And 14bhp from an ind kit??? The 20XE engines work terrible with ind kit. Good with those Piper X viper things, but terrible otherwise. U'd need a panel filter and exhaust to get that power.

You following ? (just try I know its hard)

So, take a nova, produced over decades, made millions, cost pennies, this means that everyone who can afford a penny chew could potentially buy a Nova, and have, so therefore by the masses dictating the market more people have the Nova and have modified it. Getit ? Silly question really. Stick to posing in future lol

TRUE BUT THIINK BOUT IT, every car is almost worthless at one point so is'nt it a waste of money buying £20,000 new cars that only owrht £4000 about 5- 6 years later?????

a nova gsi is faster than corsa gsi????my opinion is that they're about the same, 1.4sri corsa faster than 1.3 sr FACT, i would rather a gsi nova in mint condition unmolested and save the extra pennies that a corsa would cost to buy a manta gt/e,

but i would only ever have a gt/e or gsi nova nothing less,

i like my xr3i's they're equal to a nova gsi speed wise

Never seen a punto as clean, tidy, or well maintained as that!!
Then theres Brett (??) Turquiose green Nova on TB, An amazing car. Also, that SBD 225bhp 2.1 16v, Perspex windows, blue, painted alloys. Also, @ PVS, a yellow Nova, blakc 17"s, bit like the one above, twin chromed carbs etc.

Novas are a passion for a lot of people. Puntos are not liked like that. There are reasons

And as for what u say, well, Puntos aint exactly expensive, and theres far more highly modified corsas, built to the same kind of standard as above as there are novas.

No-one wants to do the punto's

And why should something written by such an idiot as yourself (i know im bored, lets try to start winding people up, yeah, nice guy muppet ) be so hard to understand by me. It like reading a comic book your replies

Go back to wonderland my sweet

Only high bhp punto i know of is Xedos one. But that kept blowing up?

PErsonnally, i'd prefer a really tidy nova compared to a really tidy (if there is such one been done yet) Punto.

But what i put is true. Vibrio may like Puntos more, furry muff, but im saying i haven't seen a punto to the high quality that i have a Nova. There are some immaculate examples, where-as i haven't seen any like that of a punto?

i'm with daimo on this one. although i own a corsa, i aint sayin a nova is a good car. But it does come down to personal preference.

Down this way, the only ppl drivin Punto's especially GTs and Sportings are 20 year old kids, mainly jewish, who are under their mums insurance and believe that having a stick on tail pipe, is high modified. They feel that they all have the quickest car around, and get very upset when a nova passes them

This is why i would not own punto, but thats just coz of the image it has around this way, and the fact i DONT like em in general.

I do not fit body kits cause they look rank. I like speed. my GT is faster than any standard nova, looks better than any Nova modified or not and is worth more, younger and more comfy. Nova's are shite. no matter what you do to the nova is will still be shite


James's car did not blow up and there are other high HP puntos around it's just you don;t know about them.

None, i've never seen any advertised like i have the vauxhall shows.

A nova is not sh1te, YOU just think they are sh1t. Everyone ahs an opinion, your just too arrogent and self loving to accept others opinions.

And im still waiting to see some shining examples of Puntos. I can get plenty of Nova ones that are show standard. Can you do the same of puntos and stop shouting your mouth off (As usual)
