Gents,

I bought a Griffith 500 a few years ago and debated at the time if I should have extended my budget to buy a Noble.

Move forward to now, and again I still really like the look of a Noble. I would be most grateful if an owner could show me their car and take me for a spin. I can at last decide if it's what I really want!

In return I can offer lots of tea, a friendly chat, and a ride in my tuned 7 litre TVR.

Mark.

yikes Typo? Or have you bunged an LS engine into it?

I had a Chimaera 500, so have experienced of both, but I live in Hampshire so probably a little too far for you.

Hi Mark,

There are a couple of owners here in Devon, although one has just been sold I think.

I am in North Devon (nr Torrington) but often take the Noble up to Watchet Marina when staying on the boat.

Your welcome to meet there if its more convenient and have a look over the car etc.

Might pass on the ride in the TVR though - Sounds even more crazy than the Noble - scare me half to death!

Cheers Chris.

Hi Mark

What you need to do is get hold of Paul (wessexrfc) as he's in Devon and is looking to sell his modified Noble 3R - no advert produced yet, so would be a good opportunity to try and possibly buy !

Mine is waiting for new shocks at the mo, gently dripping on the floor

Hi Mark, as Giles said, I'm in Mid Devon and thinking about selling my 500plusbhp 3R. It has all the upgraded bits, you are more then welcome to pop along and have a look. it's currently waiting for its owner to replace the main fuse, then find out why the battery conditioner has caused this to blow!!!!
Seems there are currently five Nobles in Devon, 1 in Barnstable (but you won't see it on the road), 1 in Torrington (new one to me), 1 in Bow, mine and Giles in South Devon.
Let me know if you are interested.
Cheers,
Paul
