Do I throw some money at the Noble or upgrade my daily? I use a Golf r32 for my daily drive not the fastest thing in the world but I do like the car a lot ,it's got buckets etc. and its a great all weather cruiser.

I have a certain amount of money in my car slush fund [would have more but the daughters getting married] so do I chuck it at the Noble, shopping list is manifolds ,exhaust , wheels [already bought Rotas]and maybe suspension.

Or trade in the R32 and buy a newer car ,thinking of an Audi S4 or something similar .My thought process is chucking it at the Noble is more cost effective [depreciation etc].

I'd keep the R32, lovely car imp

You going to need to spend the money to a certain degree on the bible anyhow so your man maths will end up counting it twice :-)

Whatever we say it's your call scratchchin Whilst I respect the people here nothing they might post would ultimately influence my car choice as I know what I like - regardless of comment and common sense! In order to provide meaningful comment we'd need to know you well and anyway, Boys and Toys don't follow a logical thought process. You're on your own I'm afraid...

...and BTW, putting any spare cash into the Noble is your best bet biglaugh

If hindsight has taught me anything it's that a slush fund is exactly that!
I'd go with the third option - don't spend it on either thumbup

Buy a shotgun ?

Failing that, I would do both......

Go to REVO and have their upgraded chip/ECU map added to the R32 (370hp for under £1000 i think)
Then spend the rest on the Noble

You'll feel the benefit when you drive both cars
