Well its a sad day today. After more than 6 years of ownership I've sold the Nob. Going down to Jetstream on Friday to fix a couple of things and check him over before he's picked up by his new owner.

Rob I'll get the sword in the post ! ( bet not many remember them)

Daisy, I'll let you have the details of the new owner over the weekend so you can update the register and be ready to accept him on Nobleparts

Guys, its been a hoot owning the car and the experience has been enhanced greatly by you lot, many of whom are now good friends.



I'll keep popping in to see what your all up to and ensure your playing nicely.

Sad day Paul - but you'll soon get fed up with people giving you the finger, rather than a friendly wave!
You'll be pleased to hear that I've still got my sword!

Never say never but there are lots of toys out there to play with. I've never owned a car for as long as I've had the Noble and I doubt I'll own another car for so long.

Still enjoying the Porker but in a couple of years time who knows, maybe M600's will have depreciated enough for me to justify buying one biggrin

I've started looking at classic British sports cars to add to the fleet but I'm not really cut out for all that waxing and polishing and I'm not sure viper stripes would suit a Healey.

Actually that looks nice but I need something with a bit more punch than a frogeye. Either a 100/6 or a 3000. Really fancy red over cream but this would do at a pinch.

yum

Well he's gone smile

Spent a full day with Dave & Matt at Jetstream sorting out a couple of minor issues and then trying to find why there was a cough at low boost. Dave did a great job changed virtually everything plugs,coil,ht leads, map,ecu,checked fuel pump and filter and eventually after changing all the injectors job sorted.

Or so we thought.

Front lambda sensor then went awol so changed that but no luck, changed again still no luck. Dave then rewired the cable from the ecu to the lambda and job done.

Got to say it was running as well as it ever has. I already realise it was a mistake .

Big thanks again to Dave for his tireless efforts and Matt for making the
tea biggrin


Hopefully Andy will be along to introduce himself shortly.
