I have been a very happy owner of a tweaked Chimaera 500 for the last 4 years. Thanks to a certain Mr Humps letting me drive his car recently, my outlook on what was a great car changed immediately.

I have now done what I thought would never happen, and px'd my P&J for a 3R.

So it's goodbye Chimaera forum and hello to you.

... and if your esteemed organiser had checked the events calendar before arranging the date for the Northants Run we could have gone en masse to Goodwood - after all it is Best of British day!

I'm part of the Goodwood run - I'm the rogue TVR that Humps said would be joining. Would have loved to be in the Noble but only collecting it next week.

Humpy's got a lot to answer for...but making you buy a Noble aint one of them laugh

You can now consider yourself true Nobility. Welcome to the best club in town.

Chimaera vs Noble?

The first time I went in a Noble was in Humpys car. He was going down tiny country lanes in the rain with standing water, quicker than I would have dared go in the TVR in the dry.

After having then driven a Noble, getting back into the TVR I realised how much I had trained myself to hold back. I guess what I am trying to say is that the Noble is a much more confidence inspiring car than the TVR.

If you like to blat down country lanes, or go on the track, the Noble can't be bettered IMHO.
