Hi all,
I've been invited to be involved in a Noble M12 buying guide that EVO magazine are putting together for a future issue.
I've got a 2.5, so will comment on LSD and TDS upgrades, and the ecu upgrade.
What other essential info is needed for other models?
Also, I will plug this website

Make sure you mention that the TDS and LSD are options, and that they still handle very well without an LSD! From my research it seems diffs have only been chewed up by those running more power than standard. TDS is obviously only required if you want an all out track car... it's not absolutely necessary for road use.

Fuel pump wiring too.

I would also recommend a fan wiring upgrade (fuses for each one, rather than both wired into the single 40A) (unless it was just mine that was stupid)

Oh and make sure you tell them they're worth more if they're 2.5s, something like £30k will do nicely hehe

Also, blue ones are fastest right?

How strange they want to do another one, after all the models haven't changed since me and Obes did the original.

Cheers all, don't know why they are doing another one, think it also relates to affordable drivers cars, so maybe they are combining both.
The photos get taken next week, and quite looking forward to it
