Can't remember, obviously when you get to my age you start forgetting stuff?
Was thinking I like Rami's car but never seen it!
I'm pretty sure you were but I may have the years muddled..... People were all talking about the obscene speeds Brett had supposedly achieved on the m62! Ramis car looked tidy in pics but wasn't the best up close iirc! I remember quite well as it was one of my first shows that I had a car on a stand.... Was a very nice white gsi rep with an c20xe running rather low on avo coilovers/soft stars.Quote:

I stand corrected Nick, it was Andy bishop.
My favourite nova from back in the day, I know it had another mag feature after this one when it was a c20xe. I would like to know what happened to it? or any other pics of it?

could have????? could have????? FFS, against that sh!tter with a massive rover V8, it was always going to win.. the [cough] spin [cough] was such a setup, i've had a 1.2 merit on 145's thru much worse bends way quicker than that one
Watch the vid, you can see in a few places it's way in front. Then the editing is done and it's behind...lol
one xmas, someone also gave me a clarkson vid where he got himself, tim harvey & richard burns to test loads of cars round mallory park on a sunny day... the proper drivers were raving about the peugeot 106 gti... he would have nothing of it & chose some great big jap thing with several turbos...i waited till nobody was looking & threw it away
