My mates been saying he got 120 mph out of a standard 1.2 Nova.
What is balllocks.
Last night on the way back from Chelmsford he was driving like a nutter.
He said he got another 120 mph out of it.
I kept telling him his speedo is out, but he would not have any of it lol.
So I gave him a race back in my 1.2 corsa.
I lost him on the stright I was going just over 100 mph down the hill.
When I got to the roundabout, I slowed down.
Then I see this Nova fly by me and go stright into the roundabout, making dirt and grass flying into the air.  
He ended up in the middle of the roundabout. He was ok and the nova still drove!. (Nova's are built to last lol)
At least he know he can't go 120 mph now lol.

After we got his car off the roundabout.
He want to carry on racing! 
I could not believe the nova could still drive.
He hit the roundabout at some speed.

I see your ponit mate, but given the drivers attitude, and the description of the car....I would assume its in a fairly bad way and probably not safe/road worthy

At least his chasis wont bend when he kurbs it unlike a corsa, well maybe not in this case Got to love heros like that, reminds me of a guy that offered me out in a V6 vectra. He honestly thought he could smoke me off, and claimed to have top speed of 190mph +, tried explaining basics physics to him to which he just kept saying I was going to get smoked. Tool.
