Don't know why but I've grown really fond of all those nice English sportscars. And this

Graham Bell drove the car and wrote a nice comprehensive review:

I hate these cars :x

They look shite, go shite and are built shite :wink:

No really, i hate marcos's because they don't look very special, and for a sports car the performance is average. PS... nobody knows what they are.. a TVR or Lotus would do the trick a million times better than this second rate car...

BTW - i think they used to cost £60k, that means a Noble M12 GTO 3R :twisted:

Sounds pretty nice but I would rather have an M12 GTO. At first
I didn't like the styling but slowly but surely it is growing on me in
much the same way that all the Bangle BMW designs have done.
I don't like the way they put all the instruments on the center console,
every car I have driven with a setup like that has been hard to get
used to(where you're looking is where you're headed :twisted: ).
