View Full Version : my new ride
Really not sure whether to bother with the nova now lol
Full vauxhall service history, coilovers, wheels painted dark grey. half leather, precat decat, straight through miltek system. Drives lovely even though its on the floor, neeeds raising a bit at the front.

Lovely cars. They are the only vauxhall i like from recent times. Love the look of them and that looks a fine example.

i really quite like them. but would still carry on with the nova
I think they look really nice but was totally disappointed when I test drove one. Felt really sluggish for 200bhp.
I know what you mean, not the fastest thing as standard. Few plans should see it at an easy 280brake though :)
That's why I didn't buy it as I knew I'd end up going for more power and make it unreliable. Such a nice looking car though.
You will soon take a dislike to it trust me.
Got mine on 60k fsh, nothing but trouble with it, afm, turbo's, boost solinoids, are all very weak on the z20let.
Only a matter of time before something breaks lol
Wouldn't get rid of the Nova just yet, just like me you'll go back to it lol
i work for vauxhall, parts warrenty ftw lol
Not matter how much cash you spend it will NEVER like going round corners.
Plus standard there crap, then when you want more power, like I did and you do, lol fuel economy goes out the window.
In the end mine was 250bhp, flat out 12/15 mpg, 30mpg on a long run not going over 60mph lol

Huh?
Mine handles sweet :confused:
Nice buy Rich, awesome motors!!
Id have one tomorrow but cant justify spending 3-4K more than i spent on mine, just for the sake of a few body bits, and the engine.
I would get another, I was just a bit dissatisfied with some aspects of the car, I guess it's just like most modern cars, a little dull and boring.
If I got another mk 4 think it would be a 2.2 tho, fuel costs in them z let's when you up the boost are crazy lol
