Bored at work today me & a mate were trawling through AT (He's after a pickup) & came across this for sale :-
http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/www/cars/NOBLE/Ne-2-4-5-6-7-8-27-44-49-53-61-64-67-103-133-146-236,N-4294965387/advert.action?R=200822310878844&distance=26&postcode=fk3+9ar&channel=CARS&make=NOBLE&model=&min_pr=&max_pr=&max_mileage=
£19k on an 03 plate with 50k, got me thinking it might be a good purchase, possibly better than other things ive had in mind - should there be something like this available at the time im looking.
I dont know much about them except a few on here rate them....some dont I was hopping some peeps that are clued up might be able to share the craic!
So lets go 2nd hand Noble M12 - Yes/No/Why

Looks weird without the spoiler!
I'm not sure i'd want one tbh, can imagine they would be be costly if go wrong but that's just a perception I have. I should also imagine they feel pretty cheap.

boss at work has one - he is running over 420 BHP on his
The early ones do not have baffles in the sump and so they get hammered especially if used on the track alot as the oil doesn't circulate properly
This was resolved in later models

I dont know if they look slightly 2002 Max Power....maybe a bit, theres something that makes me think good grief, but also Damn
I was thinking a M3 or 330Ci for my next car, would have about 16k cash.......but a Noble for 3 more, thats got to be worth taking a bit on tick??
Im just wanting to to get gen'd up on them really, I dont know alot about them.

I like them. so what if it has Mondeo rear lights, its one of a very few cars using other car parts that actually make them look good!! Ford engine is a plus point too, I never read any bad things about Fords mechanically (Mechanics don't count as they say all cars are shit!) 19k is a bargain for what is essentially a budget super car!
0-60 in under 4 sec and 60-100 in under 5.5 sec!!!!!
