Hi
See http://www.noblecars.com/index2.html
There is a link on the site to a forum with owners discussing the good and bad points. Seems to be very nice. I believe they have just upgraded from the 'wimpy' 2.5 litre twin turbo (300 bhp) to a more respectable 3.0 litre twin turbo. There are now also three variants - one without a roof, one with creature comforts and one stripped out with extra power. Apparently the latter pushes out around 400 bhp now. Unfortunately the costs seemed to have gone up quite a bit too. I think the entry level is now around £50000-00 (previously £45000-00) but dont quote me.
Cheers

The only problem is the waiting list! A friend of mine has another year to wait to get his!
Although I don't think I would mind the wait considering what you get at the end of it

[Homer Simpson mode]Hmmmm Noble 
Love these cars - I would happily sell my Grandmother for one of these (if she was still alive (Sorry Gran)). The sound alone is worth it. Who'd have thought a Mondeo V6 engine could sound so good?
Mole Valley TVR are also a Noble dealer. Bloody miles from Devon, but I'm sure they would be up for a chat

Was lucky to be at Crail in June when Mr Noble was testing (posing) in his own (severely ) tweeked silver car.
I have never HEARD anything like it. Violent and mechanical and JC's Darth Vader impression was spot on
