arguing with someone who hasn't even owned one but lets just say no XE Nova is 700kg. Also never said a standard EP3 was faster, my lightly modded one was though. Said EP3 is a better car and I still stand by that.

    arguing on the internet is like participating in the special olympics.. even if you win your still a retard.
    That said, EP3 is a better car all day long.

    Having weighted mine, i'd say most xe non stripped Novas are 900kg or there abouts.

    But this is an Internet argument Benn so no doubt we will be comparing a totally stripped, perspexed Nova to a full weight EP3 just to make it fair.

    I'm not arguing I was finding it amusing to be honest

    The fact you thought I meant the car has literally no torque just shows the caliber of person i'm talking to. Gonna have to pull the plug on this i'm afraid mate. It breaks my number 1 rule of posting on forums. Don't converse with clueless fanboys .
