I must admit I'm not really a "tuning" fan, but this one looks cool. great first car indeed. welcome to the wonderful (and rather expensive) world of car owners. ;D edit : I clicked on the vote button but I must say I'm not sure I get what it means so...

The car ain't exactly to my taste, I'm hoping to get something more along the lines of a 91 Camaro. Besides the fact that it's a little English/Australian No-name econo-line shitbox it's pretty cool for a first car. Love the smooth white look with the paint, rims, and EuroLights. Any engine upgrade? ------------------

mrsabidji gniyonna si gnidaer esrever Joined: Mar '03 Posts: 71	yup, it's a Vauxhall Corsa (just answering one of my own questions). @AJ32 : I also wish my first car could have been a camaro, no matter the year (pre 70 would've been great though) but I think it's better to learn driving on a little not-that-expensive car, you never know ;) .

Good to see you're buying it with all the mods already done - that way you don't fall into losing all that money on doing the mods yourself.. Nice looking car... does it sound like a fart or a bee? ------------------

Dup Cute and Fluffy :. Joined: Feb '03 Posts: 1,150	Thats a tidy Nova there. Vey tidy for a Nova. This example is a 1.3l. About 70hp with the air filter and clean engine i suspect. With a bit of tinkering these babies can fly. They can turn into shit boxes though. But i trust fordy to do me a tidy job. Needs 18's at least now. Save up for better rims and some arch extensions so you can fit the wheels. Warning, requires cutting, make sure you have adult supervision and if your a stupid retarded delinquant, make sure you use blunt sissors for saftey. hehe. I've lost it... ------------------ And on Christmas I like to watch old tapes of women getting gunged on Noel's House Party and wank myself off!

mrsabidji gniyonna si gnidaer esrever Joined: Mar '03 Posts: 71	sure, but I was thinking of the Opel 80/90 model. made some (minor) searches, and it seems that Opel kept the corsa name all the long and vauxhall just renamed its nova to corsa these last few years. edit : but at the end of the day, as it's a vauxhall, you were right and I was wrong. gonna hang myself to a tree now, if you'll pardon me.

Fordy Grrrrr Joined: Feb '03 Posts: 1,049	Good to see a nice mixed result there, Ok a bit more info majig..... Dup was right, its a 1.3 nova SR, there should be a 1.4 in there but the guy whos it was before me had the chance at a practically brand new 1.3. So he did! The eninge does have a new filter, and even thow the engine in practically new, it has a new haed gasket and radiator. Alfa - Yeh i thinkt he dude whos it was spent about Ł3 - 4000 on it, so i make it a deal if i pay Ł1300. J and JJHW - I know some people have a thing with badges etc, Oh look a nova, it must be a shed! Or hahaha hes got metro etc but the nova falls into the marmite categroy "you either love em or you hate em" I like it but some people hate it just because its a vauxhall! Alfa (again) - It sounds very loud, not like fatf cars, more like, err, well i dunno really, its got a nice growl, not purr! More general info, No sounds yet, or insurance to the poitn. I did have a very competitive quote from cis for me as named drive on my dads policy at just under Ł600 but they have to send an agent round to see the car, so that went out the window didnt it.... All the others, with the same info give around Ł2000, wich is annoying. I might buy a standard nova SR swap the plates, get the Ł600 insurance, sell the other one! That is probably major fraud thow.... ------------------
