Did you try the "I've only just brought the car and this time last year you did a special offer".

There offer ended Nov last year and I had mine done in Jan for £881 inc Vat.

They must be getting busy?

Yep, gave it my best plea, but the best they would do was £1,000 + Vat. I suspect you're right about them being busy.

Out of interest - I have access to a normal sump. Does anyone know if there's a company that can adapt them to turn them into a track day sump? If so who?

With a new engine costing upwards of £8k, do you really want to risk that?????

Speak to Pace, they have a dry sump kit that will fit.

You loose the air con and need to find a place for the sump tank but a whole lot less work than doing your own track sump.

Thanks - I am going to stick with a Noble supplied one. Just wondered if I could get one any quicker than the 4 weeks they're quoting.

Humpy - speak to Gary ( I think he may be able to get you a sump a bit quicker than that )

It was Gary that made the enquiry at the factory - they told him 4 weeks. Guess I'll just have to patient - in the meantime, I am not pushing it round roundabouts and corners, not being sure what damage I might do confused

None. You'll only kill it on very long fast corners, and then only one after another. Bedford (the track not the place) is an oil starvation killer, and not only for Nobles.
