Hi, I want to get a Noble!

This http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&am... has caught my eye... unsurprisingly!

It has 5 owners, so perhaps someone knows about it?

At the price it is, I think I could budget for a respray and the price would still be ok?

Any comments welcome!

Thanks

I've seen a link but can't find any discussion on it?

I've spent hours searching for it laugh

it has been up for sale several times

you need to find ojut why it has had a respray - ie was it a cat C/D

may be a very genuine car

see if it has had an LSD and track day sump fitted

It's apparently HPI clear, but the reg is half hidden so can't be checked.

It wouldn't have been that green from standard? Why on earth...!

It does have a track sump, just asked about LSD.

£18k + a respray, not too bad I don't think.

Just found out it's had "light front damage"...

That looks awesome... but out of my price range. A respray in that colour?

It was a cat d in 2004, some football player who first had it crashed it.

Should have seen him squirm when I told him I know just after he said it was HPI clear... Text check, wonderful thing.

Also a squeek coming from the rear left, he reckoned it was the exhaust bungees? Loads of muck trapped on top of the floor pan. Normal? Drivers seat worn right through on the bolster, passenger seat starting to go.

Just to clear something up, is it the green car which is a CAT D?

Yes it is, though he is selling it saying it is HPI clear. Be warned!
