Thanks for taking me for a spin in the Noble, wow what a car, I was extremely impressed by the way it handles and that sound is great. Considering you were going easy on it was extremely quick. A perfect end to my birthday

If you ever want a spin in a Griff or an old mini let me know

Pleasure - as I've often said - people only have to ask (and you did ).

Shame that I had to keep it under 4000rpm and no full throttle whilst I get everything bedded back in. It sounds even better (and goes a *lot* faster) between 4000 and 6750!

Once the current set of upgrades are all systems go I'll give you a repeat performance if you like

Would love a repeat with a full throttle run, that noise it makes really is something else, can it possibly be even better?

As I said, definitely one for the wish list.

Yep - all back. Simple problem with my fuel line.

Was all sorted without any grief by the factory in their normal exemplorary way (other manufacturers, particularly Bavarian ones, take note...).

At the moment I'm just bedding a few new things in so the "Engine upgrade - the next generation (TM)" can be put onto it . It's been a long time coming (but then I am such an upgrade junkie), but in final form it will be something special.

Power mad I am, power mad!

So are you running a 2.5 still or 3L ?

Still 2.5l - remember I've seriously upgrade the transaxle as well which would all have to be junked for a move to 3.0l.

Besides, I've got the GTC on order and so I'll wait then for my 3l fix
