Default NOBLE Gone....

Well the Noble is sold now as to be honest it was an absolute piece of shit!

Bit of a dilemma now as the car needs to be replaced as I no longer have the BMW cabriolet either, I’ve been offered an overfinch range rover supersport TDV8 HSE, with awesome spec, and the car apart from looking a bit pimpish is absolutely stunning.

331bhp, everything colour coded, sat on its arse, quad exhausts, 8000 miles, 22" Tiger Alloy Wheels with Centers Painted Matt Black.

Just wish it wasn’t an oil burner, what does everyone think??

All dealers being forced to close and then having to apply to reopen even if it was a good branch. Constant faults what do you expect with a ford engine being in it lol! No customer service at all!!! also about a luxurious as a turd with hair on (not the cars fault I knew that when I bought it)

Your car list has always looked the bollocks, don't destroy it with a fat, overpriced piece of fashion statement like a Range Rover!!

Suprised by the Noble, always heard they were very good.

Overfinch Range Rover - the most pointless car in the world (after the Cayenne Turbo of course)

Either get a decent diesel one and be happy, or get a car.

All above IMHO of course

Is there such a thing as a decent Range Rover? I know when I was looking at them it seemed the list of problems and faults was longer than anything I've known (which owning RS's was pretty long )

If its space/carrying capacity how about a Audi RS something estate. Why not wait for the next gen one with the 570BHP+ Twin Turbo V10

BTW. You must earn even more money than Porkie!

Its not really anything to do with its carrying capacity mate. It's just the Noble had to go and this has come up. I'm going to borrow it for a couple of days and see what I think!
