Ok firstly hi to everyone im ste from manchester, im lookin at buyin a 190e on saturday its a 2ltr peccy manual, Im 21 and owned a very nice mk3 astra which i put a nova GTE engine into and tuned it up so i could smoke nova GTE's very fast car for my age at the time, then 2 month before this christmas i went and bought a nissan Pulsar gtir import very very fast, i imbarressed an evo 8 owner on the motorway and blew in a loads of sports cars i.e. scoobys porsche ect, it was a very nice car to drive, It had 300bhp and was as light as a corsa so you can imagine what kinda car it was. Bad thing was the back end came out to easy i couldnt have my foot down on a corner because of the power, the 4wd only worked on straight lines. heres some pics of it when i went to a banzai cruise some guy had taken theses pics and put them up on the banzai website which i came across mines the black one too. Anyways i would have still had the car but it ended up on its roof after the back end came out and clipped the curb sendin me over and on its roof. I will post pics up later on tonight as i have no time now im off out anyways BIG HI. |

Welcome to club mate Well done on getting rid of the astra  and you'll find the 190 handles better than you think but not quite as fast as the Pulsar

Welcome! Good luck on the hunt for a nice 190! Neil is right, either a 16v or one with a fat straight six of some kind in it...
