I'm interested to hear experiences from anyone who uses their Noble as daily transport.

I do and it's a joy

Seems very sure-footed in the wet and never fails to bring a smile to my face.

For trips to Sainsbury's i can get a weeks shopping in the passenger footwell. You can get a weeks holiday gear in the 6 Noble luggage bags - well unless you let the Mrs pack

It won't cut it for trips to B&Q or the garden center, but then you wouldn't expect it to !

Hey Stuh,

Saw you out in the pouring rain on Friday evening (coming through Harlington).
Must admit, it's nice to see cars like the Noble being used everyday!

Cheers

Igg

PS. If you are ever near Clifton/Shefford - fancy popping in for a cuppa and give my 3 boys the opportunity to see your car? - well, OK, it's mostly me who wants to see it!

Hi Igg

I've finally gotten my confience in the car in the wet. The previous cars (M3 and Chimaera) were dreadful so the M12 has been a real eye opener - not all rear wheel drive cars have to be lethal ! I spent most of Sunday hooning around the area

My old man lives in Stotfold so i'm sure i can pop in one day to visit a petrolhead. Send me your address offline and we'll sort something out - marthouse@hotmail.com

Tesco/Sainsbury/Marks&Sparks trips can be done with the wife in the car as well! Normally fit one or two bags behind each seat and then a couple more on the 'parcel shelf' and one more bag goes in the passenger footwell. Loads of room! Drive the car about once a week and it has not posed any problems at all.
