Noble M12 GTO

[carfanatic101]

Hi guys
I'm looking at the possibility of purchasing a Noble M12 gto and just wanted to know a bit about what it's like owning one.
What's it like to drive
What should I look out for
Is it a head turner
What's it like to live with etc.

Would be gretful if some one, preferably an owner, could give me some insite into the Noble experience.

Thanks

What should I look out for -

if you want to drive it hard/track days, your be wanting a gearbox and oil cooler.

It's quite easy to work on, so don't be put off if the owner has done a lot of the work himself, there are a few dealers that will tell you different, 5+ of the best cars I know the owners all work on them, but there are a few service centers if your not planing on getting your spanners out, don't worry about the number of owners or millage to much either.

For a starters I'd look out for the fuel pump upgrade and tunnel cooling mod, a luggage set would be plus for weekends away.
Any ProAlloy parts would be a plus as there big $$$


Is it a head turner -
Yes not many about


What's it like to live with etc. -

Surprising good and useable, The only other car I'd have is MP4-12C.

Would be gretful if some one, preferably an owner, could give me some insite into the Noble experience.

Thanks

If u are looking at a GTO (2.5) as apposed to a GTO3, 3R or M400 then these are the main things to check.

ECU changed to MBE or after market.
Radiator Fan shroud upgrade (std was two fans direct on rad)

What was mentioned above is a bonus and Exhaust.

I note that you have put the same question in the TVR forum regarding buying a Tvr, are you buying 2 cars?

I suspect he is investigating buying one or the other

nearly took the tvr route, Glad I bought the noble had it 4 years now and still not bored of it and that says something.
