whats the best car you have beaten in you dub???

[sellers]

can only find this dodgy pc of the engine all apart

thats bags gonna melt, 

erm, well?? seeing as mines a driver, slightly tunned, only think iv ever been proud of beating is a ford cougar v6, dint really leave him, just marginally got ahead, still they do 8.4 - 60 and he must have been a crap driver

i once had a porsche 911 try to overtake me up a hill on a short stretch of dual carriageway...i was pulling away at the top...

might be worth mentioning they obviously didnt change down a gear and i went from 5th to 3rd...   :embarassed:

I've done a mk2 16v officially on the Santa Pod 1/4 mile in my cabby at GTI festival last year as a few on here can vouch for. 



















I know it should have spanked me, but it didn't and I've got a RWYB slip to prove.

Well, on Chrimbo day i kept up with a Bentley Continental GT along the Epping New Road, overtook 5 cars in the process and got upto an indicated 115mph

That was so fun!

[wag,en,volks]

550 marranello out of the gooseneck at cadwell park in my old mk1
(but if my car was worth that much i wouldnt throw it around much either )

[Sugar79]

come on thats no where near as "good" as my old nova  my, that car got some abuse! just look at the state of it lol, but they were quick off the mark iam afraid




oh and my car beat a boyed up 16v corsa the other day up a steap hill,which is nation speed limit, should of seen his face as my car flew past him.. 

[steviem]

Novas were quick, just worse build quality than 205s imo.
I had a Nova 1.2 when I passed and although it was fun to drive, it was awful!

[Sugar79]

i agree steviem, they are fun to drive as you can sling them round corners, handbrake them, my 1.3SR used to bet RST's of the line at traffic lights hahahaa they soon over took but 1st and 2nd gear were quick, just they are poorly made, had brake problems and had a habit of blowing valves oh and the interior is awful

[>>Mart<<]

hmmm novas i am sorry to say i also had a d reg 1.3 sr (the one that had the propper recaro interior) then later on had a 1.4sr on a f reg great little cars when you are young pretty cheap to insure and run
i always remember doing a perfect handbrake turn into a parking spot in the f reg one
i have still never managed to do the same in any other car 

oh yea and in the d reg with 4 people in it i was coming back from leeds and there is a big hill that drops down on the m62 and the little thing managed to go off the clock 

[Sugar79]

^^^^ they were very good at handbraking for some reason
