Don't really understand sleepers, I'd rather get a car that looks nice and is fast rather than a shit car that's fast

The real question is, who would be embarrassed more, you driving that or the person you beat?

you would look good for those few seconds you beat the other car on the dual carriageway or from the lights, then driving round town, stuck in traffic and on your drive you would look like a clown

I wouldn't say no to a Daewoo Nexia with an XE and full Mk2 Gte kit etc.

It would break the car! My mate had a Matiz and I took it for a drive, fucking awful car! Handled like shite, slow as fuck, even for a 1.0L, my Corsa felt much quicker tbh.

Nexus and lanos share the same chassis as the mk3 gte hence the XE.
Would like it for a month or two, not a daily like

I'd love a C20LET Lanos, I think they're a much better looking car than the mk2 astra

I love some sleepers.

I reaaally want to build one

Never really understood it tbh. Comedy factor would wear off after about a day.

I dont think it would really, my 106 was just shy of 145bhp, and weighing a bag of sugar, it was pretty nippy, put a smile on my face all the time, sat side by side with Clio 1*2's, 197's, few CTR's etc. People always asked what was in it, and were dissapointed when i said 1.6
