Hopefully this won't happen to it:

Nice story and true.

A mate of mine collected his new Noble (after five months wait), the 1st car of the new model.

He collected it Thursday, prior to his trip to French / Swiss border, to meet a Ferrari owning friend. Nice christening blat....Wisbech to Zurich, meet ferrari owner, trip up the hills, perfect

Not to be......100 miles out of Calais Noble overheats, head gaskets gone, engine seizes ...... arrives in Zurich in a peugeot 206 diesel courtesy car
