Hi all,

Im contemplating entering into the world of Noble M12 ownership but a bit worried about running costs.

Can anyone give me some idea of servicing costs / intervals / overall reliability of it??

cheers

Andy

Servicing costs about the same as TVR, but reliabilty much better

It won't cost you an arm and a leg - I would say £1.5k to £2k per year tops.

Plus about 2.5k for a Roush exhaust

It's a 50k car, so expect a 50k car bills.

£1-2k with no major issues for 10-12k per year (each service is @ 6k), but always remember to be realistic about something failing.....

I'll have you know, Mr J, that my SL cost CONSIDERABLY more than your M400 thingy, and (touch wood) costs CONSIDERABLY less to run

... but not nearly so much fun

I'm sorry old bean, but £2.25k more is NOT considerably more

M400 is £1586 in servicing since I bought it and apart from the odd £2k or so for the Jasper special that's it.

18 months, 12000 miles.

Your SL????

(Oh, and PS, your car is PANTS )
