Have spoken to the factory and I am just waiting for them to finalise the prices.

No idea why, but I love the whole idea of it!

. The reviews by Autocar and Autoexpress have been amazing. I've ordered and looking forward to be back in an Ariel vehicle again.

now with supercharger

It looks so cool. It's like the ultimate SUV, imagine picking your kid up from school in that.

And then driving over their football pitches.

Had my test drive last year, the Orange Nomad was being used by Autocar for the drivers car of the year feature, so I drove the gold and yellow(sometimes green) demo car.
This is the more off-road version, with chunkier tyres etc.
The trip to Ariel made me realise I need to spend more cash, such as stainless fixings, underbody protection etc.
Have decided to get the supercharged version, which entails a £1200 heavy duty clutch as well as the extra for the charger.
The Nomad drives much as expected, it's fast, very comfy over bumps, very cold smile.
Really looking forward to getting a build date now.

Nearly got to signing but just a little shocked at the options list.
One thing I did not realize is that you need to spend £3k just to get it on the road - lights, indicators, IVA - all that stuff I assumed would be standard.....
Suddenly being able to just about afford it as £34k becomes really straining at £40k.
Still, there's one up here for sale - fairly standard spec and they're asking over £50k - making £10k profit seems a bit hopeful!!!
Please get in touch if you've made the leap - be keen to chat.

You would do well to get a Nomad for £40k , the windscreen is £1800, standard brakes are a bit puny.
I reckon mine will be approaching £60k with supercharger , and that is not going mad.
There is not £10k profit in that Dick Lovett car, maybe £5 to £7 K max
