As the title says,
I personally think they are nasty, so was wondering why people like them, what is it that people like etc etc

I do for some reason. The look on peoples faces when you beat them an a sheddy tin can sleeper is so satifying

I like nova's with 150bhp+
I think they're ace, very light, perfect sleeper, enough room in the engine bay for a c20let, and there's not many around anymore.

I like them as I had plenty of them when I was younger.
I had a 1400sri last year and although it was good fun I felt like a tit driving it
I'd happilly build a minter if I had plenty of spare cash but as I don't I doubt i will ever own another

I have had a nova and a corsa, corsa was the better car and I do secretly much prefer nova's but I couldn't drive one round now.

And i think the reason alot of people dont have one, jacko, is because it's difficult to find a clean one nowadays and alot of time and money goes into making them as clean as the one i posted. Most people don't have that and so stick to a corsa which are more common, cheaper and still look ok.
