A 21 year old local to me is selling his car :roll:




For sale is my Noble M12 with less than 12k miles on it.

Awesome car but just not practical enough really. A new diff is being fitted at the moment. It is in electric blue and is standard 2.5l with a 0-60 time of 3.9s in great condition inside and out with a small ship on drivers door but nothing to take away from overall value of car.

If you interested or know anyone that would be please call 07720274838 or e-mail contact@speedball-rally.co.uk

Its worth the right side of 25k if its mechanically sound. You can pick a nice M12 GTO 3R (3.0, 6speed, with LSD) up for 30k.

It looks a nice one from the exterior, but mechanically theres quite alot to look out for...the diff being one area. Others include wheel bearings, suspension joints, and cracked exhaust manifolds.

Sound easy enough to sort, but diff is engine out, and the other parts are replaced on an hourly workshop charge of £75/hr...not many of these owners are DIY!

Not as much "fun" to drive as a Clio 8)

Different league in terms of performance tho...awesome machines.

Nah I disagree sorry!

In a straight line definately, on any large, long, sweeping corner...maybe...on the twisties definately not.

They grip like fook...SO planted...but im talking about on-the-edge fun.

BTW, ive had more hours driving Nobles than most Noble owners :lol:

WHo does your servicing and tuning work?

A bloke I used to work with at Vegantune has set up on his own in Potters Bar. He has his rolling road fully set up now, and offers Noble authorised servicing at cheapest prices you'll find.
HE knows these cars inside out, and aswell as servicing.mainteneance work, he can put together many tuning options/packages.

give him a call

Yup Crazy Horses is Garry's firm...

Roush are good, Trevor knows his shit when it comes to engine calibration etc, but for actual servicing, Garry is faultless, and at the best prices for thses cars. I'll be over his way over xmas, so i'll tell him to keep an eye out for you :D

Did you ever visit Vegantune?

Nope, never been there, Roush is just so handy cos i can get a lift home when i drop the car off. They are really busy with other stuff at the moment though so i had to get the first MOT done elsewhere recetly and went to TVR Centre nr Barnet, will definately consider CHR next time though.
