I've been considering buying a Noble M12 for the last few months, however the one thing that has stopped me is how practical is it for every day use?

I'm not worried about boot space etc, more has anyone got any experience of running one of these beauties as an every day car?

Thanks

Jason

There are plenty of owners on here that drive them every day and have no issues. Me, as I get the train in every day into the smoke I only use it at weekends and the odd weekday out-of-town meeting. For that role it's perfectly happy.

Jason - I use mine everyday (unless there's salt on the roads). I commute into West London on the M4 in heavy traffic and it copes fine in stop/start traffic plus there's always the option of taking the favourite B road route home, which I do often . The front splitter has only grounded a couple of times on entering heavy camber roads from a slanted drive or road, but taking these at an angle gets round that. Speed ramps have not been a problem so far. The only small practicality issue I have found is no boot or out of sight storage space, so you can't leave anything (shopping, sports bag etc) in the car. The upside is that you get to drive one of the best drivers cars everyday, which gets a great reaction wherever you go - certainly makes the commute more interesting

Like Humpy I use mine almost every day. It's great except in heavy rain on the motorway when the spray coming off lorry wheels goes straight in your face.
There's just enough room for a shotgun case on the rear shelf so you can take it shooting too.
