Just picked her up from an 18k service and shes running beautifully. Main points for me were :

- Gear change. It was horrible, and I'd not driven another Noble to know whether this was normal. Must admit I found it a huge turn off with the car as it made changing gear a bit of a lottery. The previous owner didn't seem to think it was particularly abnormal for it though (or so he said!). Anyway they found that the bushing in the rear part of the linkage had all fallen appart, and whilst they didn't have the exact noble ones in stock, he popped on a good match from one of their race cars, and its worked a treat. I no longer feel any desire to upgrade to the fabled m400 linkage (at vast expense) as it is now more than good enough. Better than my Elise was!

- Radio reception. I now have some. They fitted an active aerial above the roll bar.


Otherwise a fairly unremarkable service with some inevitable extras needing doing!

Told you the previous owner was dodgy and shouldn't be trusted
