Noble M400 - Need Advice - LotusTalk

benjh1028 · 06-05-2009, 07:32 AM

I would appreciate any advice provided concerning the purchase of a Noble M400. What are the typical problem areas to look for? Any specific things to be avoided? Durability of these cars? Where to get a pre-purchase inspection? Fair price range?

Any and all advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ben

Randy is unavailable right now...he's driving his Q1 across the country.

But yes, he's definitely an authority on the Noble.

Maybe you are looking at his M400 that is for sale?

All I can say is DO IT! I wish I didn't sell my M400, but I was getting paranoid with the abililty to drive safely behind the wheel of one of those. It is immensely quick for a stock car and in the rain it is almost undriveable. I only had the pipe come loose from the power steering tank and that was the only problem that I ever had after 2 years and 8000 miles. Cheap to maintain as it's mostly Ford parts.
