'Cost £64000 new! NO OFFERS, NO CANVASSERS. TEST DRIVES WELCOME (with a £52000 deposit).'

This sort of stuff has always put me off buying as there is always room for abit of negociation. There is two other M400 on there one for even less mileage/money. I'm sure if you dangle a decent offer in someone's face it will always get thinked on as the car market is on its arse at moment.

Don't know the car personally, but don't think it looks bad. I am always wary of cars that don't do very much milleage however. I always feel there might be a reason for that...?unreliability. Also, sitting in a garage without much use may result in pipe/tube/seal problems. I guess you'd have to see it.

As far as residuals, it appears Noble will continue to make the M400 but I haven't seen confirmation of that anywhere. Realistically, there are few cars that will not lose you much money depending on what milleage you do/how long you might wish to keep it.

I may be letting mine go soon for a lot less than this if you're interested (including an M400 plate).

£62500 new, so that's 20.8% drop in a year.

Given VAT accounted for 14.9% of that drop as soon as you walked out of the showroom, that's only 4.9% more off list for 1 year and 2000 miles.

Make your own conclusions.
