Well after what seems like an age, I finally got a car on Thursday. Its a 3R with TDS and 6sp with excellent service history.

Thanks to everyone who has posted advice etc.. and I hope to meet up at some point with some other local owners.

I have been out enjoying the car this weekend in the good weather and taking it very steady (all my performance cars before have been 4wd)

Hello Ant from another new Nobile owner, car looks great I too came from a high performance 4x4 Evo 5RS and I have to say the more I become used to the performance of the Noble the more amazed I've been. I'm finding it easily as quick on my favourite B roads! Although this particular car has had a small fortune spent on performance and handling mods. You are definately going to enjoy it! Cheers, Rob

Hi Rob, mine is fairly stock but quick enough for me for the time being. I am really enjoying it and love just pootling about in it LOL. The acceleration is significantly more potent than my GT4 and S4.

Welcome Ant , Best colour ! Although im biased....
Im in West Mids (Solihull) - Midlands meet would be good.

Ha ha thanks guys. TBH it wasn't my first choice of colour but the fact its titanium rather than silver swung it for me, its that bit warmer. Now I've got it, I really like the colour in the sun it looks fantastic.
