I hate the sunroof squeak, it makes the build quality seem worse than a Saxo. The heating is poor. My final drive in the gearbox is too high, making motorways a chore. I actually find it hard to park & the spacial awareness is poor for a car so small.Jun 09, 2009

the car performance wise was unreal running a 2.0l 16v turbo charged engine an only weighing a ton it would do the quarter mile in 13 seconds an was faster than most cars on the road as for the ride it wasnt great but it really didnt matter WICKED CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Dec 01, 2008

I've started to "rat" my nova and it's looking mean!! Rusted bonnet, satin black paint, lots of stickers.....
It's only a 1.2 so performance is pretty bad but with 12 points on my licence I can't upgrade the engine.....yet!
The car is easy to work on, parts are cheap and easily available and there are plenty of mods out there, so it's easy to make a nova different on a budget.
only downside to these cars as far as I can see... I've had two and blown the head on both, and I don't thrash 'em either.Nov 02, 2008

liked the performance of the car, the styling wasn't bad either.. if felt that the car had more character than you would find in more modern cars. But the car was that unreliable that it was dangerous! It outweighed all the problems by being the quickest i've ever owned and made me feel like a kid again.. which cant be bad!!Sep 09, 2008

nothing i lost it!!!
lol
acceleration was good and topped out at 109mph,
was abit rusty tho so build quality wasn't very goood if not weak, didnt cost much as it only £75 pounds of an old boss.
overall it was a good laugh, oh yeah still aint got a licence.Aug 21, 2008

A good hatchback for its class, with amazing handling, will take a lot of abuse, and with the back seats down could hold a fair ammount of stuff, though limited space when the seats were up.
Only let down by a slightly awkward driving position, and chavvy boy racer image.Apr 09, 2008
