Got up close and personal with one at a Supercar show a few years back and it was magnificent. Yamaha engined and lots of nice handmade touches. It's a shame the car only made one of the eight runs we did over the weekend before it was low loaded away frown

It’s a lovely thing although it’s a brave man who buys being so different. Would be perfect for those that already have a few other toys.

Makes me think Ferrari F40 - a proper crazy dream car. I even love the looks and slightly "handcrafted" look to them as I do with the F40!

What a magificient piece of kit (pun not intended)! I love the exterior and even the humble interior that goes along well with its 'driver engagement above all' philosophy. Yes you can buy a Mclaren for the same kind of money, etc but I guess it's on another level when it comes to driving experience.

Pretty sure they were circa £300k new.

This is a supercar for drivers, not posers. A magnificent machine that will only appeal to a vanishingly small number of buyers.

Don't care what anyone else says (in a negative sense) - that is clearly a pretty special motor.
Even if I can't afford one right now.

Whilst maybe not a kit car per se, it is definitely has the air of a parts bin special.

Are they ford indicator stalks?

Drop Dead Gorgeous.

Were I a multi millionaire (or possibly just a millionaire), one of these would undoubtedly be in my garage.

The 2nd car I'd purchase if my numbers came up. Blue carbon Speedster please.
It's true that there are probably 'better' supercars out there for the same money, some with what are apparently desirable badges and that all important racing pedigree (despite the car never having raced), but compared to this they are all anodyne appliances. Get in, turn key, pull paddle if you're feeling adventurous, then sit back and watch the car do it all for you. Not so in a Noble. McLarens sound terrible on the street, changing gear like my Nan's old automatic Metro, same for Ferrari. This rumbles, with a sense of occasion.
The last true drivers car?

No doubt an impressive car - but £160K? I completely understand why many would take this over Ferrari / Lambo on the image front (the default choice of footballers / hedge fund managers etc) - I don't think it warrants the outlay. If i wanted a fast capable manual supercar that people might actually let out at junctions and react positively too - then for me a TVR Sagaris would tick those boxes - with £100K spare change...

Still for sale 18 months later for £20K less.

I like the fact it’s analogue and left field. Does make me wonder what it’s true value is though. £100K? It’s a lot of car and I think with a 5 figure asking price, I might be tempted.

Always struck me as odd that anyone would keep a car ( or a house for that matter) on sale for almost 2 years. When I decide to off something, I either get what I can for it or if it’s not enough, keep it.

Keeping something for sale publicly for so long seems neither own thing nor the other.

I wonder what a true dealer bid would be on this. £80K?
