AZURE BLUE NOBLE M12 GTO - reg "AC51 TAX" - STOLEN!!

[Scooby P1]

Engine and chassis details:

Chassis SA9M12R1M1G113017
Engine number JN0017


It is time to see if it would be helpful for the entire Noble community to know about the theft of such a rare and exotic car from Ray West tuning at the weekend in Hampshire.

There doesnt seem to be much progress so far on the retrieval of either Ray's entire workshop OR the Noble so it's time to test if anyone hears of anything at all.

It's gutting. But why would they take such a tricky car to do anything with? Let's hope they figure that out and give it back.

Until then the details are: Azure blue, 11,700 miles, 2.5 GTO totally standard with a memorable numberplate AC51 TAX.

keep your eyes peeled and ears to the ground one and all.

Many thanks.

Would it not be best to post this in then more general forums as well ?

[Gadgeroonie]

the chassis numbers are all over the bodywork etc

do we know this number ?

[Scooby P1]

I will post look them up and post them.

Here's hoping it turns up pristine on a hard shoulder somewhere when they realise they cant do anything with it!!

Lawrence, absolutely gutted for both you and Ray. In a weird way, i am a bit gutted mine wasn't there as i have a tracker fitted. May have caught the Bellends in the act. Hope yours turns up as it was a lovely example. Best of luck.

Cheers Deano - i am glad they did not get yours as just imagine if they had done something to such a creation!
Such a shame there was no tracker but what the hell are these tossers going to do with it? Glad you got to see it before it went!
So back to the drawing board and just having rides in yours instead...

[daddysumo]

My money is on that pesky "Urb", he was kicking around that area last time he was on here poking people with a big stick, right dodgy geezer. Do you know him R0162

Joking apart, I do hope you find your P&J, I've had cars stolen (as well as vans, lorrys, trailers) and its gutting. The last car I had stolen was from Brooklands-TVR,(as it was back then) garage in Exeter, it was a WRX STI stolen to order so I was told by the plod, it still had its Jap limiter fitted, so not much good as a get away car, well over 110mph anyway. Hope it all works out for you.

Here's a photo to keep the dream alive that it might come back some day....

[GTO600]

Hope you do, if it's any consulation Noble had two stolen & some months later turned up in a lock-up !
Not an easy car to shift.

[Scooby P1]

Thanks Kevin.
Puts me back at the drawing board of Noble ownership - very annoying!

[snuffy]

How long does your insurance company wait until they declare it's stolen ?

[Scooby P1]

It's a great mate of mine's car that after the tune-up at Ray West i was buying off him.
So his insurance is waiting 30 days before declaring it 'lost'.

So it's been 9 days so far. There's still time for it to come back!

[snuffy]

Ah, I'd not realised it was not yours ( but now I think about it, maybe you did say that on a previous thread ).
