Might just have something to do with Noble's PR man Simon Hucknall having been an Autocar road tester before joining Lee & Co.

True - Steve Sutcliffe will be running a 3R for a few months as a long term car. As I understand it he's as happy as a dog with two dicks at the prospect, and understandably so.

Here's my dilemna - I could do with some advice. "Our" car will be displayed on our stand at Autosport International next weekend. Someone had to take on the tough job of bringing the car back to the office afterwards. Noble offered to transport the car but I selflessly stepped in and offered to do it for them (hey, we all have to make sacrifices from time to time). If you were me would you;

- make the trip on Sunday evening (from the NEC to my house in Tooting) and then have to sit in traffic on Monday morning.

- Stay in Brum on the Sunday night and then make the trip on Monday after the morning rush hour.

Thoughts?

option c - get the car on sunday night and take the long way home with a good b road blast lasting a few hours, get up early on monday and go for another blast arriving at work late and missing the traffic.
