It's not a Noble I know but very close and designed by Lee, looks fantastic, am I missing something? is this one a bit of a dog?? is it too left of centre for most??? Gear lever looks like its come from on old transit van!!!
But look how rare, seemingly cheap and its a V8!!!!!
I once spoke to a test driver for Ascari and she loved them...............

It says it's a turbo V8. How much power is it running?

Really, its just me then!!! I'm sure its not to everyone's taste and yes the proportions are a little out, but I've seen worse. Its rarity of the thing that I can't figure, surely that would hold the price up???

Given what we know about the positioning of spoilers on the M12 series, can that spoiler generate anything but drag?

Been for sale for absolutely yonks,I posted about it ages ago. As said above, it's rare because no-one wanted them then, and it's not sold because no-one wants it now, I doubt even at 40K let alone 60.

I'm totally struck by just how similar to the M12 it looks, like you could see where Lee was going with the design but just not quite there. But yeah 60K...phew...you'd have to love your Noble history to buy something as ugly as that!

Is there no love for this car?? I think the price is a too high, but it is an Ascari, with pedigree, this is not a kit car masquerading as a Lambo. The car is from a era when those lights were popular, look at the F1, same horrid lights. I would love to see this car in the flesh, maybe this would change my mind as others must have seen this car and thought its just not worth it!!
