So whats a Noble like when compared to a Cerbera then?
Loved my Cerb, kept it 3 years, never kept any of my other 3 TVRs more than 18 months, but now on my 2nd Noble and wouldn't go back.Better built,probably quicker in a straight line, no contest in the twisties,only thing it lacks in comparison to the Cerb is a charasmatic engine note. You'll be impressed.

Seriously looked at one of these as they are a superb well capable bit of kit, but turned out for me, to be too one way focused.... a track toy. I ended up settling for a Tuscan S coz it has a boot and superb performance as well. It offered track day fun but is a road car with luggage space. However after only 6 months ownership the Tuscan sh*t its guts and 3 years later has ended up being a huge fanancial outlay for many a stupid reason. How ever its now very unique.

The long and short of it, I wish I had gotten the GTO 3R and stuck a roof rack on for the trips across the water..... laugh
