Apparently, we'll see the M14 at the MPH05 show in Birmingham and London - there'a one-page advert in today's Times - doesn't say whether the M14 will be part of the show or static though.

Any other news on the M14?

[joust]

It's in bits in the factory

If press cars are going to be ready when they say they are, then final signoff must be soon, although I do expect Lee to use the learning from this weekends Britcar 24hours to fine tune the cooling etc for it.

Not so I'm told.

The MPH05 pic was just used without permision. Noble have never been called about any thing to do with MPH 05 and there will not be any nobles present.

Here endeth the gospel according to Stuart Jones the other day.

Greg,

I think you may have misinterpreted what Stuart told you.

While this advert is not a Noble ad, and exists to promote the show, not the car, the use of the image was obviously authorised by us because we will have a presence at the show and in the live theatre.

We have made no promises to MPH about exhibiting the M14 (you'll note the line at the bottom of the ad, which reads 'It may be necessary to change the car line-up without notice due to unforseen circumstances')because we cannot guarantee that this car will be ready in time.

As I have stated on this forum - and to people who have placed deposits on the M14 - Noble is aiming for a press launch of the new car late this year with a view to delivering the first customer cars in quarter-one of 2006.

Currently, development is very much under way and we are extremely happy with what has been achieved to date. I will obviously keep deposit placers and the press informed when we are closer to a launch date.

I see, sorry for the confusion. Well I for 1 hope that its ready as thats the main reason I bought tickets the the MPH show!

I have never seen an M14 in the flesh and can't wait to do so! I will be sure to be leaving my wallet at home though! Just incase I like it as much as I am sure I will!!

Autocar this week (1st Nov edn.): M14 due for release Winter 2006!

[joust]

It's been like that in the "cars worth waiting for" for months and months

Technically "winter" spans 05 and 06, so who knows if they have made a mistake....

Autocar is correct - I told them early this year that we were aiming for a first-show before the end of the year.

By the way, if you thought the M400 was good....

I have never been so excited about seeing a car! I feel like a kiddy on Christmas Eve.
