Hi Guys,

As above, there is a complete kit available for the Noble out of high grade material. See here for a example pic:

http://www.actproducts.co.uk/shop/noble-m400-3r-fu...

There is an option for a group buy here to get the prices down a bit. The current cost is £479+Vat for the whole kit including Clips.

There is a cheaper kit but this is for all the hoses other than the ones that run down the tunnel (the straight lengths).

Need to get an idea of numbers if you are interested as I know a few people are looking at doing this over winter.

There are also possible options like colour. If the pipes that run down the middle stay blue then all the other pipes can be in almost any colour you want. Also I think an option without clips may well be on the cards for you guys that have all to bits and bobs in your sheds. lol

Delivery is 5wks if the colour i not blue otherwise it should be quicker.

P.S. Does anyone know if all the pipework is the same for the 3 and the 2.5?

So I shall start the list:

I'm told it should be the same (mine is a 2.5). However the guy said if there are any bits that are different then he will change them and make up the right part.

Yes apparently they are a lot and I think there are a few straight lengths required. Can't remember but he told me the total length of them all together and its a lot. lol

Far too dear for me Bondy, I'll just buy the straight lengths on their own elsewhere. Thanks for making the enquiries though, do we know what sizes are required from front to back yet?

well I want a kit, he sells them for £292 on ebay (incl vat) without the extra 12m of straight pipe so will be interested if its cheaper than this as I was about to buy this kit smile

Maybe he can give a group price for with straights and without?

I am the supplier, just here to answer some questions:
Red is possible for the basic kit without straights, infact any available colour is OK, the problem with coloured straights is that we have to buy the long lengths in min quantity of 10, so we only have blue in the straight lengths. this is because they are made in the UK on special tooling via SFS, I'm not interested in cheaper imported hose, there is 12m of straight hose and 40 hose clips in these kits hence the high price. There are 9 straight lengths 9.5 & 16mm, the longest length of straight is 3.6m.
SFS make the hoses from our tooling, so the quality speaks for itself, price is dictated by factory and standard margins apply, no "badge premium"
Any questions feel free to ask, you can email me: tim@actproducts.co.uk i'm only just getting into the Noble market so must be honest and say i'm not familiar with the possible variations of different models yet, but incase there are i'll do my best to cater for all, we do need to first check that the 2.5L uses the same hoses, maybe i need to supply the OP asap and Martin can then confirm, unless somebody can confirm. I'll discuss discount with OP
