Description

The team at Hilton & Moss are excited to bring this stunning example of a now rare, hand-built British sportscar to the market.

First released at the turn of the millennium, the Noble M12 GTO was the first true sportscars to be launched by Noble Automotive after the short-lived M10. With production taking place between 2000 and 2008, the M12 was available in a number of variants over the years, all utilising the twin-turbo Ford Duratec V6 powerplant in either 2.5, 3.0 or 3.5 litre form.

This particular version is the M12 GTO-3R, with the 3.0 litre engine, which sees 352bhp from the 3.0 litre V6 as standard. A pair of Garrett T25 turbos and a curb weight of 1,080kg allows the Noble to accelerate from 0-60mph in just 3.7 seconds.

Built in December 2003, this 3R was finished in Honda Longbeach Blue – by special request of the first owner, to match another vehicle in his collection – with the interior featuring blue Willans harnesses over two-tone blue/black Alcantara seats, door cards and dash trim. The standard seat belts are also retained.

Having had 5 caring previous keepers in its 21-year life and covering just 28,500 miles, this Noble has benefited from a no-expense-spared attitude in recent ownership, with an ultimate focus on reliability and usability. A number of modifications have been made to vastly improve the car. Some of the most notable are listed below:

• 6 speed gearbox with Quaife ATB (Factory install from new)
• Track Day Sump (Factory install from new)
• M400 Gear Linkage (Factory install from new)
• All-corner air-cup lift kit, installed over updated Faulkner springs with a 30mm drop in ride height and refurbished shocks
• Trevor Jasper remap – Making 410bhp and 420lbft
• 6 paddle clutch with uprated cover
• Lightened and balanced flywheel
• Alunox exhaust manifolds
• Roush exhaust system with ceramic coated downpipes and race cats
• Speedline wheels with custom centre caps
• NobleMods rear light clusters
• PPF installed on front clam and side skirts

With an extensive history file, the car has just been serviced, detailed and thoroughly checked over by our experienced Hilton & Moss team – specialist for Noble cars – and the car will be supplied with a fresh MOT as well as a 12-month warranty for additional peace of mind. The car will also be supplied on its original registration from new - GT03 BLU.

A full list of works carried out to the car is available upon request and viewings are welcomed at our Bishops Stortford showroom.
