Not with a 4 speed gearbox you wouldn't lol
Ive been keeping it below 60 everywhere to be honest, hardly uses any petrol at all.
Was dying to get some engine bay shots (even though its only a 1.2) but the catch was being a bastard as they always are in vauxhalls. Needed two people to open it, but I was by myself.
How much you floks think this is worth? 49k mot'd and taxed. Not looking to sell, only bought it a few months ago, just wondered.
Cheers for replys

Its very very bouncy at the minute, one of the worst cars ive been in lol so Im looking for some shortened shocks and probably some springs at the minute, not sure about going much lower though due to practicality lol

If I had a two door I'd probably have stripped it out
Used a Panasonic DMC-FZ18. I don't really know about photography, as you can probably tell, I just turn it to the 'intelligent auto' mode or whatever you call it lol

Ah, yea I noticed, it had a big for sale sign in the window was going to say in case you wanted to buy it back
Was in the Moneen garage at Andy town. First time I've seen it about here.

That car is always about diferent places Jamie lad, although there are a few very similar ones, but if it had the for sale thing in the window im sure it was mine.
I did make him an offer before buying the Nova, but he was looking too much.
And Mobby yeah need to get something like that, have neglected that side of things.
