Around 3 years ago I use to own a 1992 nova with a 20 XE, it was lowered 30mm on full koni kit and from what I remember it handled very well,
I was looking to buy another nova (as a weekend car) and actually went to get it, however when I took it for a test drive I was really disappointed by the handling, so much so it actually put me off buying the car,
I actually drive a 1.7 Puma day to day and although it?s not a touch on an XE nova on the straights, it must be said it handles fantastic
So what I want to know is can an XE nova still cut it with the more modern cars out there handling wise??
(im not after a slagging match, just curious as it is the only thing putting me off)
