Had the car booked in at Jetstream today for a service and general check up after buying the car 4 or 5 weeks ago.I know its been said before but what a great place to take your Noble .

Big thanks to Dave who serviced the car .obviously knows these cars inside out and a nice guy to boot. I now understand why people travel from around the country to have their car worked on by this company.

Ian I second your comments, it was my first visit to Bruntingthorpe and I dropped mine off for a service and a few jobs. Matt and Dave both gave plenty of their busy time showing me and a friend around the premesis and the airfield. Where else could you go and view one of each type of RAF aircraft you flew in your military career and get your car serviced, all surrounded by a race track. Heaven😀

I'm looking forward to collecting it in a few weeks.

It was the same for me , I did quite a lot of flying in my younger days, and I got to go round the proving ground whilst road testing the car .Fantastic I am sure you will enjoy the journey home.

I'm a 700 mile round trip from Glasgow down to Jetstream but wouldn't dream of taking it anywhere else!

My son Adam was there Saturday (& Sunday) filming the VMax event. Should've got him to pop over to Jetstream to say hi.
I'm there in 2 weeks for a service and gear linkage mod. - Wanna have slick changes for Rockingham!

Just picked mine up last Wednesday from Jetstream also, after a service, Mot, and bits and bobs ready for the summer.
Great job, fascinating looking around the workshop circa 14 Nobles in various stages of undress ! 300mile round trip for me also but as we've said before these guys really know their Nobles.
Their excellent reputation is justified.

Do Jetstream offer a collect/deliver service?

Hi Haydn

I was saying to Matt and Dave I saw a yellow M12 on the A5 just outside Cannock heading towards Telford last Wednesday must have been you heading home after your visit.

Is anyone from the South (I'm in West Sussex) likely to be going to Jetstream in two to three weeks time as I need to pick mine up? Willing to share costs etc

Yes mate , covered trailer thinks it's £1 per mile both ways but best if you check with Matt . They will also drop you at Rugby train station if that's any good ?
Have a drive over and have a look about !!! Some stunning planes .

Hi Ian
yes that was me, northbound M6 was congested, so took A5 for a change, didn't spot another Noble, or were you in something else ?

I'm planning to go up Friday 10th - the plan was to take the Noble and the daily hack in convoy, drop off the Noble, and returning in the daily.
We could go up in my Nob and return in yours if the date fits. I could alternatively do Saturday 11th. I live in Fleet Hampshire.

I'm then planning to collect on Saturday 18th. I've provisionally booked a trailer for the collection run.

Thanks for that, forgot to say welcome to the Nobility, this is a great forum with very helpful owners with an amazing depth of knowledge, enjoy the car.

Sounds like its time for Jetstream to arrange another Noble track day party

Who here remembers the last one with Martin/V6 GTO up the cherry-picker?
