Three Noble's stolen from Factory

http://www.noblecars.com/new-noble-site/news-8.htm

A couple nights ago Noble had three of there model cars taken from their Leicestershire headquarter. The theifs managed to take two M400s, Nobles newest line of supercars which start at $110,000 fully assembled, and one M12 GTO. which starts at around $90,000.

One of the M400's was the press demonstrator, tested in Top Gear plates are "M400 GTO", and the other was ready to be shipped to a dealer, which didn't have a plate.

The robbers are going to have a really hard time keeping these under raps, you don't see them that often, unless you live near the factory.

I believe one of the robbers couldn't control the car, it went into a ditch, where police found it. The others had gotten away.

Yes I am sure.........because when I stole it from the factory it was the first thing I took off, that way they would have no idea it was the same car. :tongue: :biggrin:
 
It seems pretty stupid to steal these cars, what would you do with them? You can't part them out, you can't sell them complete. I guess you could use the engine in something else, but that hardly seems worth the effort.

They are beautiful cars though!
 
most likely........that's gotta be the work of someone on the inside...perhaps, an employee...
 
in the UK cars are often stolen to order and then shipped abroad.
just as an example,they drive on the left hand side of the road in Cyprus,and thats quite a few miles away from the UK,so relatively safe(criminally speaking :wink: )
 
yeah i would think if it ends up as the police chief's personal car in mexico city, there's not much the Noble factory can do about it..
