Bloody hell

Anyone know anything about this car? Hope the driver was ok but it seems hard to see how he could have been

will there be any salvageable parts on that??? If it didn't end sat morning i might have tried to pop along to see if anything worth salvaging...

Doesn't look good fro the driver either - anybody know who it was?

IMHO, absolutely no chance for the driver! The driver's side floor is ripped up!

Inspection as to how the chassis and shell held up (or didn't) would be very valuable to the Nobility...

Oh dear.

I dont know about the rest of you guys , but the idea of a bad (side) impact in a Noble does concern me . I've no idea what to do about it (apart from trying not to crash !) but I always a little bit vulnerable when someone does something stupid in front of me , but I suppose you cannot have a car that weighs so little and still have extensive crash structures ....

Have the same concerns - especially at junctions! AFAIR Lotus (only one example) place a safety bar in their doors so why not Noble?!

[m12_nathan]

It'd be banging my head on the roll cage in a side impact that'd concern me. I got some roll bar padding for mine, dunno how much help it would have been though.

looks like another Noble that has been spun into something, you lot may have better eyesight than me but looking at the rest of the car id say the floor damage was done by the salvage people.

With regard to bidding for this car , I cant help feeling that the photo is of the "Good" side ! .....It'd be the other side I'd be more interested in ....

The only way I can see you'd get that damage is hitting a low post side on, as the roof is intact. Still, probably wasn't nice to be involved in.

Trades description!!!!
It says on the description 'Number of doors - 2'

I can only count the one

Yes, me too. Bloody rock hard. Can't see the photo as my company deems it to be dodgy. When was the crash? They keep cropping up....

[AMG Merc]

Rear clam and spoiler look intact - always useful!

[nigelw]

Bloody hell ! ...I didnt scroll down and look at the lower pictures .... not good !

[patmahe]

Was wondering what you were on about until I scrolled down, cant imagine driver made it out in one piece

I thought that just after I posted the link. Maybe someone who knows about those things should take a good look at this one!!!

It also says it's a convertible, well looks like they had a good go at it only they took the bottom off instead of the top!
