"Selling as planned?" - fiscally: Now that's hard to say from the outside. Whilst nearly all other businesses exist to create profit Noble appears to be different in that the owner, said to be uber wealthy, does what he wants, when he wants (and he can). Noble make cars to order and doesn't seem to need to ramp-up production - kind or reminds me of Vincenzo Lancia or Trevor Wilkinson in their respective sheds toiling away making something they "like".

"Selling as planned?" - brand-wise: Well, no one has a bad thing to say about how an M600 delivers and it's made the company world famous. Most of us here "only" own/drive Lee Noble era machines and these are from a UK-centric era. Dyson has definately put a global stamp on the Noble brand (but ask him if he can make a cup of tea and he'll probably fail miserably - "in" joke, sorry).

Noble, whether Lee Noble or Dyson era, has always applied a different approach to its dealerships. I suspect that as they only list Mayfair, Shanghai and Taiwan because that's where they think the money is. Orenda Supercars? No idea - looks like a sales front to me - have they got an actual building I wonder?

AFAIK, the M600 comes in left or right drive to order.

The M600 is available in both left hand drive and right hand drive , it is sold throuout Europe and the Middle east and is heading into China .
It will be on display at Autosport this year if you fancy a look , Peter and Kim from the factory are very approachable and genuinely enthusiastic about the car .

I think it will be a brave man who tests the secondhand value, Does anyone think it will hold its value?
Im wondering, if each car is bespoke for each customer, how easy would it sell to another?
I think time will tell, and around 2 years before we see any up for sale secondhand. Imo of course.
I would snap one up if it were under 200k.
