Will be interesting to see it finally signed, but I know they are looking for a carbon option.

I was given a lead to make a steering wheel for the new car but they never answer any e-mails and I have now given up.

can I have the mule when they've done with it ? ...a nice coat of paint and it would look ok ....I could maintain it for them as a piece of Noble history .... (I'm only kidding , looking quite good though )

Just out of Curiosity - knowing how brand loyal you appear to be - will you still be getting your Mx? or if as it seems Lee will no longer be a part of the project will it taint the ownership expirence for you?

I think if the car comes to fruition it may well be an awesome bit of kit - however I will not put my money down untill I see some evidence (I lost money on the M250 project) and I refuse to have my fingers burnt twice....

I may well loose a fair bit of cash on my current car (infact I will) but it will be no where near what my TCO for the Noble was - but I do go in eyes wide open now - currently no car I buy or am interested in is a cash investment more an investment in fun!

Why?

Do you not think it'll get that far?

Given the interior is not signed off I suspect some way away!
Just to confirm that I am at the moment working on the developement of the interior trim for the next Noble which of course I can not comment on,but rest assured this car will be produced and will be well worth waiting for.

Not now it won't as Lee has setlled the case with Dyson. He has done this to safeguard his family and their home. Knowing what I do I would never ever trust Noble (company) with my money. I can also say that certain people at the top in the company should not be trusted and are nasty pieces of work indeed. Look out for the new Lee Noble project. It will certainly bring some smiles to some faces when it is launched!

All will be revealed. I have been lucky enough to see the nucleus of his new toy and I have pledged him my money already! Not for me to say what it is as I have been taken into his confidence but it will turn heads, hearts and pulses too! I, like many others, am really pleased to see Lee back in action doing what he does best. making stonking cars that are fun and with none of the bullst that has been Noble for the last 3 or 4 years.

Hope you have deep pockets!!

AFAIK Noble was effectivly bankrupt before dyson stepped in, suppliers were not getting paid, parts supply was terrible for owners etc.
IMO, Lee Noble is a very good automotive engineer, but a useless salesman and director.
It always amazed me how Lee drove a porker (parked outside the factory in full view in parking space with his name on...not the best advert for the company, at least Dyson has a Noble (and flew Bill from the factory over to the states to build it AFAIK.)
