Justin,
Have you or Marcos got any pictures of the lights on lighter coloured cars?
Thanks, Martin.

[joust]

There is a picture of one on a light blue car on the noble owners club mailing list...

This is not a job for the faint hearted!

I'll be honest, I really wasn't a fan of the lights when they were first posted, but then I started to like them a little.

Now I love them. I think they look great in daylight, and even bloody better in the dark.

This is the one from the track day.

Its not a great pic unfortunately. Saw the lights in the flesh today as they were on a car in at vegantune. Looked very nice.

I know who it is, he's a PHer. I'll leave it up to him to announce himself!

Talking of cosmetic modifications I was chatting to a chap the other day who has completely remodelled the centre console of his 3R. I'll try and get some pictures of it.

For what it's worth Joust I think the lights look fantastic!
Incidentally, not wishing to sound like complete anorak but where did you take those photographs??!! I've been looking for somewhere similar for ages now to use as a backdrop for some shots. Would be most appreciative if you could give some info!!

Cheers, Rich.

The ones in front of planes are at Bruntingthorpe proving ground. Presumably during last weekends VMax.

There's a Carrera GT on that trackday too if you look at the other pics. I really like the yellow he got it in, so much less bland looking. Still doesn't do much for me though.

[riccardo]

Thanks Dan! I'll have to make a trip up there I think! Luckily that place is only about 40mins away from me.

Congrats on the new addition by the way!

The others are around a place near Ashby st Ledgers.

Oh O.K so not at your Gaff then!!!!!!!

They are great pics mate! Can anybody get access that close to them??
I see you use a 300D. How do you find it? I'm currently debating on whether to get a 20D or 1Ds at the moment for action shoots.

When is your new addition going to arrive????

300D rocks. 20's/1's are very very good, although if you are buying second hand make sure they haven't been "abused"....

[riccardo]

Yeah I know what you mean!!
Cheers for the advice!

Nice to see my the pics of my car featured at the Bedford Autodrome trackday (about to eat those Porsches and that Caterham ahead)! The turbo charger is now hanging off and I had no brakes left at the end of the day. That's why Vegantune have got the car now! The lights do look nice though - will be getting some smoked side repeaters to match and will then have to work out how to post pictures on the web!

By the way Dan, tried to email you from your profile - got a system error or something. How do you get to the rest of your pictures? I could only get to the picture of my car. I agree the yellow Carrera GT looked great (but prefer Silver or Black). I thought we were going fast but he stormed past on the back straight - managed to hang on round the twisty bits.

The commerical ones you can buy are here :

Here's the one I pulled that shot out of :

I've already got the side repeaters on mine that vegantune have. You could get them to do them whilst they have your car I imagine. Was about 20 quid IIRC.

Paul@vegantune did mention that they had a noble in for fettling by saturday for dunsfold. Is that you?

I think the personal emails are blocked at the moment after the mass spamming of all members last week.

Geoff,
Did you manage to speak to Plans motorsport about the Dunsfold day this Saturday?

And the owners club mailing list is at http://lists.easynet.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nobleowners if you've not managed to find it!

Anthony.

[N1 GJT]

Thanks guys!
Vegantune are fitting the repeaters - they seem really helpful!
Can't make Dunsfold after all, but will keep my eyes skinned for future track days, outings etc.
