I took this picture myself on my phone-camera, just showing the chaps setting up the car for the photoshoot.

Martin, that's fantastic.

Is it Charlotte Green? Hope so as mine is so those pics would be a real keeper for me too!

Nice one mate

I hope you got more than I got from EVO when they used my car for a shoot last year!

I wish magazines would stop inferring you can pick up NSX's for £15k - yes, there may be a handful on ebay & the like for that money but there's normally a damn good reason (LHD, auto, v high mileage or the like....). £20k is to my mind the correct entry point for NSX ownership... still, no need to let the truth get in the way of an eyecatching headline!

I totally agree - it really doesn't help the value of any of our cars at all. Maybe each time they run an article like this we should send the editors an email each making the point clearer!!!

Agreed, I got mine for around the £15k mark but it does have 88k miles. However I always intended to do little custom additions to an NSX and therefore it should affect the resale as much as a £25k minter!

just reading it now...

pmsl @ Martin's nonchalant 'hands-in-pockets leaning against the car' pose

priceless mate - looking very dapper, and I swear they've shaved a couple of stone off since I last saw you :D

Especially when the £15k price tag is next to a picture of my car :(

Hadn't seen the sleeve for the magazine as my subscription copy came without it :'(

Yes, that would have annoyed me too Simon if they had a picture of my car with 15k stamped beside it, but at least in the 2 page article they make no reference whatsoever to 15k. They had a 'what we found' 96 reg @ 30k.

Funny Darren, but what does pmsl mean? It was too cold to drape myself across the bonnet in my hot pants!

Only kidding by the way...ahem...

Martin,

Must admit I have to agree with Darren.....you look so slim! :shock: time for another pub lunch?

Cheers

Just got this magazine; really nice supplement and a credit to your car and the NSX in general.

Well done mate.
