Automotive design, engineering and development specialist Roush Technologies has been confirmed as an official service and repair partner for British performance car manufacturer Noble.

The company opened a facility at its Brentwood, Essex base in August and is due to open another in Warwick this month.

The appointment completes Noble’s network restructure. Earlier this year it terminated 10 dealer contracts and reduced its number of outlets from 11 to five in a move designed to make the network more manageable and more focused. Roush joins MV Turbos of Carnock, Fife and Vegatune Motorsport in Borehamwood, Herts, as Noble service and repair centres.

The Noble sales network consists of Mole Valley Noble, Chessington, Surrey; Newtown Motors Noble, Cwmbran, Gwent; Kerridges Noble, Ipswich, Suffolk; Noble Automotive, Barwell, Leicestershire; and Christopher Neil Noble, Northwich, Cheshire.

In Europe, Roush Technologies’ activities include a diverse range of work from road going vehicle and component applications to specialist military requirements.

Race and rally engine developer Mountune Racing is also part of Roush and is co-located at its Brentwood facility.

Vehicle engineering manager Dave Jones says: “By calling Roush, Noble customers will now have access to two of the best automotive engineering facilities in the country. We have some of the most experienced factory trained technicians in the business who also, importantly, have a deep understanding of these very special cars.”
