I suppose the only thing to make sure you have for track is a track day sump , everything else is pretty much ok out the box .
of course there are things you can upgrade for reliability and performance but that is very much a choice rather than a necessity .
Agree - well said that man.of course there are things you can upgrade for reliability and performance but that is very much a choice rather than a necessity .
got to say though that im assuming the car has already had a fuel pump wiring upgrade !!!! this is a must even for a road going car but there cannot be many cars out there that have not already been upgraded .
A std car can also benefit massively from upgrades to the intercooler , dampers and tyres , changing these can make a big difference to the way the car drives and grips .
if I was buying a std car I would also consider the chocolate std diff in the 5 speed and the dodgy Noble quality exhaust manifolds that seem to crack very easily !!
That's the Problem with a std Noble you can do so much to improve what out the box is a stunning car to drive and why so many owners upgrade rather than sell .

Sorry for the late reply, thank you so much for all the knowledge and information. I know people will differ as to what to have mod wise but all your comments have been taken on board. I will take my time looking at a few as mentioned and not rush to find my perfect one. Thanks again and hope to be back with pictures of the one I have purchased :-)
Morning everyone, just a quick one. Servicing? I know there are some specialists out the mole valley, noble Motorsport and lotus centre. I am from the south east (Essex) where's the best place obviously I don't mind driving, and is it at early service or 6k? For a standard service without parts needed how much should I be planning?
Cheers in advance

Basic service at Bespoke in Ware usually costs me under £300 including a complete check over by Skippy who produces a list of things that might need attention before the next visit.
I do hope that's a typo! I've heard good things about jetstream. No haven't got one yet I'm really after an azure blue gto 3 or 3r that's been well looked after. Probably looking at the end of summer as there are not many out there atm. That's a really reasonable price for servicing pleasantly surprised :-). I'm from Hornchurch sjc.

Then you've got Kerridges in Needham market about 60 miles from you who I've used for 23 years. May want to have a chat with Steve on 01449 720222 and see what he's got coming in as well?sjc said:
