Hi guys,

It's a couple on months off yet but wanted to know if any of you have any recommendations?

The car has previously been looked after by Vegantune but have seen that some people use Plans. Is there much between them?

Try Gary Reynolds - he used to be the Noble man at Vegantune
Very competitive rates

Depends where you are of course. Plans Motorsport now have about 50 Nobles as clients and I think its fair to say that apart from the factory no one has more experience of tracking/racing Nobles than they do. They do fixed price servicing and know how to setup cars. Highly recomended but not if you are in Scotland!
Regards
Paul C (a Plans customer)

I would definitely use Gary who is now at crazyhorsesracing.com....right next to vegantune. Took my M400 there soon after I bought it for a thorough inspection and going over....he has made it new again.

Top bloke and really good at what he does...and labour rates cheaper than most.

So let me get this straight - Gary has left Vegantune to run a rolling road business next door but is also offering Noble servicing - so is competing with Vegantune?!

and has Vegantune as the contact details on his (otherwise exemplary) web site.

Surely a collaboration?

I wouldn't be able to tell you re:collaboration/competition between Gary and vegantune...I assume given they are next door they must talk to each other/help each other out. I do know that Gary offers Noble servicing however...and has Noble's blessing to do so. I'll be asking Gary to do my 18k service as I was hugely impressed with his service...very personal and very helpful, even called me back at 9-10 pm to let me know how things were going.

Thanks for all the replies fellas.

I live in West Malling KENT (Junction 4 M20)so from what I can gather both companies or should I say three companies are all witin striking distance.

Looks like I will have to make my mind up closer to the time.

Thanks again

James.

P.S. Anyone got any figures for the 18000 mile inspection as that is what I will need?

Mole Valley is very near to you then. Warren has been servicing Nobles since they started, and as Mole Valley is the largest selling dealer of them all they have significant experience.

They have certainly looked after mine very well over the years.

I hope Gary and Richard are cooperating - it can only do them both damage of they don't.
If they're competing may I suggest a (preferrably large and well armed) group of us knock some heads together?
