 If I was going to pay £25k for a car, I'd want one withougt a hacksawed front bumper with a fan stuffed in, and with seats which weren't from a Fiesta.

yeah but only six made so can appreciate the price.
whereas the nova's price is just... well.... daft tbh.
but with 440bhp and a light car could imagine the fun you'd have if you was rich enough to shell out money on it.

and how do you suppose they get the fuel into the inlet? and control revs?
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

OWNED
So therefore it has no throttle flaps in the throttle bodies therefore its is not on throttle bodies and is on one large single throttle body. Its from a cosworth and you can see it clearly in the pictures if you bothered to look.
