Cool, Well I'm in Rocdale but I'm working in Chester @ the momment, sounds like this could be fun.

I know this weekend might now be too good, bad weather and all, but how about saturday after that?, in the afternoon, somewhere central for everyone??

Just outside Stoke and work in Manchester.

Sounds good weather (and the missus) permitting.

I think that we should see how the weather is panning out coming up to next weekend . I try not to take it out if there have been gritters around as the chassis is not well protected , wet roads less of a problem ...dry roads bounce

£800 full service, belts the lot..£400 intermediate. not too bad really and they know the M12's inside out.

Where do you go Nigel?

Had it less than a year so have fixed the minor niggles etc myself as we specialise in looking after exotic cars...(see link to our website on my profile) , but I wondered whether to get it serviced at a dealer just for the stamp in order to keep the paper trail correct ...

Looks very interesting Nigel, I used to be a mechanic myself many years ago.

With the servicing Nigel I take to the main dealer because they have the knowledge of the car, I'm not really that bothered about the stamps in the book myself, I'm not planning on parting with it ever!

Good man ! ...sort of similar to my thinking ,but you never know , when the new Noble comes out might want to sell it ???

To be honest , am thinking to fit , at some time , a Roush exhaust , bigger turbos (to hold boost higher up the rev range) and some other small mods so not sure how the warranty would stand up anyway .....going to Oulton park in a month or so which passes Christopher Neills , so that would be the time to decide I suppose .

Those mods could be interesting Nigel, although mine has a boost controller on it that seems to keep it around +.5 bar on boost.

I'd like to pop up and see your garage sometime (Iknow, anorak!)

Are you in Blackurn?
