why is it?

[burgo]

that 1.3sr novas are more desirable and therefore expensive than 1.4 sr?

[novasrikev]

dont no its just mad if you ask me but they are cheaper on insurance alot cheaper

[Edd]

1300 is a better engine IMO

It's the original sporty nova

Alot of 1.4sr's are mk2 therefore turd :d

[MK999]

Because everyone knows what a 1.3SR is and don't look for 1.4's? lol

lol lol lol

[bazil]

i totaly missed out the 1.4 sr and sri in anyshape, i had both shapes of 1.3 sr and the gte and gsi but never really wanted the 1.4, some say it had less power too?

[novasrikev]

the 13 is nippy for what it is though

[General Baxter]

the 1.4 sr had 2bhp more then the 1,3 and is was about 3 insurance groups higher in the old tables

I said alot not all lol

[bazil]

lol edd what i meant was it looks odd on a mk1, 1.3SR is much more normal to see

[Jack]

^ only because its more common.

I think I'd rather have a Mk1 1.4SR than a 1.3. The Mk2 1.4SR was overshadowed by the SRi as well.

[Andy]

I think the 1.3Sr's are quicker than the 1.4's
Well the ones ive driven have been anyway

I was just about to say the MK2 SR rarely gets a mention and doesn't seem as valuable as the MK1 SR.

What's the power difference between the MK2 SR and SRi?

[Andy]

Im not sure but an sri would destroy an sr

[Jack]

1.3 70bhp
1.4 72bhp
1.4i 82bhp

...ignoring the 1.4 SPi which is a crappy-but-efficient 60bhp lol

[flyin flea]

My first car (whay back in 1994) was a 1.4SR. A very early Mk2 G reg 1.4SR.
G339MWT if anyone on ere owned it..... IIRC I flogged it to a yoof in Doncaster!

Died in 2001 according to DVLA.

I bought it from a Nova trader on the A58 on the outskirts of Leeds. (was an angry man on too many roids!)

Chaw a 1400 next time you're out. You may be surprised mate.

Owt's quick with the law on your tail! lol

[bmw156]

the grasstrack/autocross/any other low class motorsport lol
use the manifolds all the time as i think its the biggest carb they can use in their class.

they are mk1. usually with some nice rare trim on them

same engine as a sport?

they just have "that thing" about them.

[Edd]

Fooking hate grassers lol there's hardly any nova's left without them coonts ruining more lol

Yeah same engine as a Sport

[brainsnova]

1.3sr was the original and the best
