Been looking for one preferably in blue and seen this one. Been in trader a few weeks. There doesn't seem to be many for sale at the moment.

Obviously not the best description, there needs to be loads more info and that one is not half leather it's Alcantera(not sure how to spell it).

If looking at that I would do a lot of research into factory upgrades etc.

and there aren't going to be any more made so I'd add a premium of 100% as a classic collectors car. Snap em up if you can.

I posted up about this car in june and didnt get any info.

I have also (twice) had unanswered emails that I sent to them, but I see its dropped from 25k to 23k.

I emailed them last night again in fact, so will see how it goes, just asking about the ECU / Diff / fan info etc.

Thought I would update on this -

I find emailing about cars easy and a good way of getting info, especially when I am busy at work.

So I emailed a few lines asking a few questions, details of my exige, what sort of deal could they do / etc etc - you know, a friendly email wanting to know more about what I would potentially be spending £23k on

This is the reply I got -

"Has upgrade ECU
Has had a new gearbox"

That was it! Nothing about who it was to, from, details of tradein, nowt. 8 WORDS!

Assuming it's the same car, from the same seller [which it looks like]. I had it looked at and I didn't buy it. It didn't have a track day sump [even though it says so in the service book] this was verified by two trained Noble mechanics [who know what one looks like]. It had a standard diff. Pre upgrade fans and new ECU IIRC. As always, if you are buying a Noble make sure you get it looked at by a Noble mechanic.

* words = 1 less customer they get what they deserve.....

Don't get me started on car sales people - I've only met about 3 good ones.

Yes a pathetic way to sell a car. One of the blue ones even says its a GTO-3 then has in the advert description 2.5. The one on champcars.com also seems to jump frequently on pistonheads from £32995 to £30995. If they won't bother replying to me then let em sell to some other mug willing to spend 25k-30k on nil points of customer service.
