Nobles for sale

[steve1]

Apart from the ones in the classified section and good old autotrader, are there any more that i don't know about, or possibly anyone that is on the verge of selling their 3R.

Steve.

Might still be a titanium 3R for sale at Noble London (aka TVR Centre) in Barnet.

I keep thinking about selling but the number would start with a 4 not a 3. Still, it's not the most standard car around

Steve1, if i was you i'd see if i could buy Phil's car as it is well looked after and has had all the mods your ever gonna need (and done properly, i.e it won't go bang like some of the modded car are likely to sooner of later)!

[steve1]

Phil,
I think you'd better send me some details.

[e-mail]

Thanx,

Steve.

Kerridges have a lovely 3R at the mo with a Noble Motorsport upgrade.

Stage 3 is.. cam upgrade,filters moved forwards to bulkhead, uprated intercooler,re-map 400 bhp

GT28's after that gives 425 bhp
Exhaust after that gives around 480 bhp

So that's a John Noble upgrade rather than a Noble one then? Just wish I had some spare cash...

Why would anyone want to move the filters forward....other than for the obvious sound improvement?

[steve1]

Stop hijacking my thread.

My M400 may be for sale, fully modded, properly.

Needs a re-spray on the front clam.

I can't answer that one but maybe the filters get better airflow there, and less distance for the air to travel.The 2.5's were sited there also.

More like cooler air from the clam venting.

The air flow is actualy better where the IC is, plus the pipe length is 6 and two 3's as there is 1 long one and 1 short one in either position! Best way to do it would be to have the O/S filter at the back nearest the turbo and the N/S filter at the front near the other turbo!

That's what JNM mentioned when I asked them about their reasoning.

Got mine from there. No quibbles when the alternator packed in soon after purchase and (apart from me draining the battery ) it has been ultra-reliable since.

[sjc]

Got my first Noble from them, top guys. NobleLondon and Kerridges (several times) have both given me excellent buying experiences.
