130mph on Nova clocks is probably about 90mph, seriously they are shockingly inaccuate above 60mph.
I remember in my Nova SR taking it for a blast down the motorway, I was slowing going past cars in the fast lane and the speedo was reading 110mph

Steve, 1.6 8v Nova GSi top speed is 119mph my friend, with a cam and exhaust manifold the 8v responds very well.
