[quote=immoral giant]no the noble wasnt there on the saturday.
there was a sign on the floor that said "Sorry had to take the Noble out for the day, The Stig"
Had to fight my way through people to get those pics of the rapide.
[/quote]
Yeh that same sign was there when I went...but it was genuinely taken by Top Gear, not just there for the sake of it. I saw other pics of the M15 being there at the beginning of the week, and if you look carefully, the registration matches up to the one that went round the Top Gear track.

[QUOTE=carbrochuretom]I just realised I never got any Azure shots:eek: I will try and get the rest of my pics up tomoz, when I have more time...I managed to sit in the TVR Tuscan, the blue one that was at the back on the TVR stand. rather nice! but one hell of a bugger to get in and out of when you are 6ft 4 and are meatier than Clarkson. I also sat in the new Corsa, it felt quite comfortable...too bad I got the Swift...mwahahaha...BRERA just felt like a lil monster eager to hit the road, despite it not moving or having the engine running...I just got the feeling when I got in, the tightness gave the impression of a rocket...I LIKE IT.:D[/QUOTE]
Me too, I love the way you open the Tuscan's door from the inside!
I sat in the Azure too. And I got locked in the boot :D

That's because it's the only M15 in existence. ;)
I was a tad suprised that they let Top Gear loose on the car because a) obviously if they stack it it's the one and only car in existence and is used as a development and testing car. They's be screwed without it, and b) it's by no means the finished article by all accounts. Apparently it still doesn't have the ABS, traction and stability controls that Noble is developing for the car.
Still, it got rave reviews by TG so I guess it's done its job of helping to fill the order book for the next year or two.

Well, here come my 553 Photos from Monday 24th July!
Sorry but I only have a 2 megapixel phone...
The New Ford S-Max. Why Ford would want a people carrier (likely to be carrying kids) to sound like a piece of bondage gear, I do not know...

The front of the Vanquish S is the nicest of the current range IMO, but I like the rear of the DB-9
