Car Reviews - Boy Racer Cars - vauxhall nova gte 2.0 turbo
Review by DeXx
From Wales on 27th Sep 2002

Ratings
Performance 10/10
Practicality 8/10
Reliability 9/10
Value for money 10/10
Overall rating 9/10

Good Points:
VERY fast and handles well. Good fuel economy unless planting it Watch those supposed 'fast cars' disappear in rear view mirror. Most cars don't get a sniff.

Bad Points:
Getting the right parts when things go wrong. Had a case of this recently when had to get MOT work done. Nightmare! Bought the car off someone so didn't know full history.

General Comments:
The Vauxhall Nova ste turbo is one of the most fun per pound cars have ever owned. Citreon AX's are rattly biscuit tins, Peugeot 205's are fun but too tinny, fiesta's are just rubbish full stop, and you can't fit a big engine in a saxo! So for one of the best moddable cars around, buy a nova. Or if you want something newer, buy the corsa By the way, my mate has 320bhp pulsar and my 230bhp nova turbo can beat it


repeat

By the way, my mate has 320bhp pulsar and my 230bhp nova turbo can beat it

What's funny?

Vibrio's Punto can beat mainly every car too! Faster than every production car 30-70mph apparantly apart from Lambo and Maclaren!
