no, I traded the elise in for the Noble, to be fair Nick Whale did me an exceelent deal, they gave me about £1500 less than I paid for it 5 months and 3500 miles ago.
Initial observations are the car is awesomely quick (well we knew it was didnt we?)and the steering is exceptionally precise. The ride is smooth, the car feels more planted than the elise did. I noticed today in the damp conditons I was getting more grip than the elise on for example roundabouts.
Petrol consumption seemed to be rather high, I was told it was full when I picked it up but after 110 miles I needed a refuel, it took 30 litres. Just how full it had been I dont know. Ill keep a record and inform as time goes by.
Lots of gleeful looks and thumbs up from pedestrians. Just took my daughter to a birthday party in it.. all these 12 year olds were swarming round it with huge grins!
Only three niggles.. passenger window rattles (should be a simple fix) , its a squeese to get the passenger side luggage case behind the seat if its full (and also my wife is a bit short of legroom) and the seat profiles will be fine when |I have my helmet on but for normal driving I would have liked some kind of headrest. Very comfy seats tho.
Off out now to rev it up and annoy the neighbours!!
