Hi Nick, Thought you were going to Anglesey last W/e.
IT was fantastic yesterday, not a cloud in sight and a perfect track.
Another Noble appeared (a blue one) with a personal plate so there were 2 of us.

Mine's Indigo blue and LF52 - but wasn't me - it was back in the garage at 4:00pm after being Swissol'd and a trip to the pub

hi nick - hope you had a good holiday. yesterday was norlog so we wuz off over saddleworth & pennines - agree that it was a glorious day, empty dry roads, just superb....

BTW, will be spectating at anglesey on march 29th (an LRV day), so might see you there?

the noble looked darker than azure - i guess that would be indigo then?

didn't sound too loud i must admit, but then i don't know if they come with sports exhausts as standard or not? i'd have followed it further (it was heading towards warrington town centre) but i had to get home.

Nick - pictures of my indigo one abound in my profile / web site.

2.5l come with a very "quiet" exhaust systems as standard compared to tuscan bike cans / tubi exhausts - not that it affects it's performance

3.0l have a significantly different exhaust note, and there are some non-standard systems starting to appear that the factory is doing "on demand".

I remember someone in an Elise suddenly looming up on me so I slipped into the roundabout without breaking, left it in 4th and just road the thick end of the torque curve out of the corner – I think you where about 30-40 meters behind me by the time you exited the roundabout? I wasn’t really going for it so I assume you got caught up in the traffic…

Quite right about the colour – it’s a non standard pearlessant blue – so depending on the light it’s either much darker or much lighter than Noble’s azure… Have a look here - www.despistada.co.uk/newarrival there’s a colour shot that gives the general impression…

Andrew

you missed the bit "dove across 2 lanes to go straight on via the left turn only lane thus bypassing all the traffic at the lights"

nice pics on the site....are you in warrington much?

Traffic lights? I was only following your lead...

I was over that way for a wedding as I'm acutally based down South. However the general lack of traffic and the ambling b roads in Cheshire when compared to the South East make a compelling reason to visit my folks more often…
