I've not heard anything that suggests they're unreliable - there's one round here somewhere too...

Nothing too major as long as you discount complete ECU failure on the earlier M12's

Some guy had a problem and took it personally. Reading up on it though it wasn't like Noble didn't offer to resolve more that he didn't give them a chance to fix it within his timescales.

A customer with unrealistic demands on a small company. Now there's a thing
