All stickers have been removed for now until sponsor decides what they want on it. Oh and no "ITS A NOVA" comments please.

Its a 1400 8v running 120ish BHP

The new engine thats currently being built will push out 142 BHP.

Plus the fact that the car has been fully stripped out and everything that can be replaced with fibreglass and carbon fibre has been. The power to weight ration is SOOOOOOOOO good!

Steve - Would love to tell you, but em...no!

Derek - Got me! Its originally a SRi engine

Andy - Thats the plumbed in fire extinguisher - pull one of two levers and it goes off underneath the bonnet (Mandatory in rallying) The hand held one is infront of the codrivers seat.

Adam - Totally min! Only got the roll cage so I could hang disco balls from it!!!

You could be right, I was sure 1400 8v's were 82 as 1400 16v's are 90

oooooooooooook

The famous "Nova Sport" with its twin 40 Webers producing 89 Bhp joined the line-up for a short time in 1985.

and

The new SRi model introduced at the same time received a multi-point 1400cc engine and boasted 82 Bhp. The Nova GSi received a new Multec injection system and catalytic converter but was still rated at 100 Bhp.
