Noble readies M15 supercar
Switch on the Elgar, fly the flag and gawd bless the Queen - it's time for a new British supercar and this one we know will be a belter 'cos it's from Noble.

The Leicester firm's latest model has been crowned the M15 and it's a radical development of the M14 concept shown last year.
The only thing that is carried over from the M14 is the twin-turbo, 3.0-litre V6 engine producing 455bhp.
Even the gearbox is a new six-speeder, because the engine is now mounted in line with the chassis rather than transversely.
Noble is aiming for a £75,000 price for the M15 and is gunning for the likes of the Ferrari F430 and Lamborghini Gallardo, and also Lotus' upcoming Esprit.
