Did the same in Arras last month. Just sat in an adjacent bar and watched the reactions

The French certainly love Nobles, mine got lots of attention driving through Annecy and throughout the Alps last week. As for the Itlain schoolkids in Courmayeur, well you'd have thought Enzo Ferrari had his private collection of fezzas out, they went beserk !

I was with the Lambo in front and hes a little wider than me so they let me travel with him . We had just come back from a weekend in Bruges iam sure I had more people looking at mine than his

I'll let you off. They threw me in the F-Type into the coach set anyway so it made my life easy, it does fit but only with ~1" to spare on each side at the rear....

Bit cheeky, but match you, and it's not only Noble British sports cars they seem to like



I did Riems, Chatillon-sur-Seine, round Dole, over Morez, Geneva, Annecy, Albertville, Valloire to L2A.

Although it did rain on the last bit....



We went from there to Avignon via Route Napoleon, then to Barcelona via Carassonne so that meant we just "had" to go over the Pyrenees and then back to L2A via the coast.

Sorry for the thread hijack with a puddycat. There are a few more pictures in the Jag forum if anyone is interested.

Presume you must have done the telegraph and galibier from valloire ? the col de l'Iseran is worth doing especially the roads at the bottom towards Modane. We had torrential rain up and down the col du madeline - during which i have to say the R1R's were awesome - and had one day where a speedboat would have been a better option so driving was replaced by wine consumption.

The Noble was great, ran well, no issues, but could have done with the Jag's luggage capacity !

the old track at Reims is worth a visit, quite interesting. Track record held by Fangio i understand, now a series of public roads with the old grandstand and pits.

Noble near Spa Francorchamps track:

Blimey - Owen's old beast. No longer purple then. Ah, if only I could have opened the door in my garage at the time. Parked it in there and unless I wanted to spend time between drives sat in the car it was a no go.

A lovely, dark blue M12 in West Bridgford, Nottingham tonight. Plate ended 'ERS.'

I could post others, but with the Noble factory being 250yds from my office in Leicester it might be classed as cheating!

Please explain.

Blue 3R/M400 (NBL?)spotted passing through Stock this morning around half 9. I only saw you last minute but managed a quick flash of lights! I was in the blue fiesta ST.

[arabian]

That was me - in Stock - sorry I didn't have time to flash back !

Just seen X6 GTO white in chingford station, liking all the vents and rather savage diffuser !

[FoMoCoJoe]

Oh don't worry, It was a very late reaction anyway! They sound good through small towns, lots of noise bouncing off the buildings!

Fun roads around there. One of my best mates lives near Lodsworth. Would have been a nice day for a blast round there today!

Good job chaps.

[mgbond]

That's my route every day, it's even fun in the Seat. To be honest it's probably better in the Seat as it's easier to drive on the limit on the tight roads. Lol
