New owner

[mc101]

Hi folks

Just a quick intro as a new owner.

36, Suffolk based, two wheel trackday nut (Mille R Factory) thought I'd better try four wheels at some point. Changed a 03 M3 for a GTO 3R ... bring on Spring :-)

Hopefully catch up with some of you shortly...got lots to learn!

Cheers Mark

Hi Mark,
I'm an ex-biker (SP1) who defected as well. Welcome to the Nobility.

Owen.

Did you buy from Kerridges?

Hi Mark,

Well done, 999r man myself. Have you kept your bike as well??

[mc101]

Oh yes ..... dont think I could give up 2 wheel track time quite yet.

It did indeed come from Kerridges @ Needham Market

Was it the 1700 mile titanium one?

[mc101]

Sjc -- yes ... why - got some bad news for me ?!

Well one day on and other than trying to drive sensibly (very difficult when it sounds this good) it all appears above board.

Taken a very thorough check over it once on the drive way and all appears mint (not even stone chips). A couple off very minor items for the dealer to address but other than that all appears in order :-)

Another dry day outside ... ;-)

Congratulations - have fun with it (although take it easy in the wet the first few times, you have over 300bhp and fat rear tyres and you'll need to programme the brain to what's going on).

Will we see you out at track days?

Mind you, you'll have to put up with a few of us "commenting" on the colour choice There is a heck of a lot of titanium ones out there!

Congrats,
I'm in Suffolk too, occasionally.

[mc101]

Gotta be Ti for me :-) Actually, if possible I wanted an understated colour (does that make sense given the car!!???)

I hope to be on track once or twice a year with it but I doubt I'll be that regular (thats what the bike is for :-) -- cheaper if you break them too!)

Another suffolk Noble owner....

Still haven't passed another Noble on the road yet.

[hunttheshunt]

Great colour if you ask me...but I could be somewhat biased!

[mc101]

Does that mean theres a Suffolk meet on the table folks??
