............that will see me move on to pastuers new.

Never thought I'd sell her, but the lure of racing and tracking a car that won't break the bank if I bend it, has got me gripped.

I'm already thinking about getting another one in a couple of years! Or maybe an M600 if they live up to the hype. wink

I'll be back smile

Sorry to read this Gregor and I appreciate that the decision must have been very difficult. Good luck in your new small toy. biggrin

I'm starting to feel a little lonely here being one of the few remaining Noble 1.0 owners (1.0 = M12/M400 original, from new, owner).

Greg, might be worth saying in ad , number plate no included in sale( I am guessing it isnt)

Good to see you yesterday.

Sad to see another long time owner go.

Just Like to add that Greg's car is in great condition and I think a cracking buy.

No idea how much to ask really. Some are on very cheap right now. Not in a massive rush to sell (especially now the sun is out)wink

If there are any other tips on the ad then please let me know. I'll give it a week or two then pop it on autotrader for the non-ph acustomed out there.

Not sure if I'm doing the right thing really, but after 3 years and 11,000 miles, I think there are a few other cars I'd like to try. Thats why I bought the elise, not cause I'll love it, but because it'll give me the trackday and b road blasts that I'll miss in the Noble, but I will hopefully then be able to play in some other machinery too smile

Diablo VT is on the list wobble


I reckon I'll be back in an M600 within a year or two smile

Isn't swopping numberplates over a bummer! Should have just flogged it when I had the chance!

Can't swop from one car to the next (10 days) as I don't have the new cars V5 yet, and they say it'll take 4-8 weeks to put mine onto retention before I'll get the Noble's V5 back! I can't se the new owner wanting to buy it with no V5. confused
