I feel the time is right to pass on my cherished early Noble. I would appreciate some advice as to where would be the best place to sell. Via auction or in the classifieds or with a dealer?

The very low volume made, makes any comparison impossible.

Thank you in advance.

Chris.

dealer or auction means someone else is taking a cut..

so, I'd try here first- if you have a firm idea of what you want for it. If not, see what a dealer will offer you, if nothing else it's a guide to it's value.

It's a fairly niche thing, so you're probably talking to a large portion of the potential market right here.


Not sure I've helped much there with any firm advice...!

As you are a Chartered Accountant I'm guessing you're not selling because you need the dosh.
I was in a similar position with my 10 year old, owned from new M12 GTO3,and I sold because
I was just not using it enough. I did not get what I expected for it. Could you not SORN it and wait until somebody actually wants to buy it?

Hi Chris, sorry to hear you're finally letting her go, I enyojed the laps around Silverstone!!
When I saw the Ascari up for sale I thought of your M10.
If it were me selling, I'd do it privately. Posting on here will let 90% of Noble owners know and advertise it in the classic and sports car sections of Top Marques etc will let everyone else know.
Being such a rare car it will only appreciate in value. Good luck with the sale.

Thanks for your replies. I'll bear it all in mind. And if the matter does not become confidential I'll keep you posted.

Cheers.

Chris.

Hi Chris,
Just to let you know that your former M12 is still running beautifully. Just got back from a drive on relatively dry roads, for a change, and still loving it. Good luck selling the M10, and hope you get what it's worth.
Cheers John
