Just got home from the factory...

[V6GTO]

...and I'm very happy about the state of Noble, in light of all the doubts that have have been doing the rounds. There's loads of work going on...mainly a big mezzanine floor going up in the stores, and a nice new facade outside, along with very posh looking signs (I'll add a photo later)

Also had a spy style peek at the ali dash panel for the M15...

Terry (Medusa) saw your car there, and another grey one I didn't recognise.

[V6GTO]

I'd like to see the Noble that badge comes from Martin!

[paulcundy]

I thought they were moving to Brunters?

I want one of those Badges for the Noble section of my garage!

[mr noble]

I too thought they were moving to Bruntingthorpe?

Good news that there is lots of activity there though.

If only I could borrow Harry Potters invisibility cloak again, I could pop in and see what the new car(s) are going to look like!

[V6GTO]

They might very well be moving, but the second unit, which was the workshop, is going to be the stores and nothing else...obviously they see a major expansion in the company

Best of luck to them - they make cracking cars

I was speaking to a chap who saw the new car in the flesh about a week ago.
He wouldn't say anything as he was sworn to keep tight lipped. but when pushed suggested anyone who has a deposit on one will NOT be disappointed.

Adrian has a point. You can easily exceed 455bhp with your current car with minimal expenditure c.f a M15.
I wish Noble well in the future; the M12 is going to be a hard act to follow.

Hello Martin

Sorry to have missed you, you must have been there quite early. Picked mine up at about 12.15 then stopped off for an Olympic breakfast at the Little Chef on the way home, went down very well. I agree the factory is looking pretty good, nice to see there is new investment all round.

The M400 has been doing that for some time. Although probably substantially lighter given the M15 (I'm guessing) has got a few more creature comforts installed. I hope it goes down well because it means Noble might want to get 'back to basics' in a few years and make a revised M12-type car again (i.e. cheaper for the likes of myself!!).

I think it might happen sooner than that
