It's been months (yes months) since I had the old girl out of the garage, and when I finally arrived home today I decided to blow some of the cobwebs off.

She started first time, with only a slight puff idled and just sat there, burbling.

Let her go through a complete heat cycle and no leaks, so off we went....

It still makes me catch my breath when you unleash a Noble, it just jumps down the road. I had to fill up on the way back, and I'd forgotten just how much attention this car gets, three people came up to ask about the car !

It's still going 'ting ting ting' outside..... and the sidewalls are looking a bit more scuffed - sweet :-)

Anyhoooo, has anybody had a look at the artega GT ? Saw some nice pictures of it in EVO this month ?

Hi Jools - long time no hear. Glad you're still enjoying the ol' gal. How's the new project going?

Hi Rob !

It looks a bit like it's had a plate of spaghetti thrown over it just now. Wires an pipes all over the place !

Come and see us at the Britcar 24, a week on Saturday. I know, we are mad.

It is about time we had a night out with the old crowd. Been far too long.

That Artega GT looks Fezza 360 / AM Vantage at the front and a bit M15 at the rear, though a bit thick at the hips,not a bad effort IMO

I agree!

I'll be there all weekend, I'm going to give my new tent a workout. It's going to be my "Le Mans substitute" biggrin
