Many of us have tried many times, perhaps try the search facility.

If anyone knows someone at DVLA that would help, for the UK at least.

Info I gleaned from when searching for my car - this maybe but most probably is not accurate.

GTO 2.5 92 units
GTO 3.0 116 units
GTO 3R 165 units
M400 75 units

In addition 240 3Rs and M400s sent to the states.

This suggests 688 units in total, excluding Rossions.

I have 3R0109 smile

Daisy Duke is the Oracle. I think it's UK, but only based on what I remember reading here.

The 3r and the m400 all had a R in the build numbers and numbers were mixed up

I haven't seen many 3Rs beyond a 54 plate.
Is that when the M400 was introduced, and did the factory push that in preference to the 3's?
It seems as though all 2005 and 2006 examples that I have seen are M400s, though I'm sure there must be exceptions.
Confusing if M400s use 3R in the chassis number. I assumed that mine was no. 109 out of 165 3Rs built, but maybe that's not true..

FYI, this is what Daisy Duke (Helen), unpaid keeper of the unofficial Noble register, kindly posted previously...

NOBLES
M12
273 produced
232 In Census
24 Have A Write-Off Cat
Others (May include M12's as there are 142 Unspecified)
187 produced
146 In Census
6 Have A Write-Off Cat
A lot are unspecified as low volume marques are not very well coded.

I was moving house earlier this week and found the original set of number plates (Peter Smith Sportscars) for FJ05KJY!! That's my old 3R!!

Anyone know where it is now? I traded it in the summer of 2006 for my M400, which I still own.

Look how much better a small number plate and single wiper make the front. And yet the Noble badge is better placed on the 05 car.

A few years ago, my '05 3R seemed to be one of the very last 3R's, and that is R196.

On a different note. This photo is amazing.
