Yeah i think my nova's about 700kgs... gonna take it down the local weigh bridge.
Ive been out on a couple of nova turbos both running about 300bhp and they were both by far the fastest things ive been in once they stop wheel spinning.

I'd rather have a LET Nova than LET Corsa for all out power and crazyness, but I do lurve my lil' baby
We raced a Ferrari 328 or something until he got pissed off with me sitting on him, then I pulled in.
Best race ever was with Daimo on his bike and a Tommy Kaira Skyline, I think we got up to around 160, Fad shit himself.
Also, they do handle, especially with a LSD in them, again, (same journey!!) fad shit himself. Incidentally, so did I, I didnt think it could corner like it did

engine costs more, let really needs an F28 which is alot more then your F16&F20 that you mate with the 20xe. LET obviously needs other special treatment for cooling and such.

Custom made one. Go to Pace. As Jambo said, its more expensive, but you can design it to any size/shape you want.
Donnas is huge and cost £300 odd, but was built and at our door in under 2 weeks. VERY good service as well.

Bet thats gonna be heaps of fun matey! Always wanted to go whole hog

The progression of the infamous blue brick beer bus continues...

i had an let corsa, they're great fun,
the only reason that i couldnt get past subarus is cos i kept trying to pass them coming off round abouts and stuff, and they had the grip, i didnt,
its good fun on a dry road though cos subaru owners get a fright
