    Love Courtney Nova's 👌 a mate of mine had a 1.6 GTE turbo by turbosystems back in the day until it got nicked and wrote off into a lamp post 20 seconds later 😭.Raced a 2.0 16v Nova in a 210bhp S2 rs turbo and it was surprisingly quick .Nice 1 for the Vauxhall nostalgia Adam 👍.

    @exgtt2061 Рік тому +1

    Gorgeous, with a standard front end it will be perfect 👍 with the FWD transmission losses, flyweight shell, turbo torque, it will take a heck of a car to chase it down 50-140.
