Done the deal today :bounce: And I pick my lovely car up hopefully on Friday. I don't think I've felt this excited about a new toy since purchasing the first ever 2nd hand Griff available in Feb 1992! I thought my two seater days were over for a lot longer than 4 years (2 small kids) but thanks to a fantastically understanding supporting wife,the many comments on here (especially the "lifes not a rehearsal" ones)and the hard but good natured and fair negotiating skills of Giles at www.noblelondon.co.uk. backed up with the friendlyness of his staff means I'm like a cat with 2 tails tonight.It's gonna be a long week.

Congratulations!

They are very very special cars, and despite putting mine up for sale, I know I'll buy another in the future.

Bloody good show! I bought my M400 from Giles about 5 weeks ago - he's a super bloke and really really passionate about the cars (despite racing Tuscan's)!

Is it the Red one?

Andy -see from your profile that you're from (or living ) in Essex. Same as. Also bought my M400 from Giles and can confirm that you will get super service from Noble London. He phoned me the other day, wondering why he hadnt heard from me recently - I said I'd bought a Noble not a TVR and he understood completely(!)
Which model did you get? Oh, and welcome to the Nobility - a very special non-exclusive club.

Thanks everyone,Martin are you saying that cats in Spain only have one tail?
Adrian, no it is the larch silver with red/black interior 53 reg 3R, I think the red one is pretty much sold as well.

Must be something in the air today!! I've just done the deal on a cracking Azure Blue 3R which I'm hoping to get my hands on by the weekend. It can't come soon enough!!

Bloody Hell, Hello Mark, didn't know you were on here, hope you're enjoying the Lotus, you'll have to explain how you're fitting 3 car seats in it!
Robp, whereabouts on the roads of Essex am I likely to see your 400?

Well OK but as you may recall young Noble there were only a limited number NVCS (Noble Virtual Ceremonial Swords) ever produced so I'll need Dan's (plus anyone else's who recently divested themselves of an M12 unit) back a.s.a.p. as per the rules of ownership!

Dear Sirs, would it be at all possible to receive my sword with the handle and cover in black/red leather as per my interior?

Wildwilly wouldn't have black/grey leather and be from Kerridges would it? as he mentioned he was sending one up that way for appraisal, if so lovely looking car, congrats.

Oi back off! The car isn't sold yet.

I'm actually having really bad second thoughts now I have to tip in another 30k to get a Porsche and its either going to be slower, or kill me (GT3 vs GT2). It'll also get scratched in carparks, spat on and generally generate resentment.
