Nice Simon.
Also cant believe you sold the Noble, but i approve of the GTS.

Still think i would have mine in red though...and i have been looking for a long time but no funds and the Noble is not going anywhere.

Enjoy it.

Trust me yellow peril is an outstanding colour in so many ways!
Conrad it drives like a dream. It actually fills a few holes that the Noble has such as comfort and easiness to drive! Looks are a world apart but they both have their pluses and above all I haven't sold the Noble yet she's in my neighbours garage. He got a cursory ride in the 355....
Thanks for all the comments my advice would be if you can do.... But don't buy a red one. Lol

Forgot to add that the noise through Hindhead tunnel was epic but the best bit is that I will have to go back through it again to have the Capristo 1 fitted on Saturday which will be even louder. Woo hoo.... Sorry it's the child in me

Also forgot to add that you probably lose a little road feel and the standard wheel is too big to drive it properly. Ideal for cruising and playing as long as there aren't any sharp bends! It does however feel well planted, probably due to its weight at about 1600kg, but it definitely doesn't feel heavy to drive or manoeuvre. probably wouldn't keep up with the Noble but feels quick and sounds delightful while 'progressing'.

See it for the first time yesterday.

Looks great inside and out and it's sound, well what can I say. This clip doesn't do it justice.

Rob,

see your car there but was confused as it didn't say it was for sale but you had a number in the window but it said call Martin?

It made me think if it was your car or not but I'm sure it was.
