Guys,
Currently on the look-out for the right car, need to know if any of you guys drive them hard on the road, and I mean hard, what are they like coping with the good old Britih roads, humps,bumps etc.
At the moment a few of us meet on a regular basis and drive some awesome routes at unbelievable speeds, I just need to know if these cars will cope as well as my present beast, ( Z3MCoupe, with KW suspension ).
Steve.

I hope your post doesn't indicate you are being irresponsible as there is a time and a place for pressing on in cars on the road, and I hope you are only doing it in places that are the time and the place.
If that's the case, then the Noble is stunning, and not much will be better this side of £150k.
M400 has the edge if you are really pressing on on b-roads, but you do need to load the suspension up otherwise a 3R has the slight edge comfort (although probably not speed) wise IMHO.

The answer is yes, within reason of course.
The 3s have a front splitter. It will split when you hit bumps. The M400 does not have this, so nothing to break. You can have one fitted if you wish.
The 3s are easier, as Justin says. But both will soak up the bad bits when you need it to.

You've got it bl00dey good in the UK! 
Many of you will not have seen the Autocar artical in issue No.26 2003 dated 25th June, Britain's Fastest Car from A to B .
For serious enthusiasts,this is the supreme quest. To drive as rapidly as possible across country without taking unnecessary risks. Ten different cars on one secret B road. A certain Simon Hucknall was one of the five testers. One of my favorite reads in any car mag. Get your hands on a back copy if you can.

The Noble hasn't won Britian's Best Driver Car for nothing!
