It would be a Type-R that shape/year I'd go for as well but not for a couple of years yet lol

I don't think it'll be a patch on the old K151 RHS...What do you think Adam ? lol

You old nova was probably quicker werent it? lol

To be honest it probably waslol

i wanted something abit more comfortable though but something i could still take out and have a blast down some local country lanes.

i havent really driven it in anger.....yet;) so i carnt really compare it to the nova but i "think" the nova would have the edge over it.

yeah its not a bad car actually but i think id still prefer the nova, but if its for comfort reasons, wise choice

Thanks for the comments.it will be the first non-vauxhall i have owned and the first car newer than 15 years old i have ownedlol (I've owned all the sporty vauxhalls that i lusted after while i was in school.so time to move onlol )

Raymond- Yeah i thought if i bought the 106 rallye i wouldnt really be gaining much comfortwise over the nova.....but after seeing the new pictures of your GF's rallye i have to say they are really really nice and i will more than likely own one one daylol

My bezzie mate has one exactly the same. And after all the hype i wasnt overly bowled over by it. But they command alot of respect and the simpletons in the street know what one is as compared to a 2.0l nova lol

fail!! i hate type r's with a vengence!! A lad i know was bragging about his 180bhp Type r and that it would beat my old belmont - i took him down the hagley mile (long dual carriageway by mine) i showed him who was quicker ;).
Each to their own though mate although i would rather spend my money on a new VXR or ST :D

Nice cars for girls, nearly bought my mrs one a couple of times but never got round to it, load of cars and cheap now, seen a few around the £3.5k mark with fairly sensible miles.
