I love my little gsi, yes, it is 10 years old, but it dosen't rattle even though it's decked, but it did rust badly, but it's getting sorted now (no, not by filler, genuine GM pannels)to concours standard. I'm not saying it's mega fast, but i'm very happy with it, i blew a vts of the other day up to 110 and he gave up! hsi face when he caught up
is that nova sport picture next to the tent matthew searle, pccuk, old car? A friend of myn now owns that, he's had to have it totally restored, it was a right mess when he got it.
 don't buy a nova
sad b*stard
Sad Ba*tard am i? Im not the cu.nt who owns a nova,
I couldnt give 2 flying fcuks if people agree with u about novas being good are fast
There have never being good
and never fast
And you beat a vts im sure u did!! did it have the handbreak on
Now Pi55 off with ur novas
There went out with the square wheels there have never being in unless u want a car what u can trash and fill it back up together !!

Thats a bit of a childish response mate, whilst the GSi is very restrictive performance wise, they can be designed to unleash some power with a punch... certainly in a different league to the Nova

lmao maybe you should read up at the "mature" comments posted some of the small minded corsa owners, corsa gsi is hardly in a different league, a nova gsi is faster than one and if you want to start comparing modified ones we all know novas are quicker.

You wouldn't say Nova's arent fast when my b.friend had a 160bhp one.
I take it your corsa gsi is an L reg, so is my nova, so there's no age difference there, and you'rs only has 8 valves more, so not much difference there either.
No filler in my nova, complete new pannels.
You've got such a problem haven't you, i own a nova gsi, and a corsa gsi, can i be in your gang? LMAO

My 106 gti was wasted by a shitty old E reg thing on 3 spokes, had a 2.0 16v in it made me look a dick and how I laughed Not many Novas are 'fast' though, lucky b's corsa was 'fast' but not many other corsas are. Personally I think a 'fast' car is one that'll do 14sec or under 1/4s, 0-60 in under 5.5/6 secs and so on so forth.
