Sadly today I received back my deposit from Noble for my M15. Was holding out but no info. Strange after I sold my M12 the deposit made me feel like I still had a connection with the brand but alas thats gone.


On the bright side I was talking to Dean in Rossion last week about my order and things are moving along nicely (just sad that Noble couldn have taken the time to do the same)

Roll on Rossion!

To clarify, did you ask for the deposit back or are they starting to return them?

O ye of little faith. The new noble will happen. Admittedly patience is being tested but an exciting car is on the horizon.

My dad was in the Merchant Navy. He explained to me that, try as you might, you can never reach the horizon. Unfortunately I think that's just where the new Noble will always be.

Ah..but the island on the horizon gets closer every day. Providing you are going in the right direction at an appropriate speed you will get to the island. Everything that I am hearing suggests Noble are going in the right direction at the right speed. I am looking forward to putting my foot on land in the not too distant future. Fortunately the island has tarmac and the promise of something worth waiting for to try out when we land.

Eh . . . . Im at the horizion now and its its a place called Rossion!

Half the price of the M15, will drive it this summer, as good looking as the M15 will be, as much power and speed as I need, will handle like all Nobles before if not better, proper ineterior.

To be honest I cant believe more Nobler's arnt going for it especially in light of the news blackout from Noble!

I am in the same position as others who are on the waiting list for the new car. I contact Noble and discuss progress regularly (including this week) and I am satisfied with each step that is being taken. I too would like the car today/yesterday but I am confident that its release is much closer now. I have seen the debates on this forum referencing other failed manufacturers (TVR etc) but the language being used by Noble at present suggests to me that the new car will be available soon and it will be fantastic.

In desparation, men may see islands on the horizon where none exist.......

Now, I must go and get my deposit down for a reproduction of the emperor's new clothes so I am first on the list when that fine suit is finished!

I hope your feelings of imminence are accurate - but we here have reached this point three times now - same language too!
