Oddly enough, I did overtake it on a corner. If he'd looked across he'd have seen me like this http://www.alastrianlampoon.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/emot-byodood.gif

Wow, adams gti is faster.

Is a standard 1.3 nova as fast as a standard glanza?

Or, is a 400bhp glanza, faster then a v6 nova?

Doesnt mean a thing really:s

lol 60 road, and I may have been going a little faster :p Although I was too busy clinging to the steering wheel for dear life to notice the exact speed. Officer.

Adam
09-05-10, 10:11 PM
As you hit 3rd youve already already hit the end of the 3mile stretch of road.

As you're in 2nd you've usually come to the next set of lights/roundabout/breakdown

Glanzas are only 133bhp standard,
nothing for a match with a mighty 3.0 v6 :d
As you know Jack there are some very glanzas going about
and yea it doesnt doubt me you ovetook it around a corner
imo they handle like dog, used to keep up with my bro (200bhp glanza)
In my nova (1.2 - 12bhp approx lol)

Hayley

I reckon my beast of a car has taken a fair few unsuspecting performance vehicles..



.... NOT!!

but i reckon it does alright for itself seeing as its a 1.5 turdbo and Jack mocks the fact that its got the smallest turbo he has ever seen.

And its a mitsi.. so obviously its cool and the gang! lol

Jack
09-05-10, 10:36 PM
I also hammered a Mitsubishi Colt CZT the other day. I hear they're a 1.5 turbo, although rumour has it they are equipped with the smallest turbo I've ever seen.

Rexy
09-05-10, 10:37 PM

I'll rephrase that cas i actually wanted one, but they are pretty tame and soft. :P

If he sits in your car, you need to declare him on the insurance.
