Saw the M15 at the show today but no Noble staff to talk to.First time for me in the flesh and thought it looked very slabby and flat,also quite unfinished.Interior does not look 75k either.

However the 3r next to it still looks like one of the best cars on the planet.So much more interesting and the interior to my mind is way better on the "R"

Noble please get back to what you do best and carry on developing the "R"

I'm going tomorrow evening. Looking forward to seeing it for myself.

p.s. why do you assume the M12 is not going to be further developed? One at a time etc...

That is because it is. The car isn't due until early next year for the first owners, and if you had read my report you'd have found out there are still many styling things to resolve.

As for the interior, seems to divide opinion.

LOL! Given some of the moulds got reused AFAICS when I was at the factory, that might be hard!

Staff were there yeaterday as me and a mate were chatting to them for ages, first time i've seen the car in the flesh and i thought it was awesome. Though the dials are better on the M12 the screen is a nice touch on the 15

Bloody harder to get in and out of though, the sill's mahoosive

I was there yesterday and couldn't spot any staff. Its just in the generic 'supercar paddock'. It does look better in the flesh, although still not 100% my cup of tea.

mrdemon, the M14 is stillborn - the next model for launch (as displayed at the show right now) is the M15.

He must be very early on the list - I ordered early and don't expect it for some time after that

That would be Adam probably and Giles from Noble London (or could have been Mike from Mole Valley).

Unfortunatly your mates dad is slightly mistaken, I have the first place of the deposit holders, and I don't have any children....

He must be mistaken then, from what he was told at the unveiling he was 3rd and the other two pulled out and he went in at no1 maybe not then, he ordered it 2 years ago though

I think you'll find the car your reffering to as the M14 is now the M15! the M14 is not going into production as the M15 is the revised model of the same car.

Yep, M14 is stillborn - although you can get a Far East manufactured diecast model off of eBay!
