* Brakes -> They have the utterly woeful 2-pot callipers on the front

i take it you've never drove a standard 1.2 nova then makes the brakes on my scooby feel like porsche 911 brakes!

Nope never driven a Nova, to be fair I have driven things that have worse brakes than a standard classic but they are definitely a weak point on the car, do the job for normal pottering about but for the sort of sustained fast road driving that the rest of the car excels at they aren't up to it IMHO

i might do something with the brakes, there are many other things on the to do list first though.
and tcarter the insurance is so high because im 22, most companies wouldnt insure me, i was with kwikfit before and they wanted over 5 grand most other companies wanted over 2 grand but i ended up going with diamond. also the oil leak is sorted (read above )
