Default 700bhp noble gto

Put a windscreen in a Noble GTO its the only one in the world that was specially ordered in kingfisher blue, The boy took me out in it says it weighs less than 1000kg and with a custom exhaust a remap and other bits and bobs was rollin roaded just under 700bhp the thing was an animal thought he was just gona take me along the road and back then he said think you should put your harness on and turned off for the back roads.

Once i was strapped in he nailed it around a small bend and the thing came out the bend sideways then spinning up threw 3rd he sayed it never had abs or traction control just before he was hard on the anchors for a sharp bend the thing was a beast, Hes had it on the nurburgring sayed there wasnt anything touchin he also sayed he had it up the qaurted racing an r1 and the bike just got over the line before him. Wouldnt mind havin a shot around knocky in it defo put a smile on my face

never got a pic

just thought id share that with yous, anyone else been in one thats been fucked about with?

Camped opposite this one at le mans last week which was tweaked to 520 hp with dymag carbon wheels (Ł8k ) and a number of other tweaks which the owner said was circa 1100kg with him in the car. Didn't get a go but I imagine it was nippy. Chap owns a MR2 tuning place up north somewhere and had done it himself with forged bottom end etc. Also sorted wiring etc, nicely modded car.

Black plates on it?
If so I know him and he lives down the road from me.

Had a purple prelude years ago and used to slip the clutch then come back and say "did you hear it spinning in 4th"
Claimed that thing was running twin JCB turbos

I think space would be a major issue under the bonnet of a V6 mk2 mondeo. There's bearly enough space to replace normal service items let alone bolt in a couple of extra turbos and associated pipework..
