Please tell me autoglass will say, yes of course we can fit one tomorrow..........
Nope. Factory only.
Chip or a fully blown crack? I've had two 'holes' filled on mine and they're almost invisable. If the 'hole' can be covered with a 5 pence then it's not an issue. They 'may' do a bigger one.....

Thanks Phil,
Sadly, full blown, might just cover it with a five pound note
This will be a good test of my insurers free windscreen replacement then. Am assuming factory is shut till Jan 3 or 4th?

My car had one done a few months back. Unfortunately took ages for it to come in. Factory or a dealer will be able to help, but otherwise I don't think you'll get very far. If you are lucky they'll have some stock of them so there won't be any delay.
Mmmm Dealers?? That might be an option, but then again, don't know of any official ones in the North apart from one in Cheshire, who I vowed never to visit again before I even bought a Noble.
Does anyone know if Gordon Lamb is still an official dealer?

Hexham Horless Carraiges may be the nearest going by the officical noble site? Or Peter Smith if you are more southerly.
Had mine do 2 months ago by autoglass, who sourced it from the factory, it did take 3 or 4 weeks though, I spoke to the factory and i know they were getting a new supplier in the uk rather than having to get them shipped from SA. Autoglaas did a very good job of fitting and dealt diret with my insurance co. hope that helps.

Help!
Has anyone had a windscreen replaced? I'm assuming that it will only be available from the factory? If so, argh! MOT coming up soon DOH DOH DOH DOH DOH

I was told it was the same one as for a Lotus - not sure which model. Fortunately haven't had to find out yet...

Lotus Elan - however noble have their own ones made these days - the lotus one has different tinting and looks rather odd when fitted to a Noble.
- The major glass fitters can do nobles - but make sure they use the correct noble glass and they do it properly - mine had to be re-done once after they did not re-fit the trim very well.
