Tony Gilbert's are selling this with a full service history.

Thinking of viewing it, they want £25,750.

Instinct: it's worth £22k.

It was an Aberdeen car originally.

Standard car.

R34 GAP?

Does anyone know anything about it, or owned it?

IF it helps, I'm pretty sure this NSX sold about 18months ago via a Scottish Honda dealer ... and quickly, which suggests its probably a clean example.

I would be surprised if they accept your offer. If it were on my forecourt, I would be looking to sell very close to advertised price.

Good luck

Not bad money for 3.2 but very steep for a 3.0 litre.


Cheers,

So, assuming it does have an engine, is £22k too high?

If you want a Green 3.0 Targa then not a bad price if you can get it for that.

One of the less desirable colours and a Targa might affect the price, but if it's what you want.

a few years ago I didn't really like the charlotte green, but recently it has rather grown on me. Probably something to do with Martin's photo shoot - lovely shots of the NSX if ever I saw any

I think the problem with CG is that it looks better against light backgrounds, something of which we don't have much in this country :(

I always think favourite colours vary from person to person.

For example Simon doesn't seem to be a fan of charlotte pearl metallic, but I do, and I found one with greeeeat service history :-)

As for orange, don't even start me :-)

Don't be a sheep...buy a colour you are happy with!

I agree car colours is subjective, true green is not a popular colour unlike reds & silvers, so you may be able to haggle on price a bit, but if its well maintained & has FHSH, then £24,000-£24,500 is nearer the mark? l agree with Paul as these car are rare, so advertised pice at £25,750 is reasonable. Do we know if its a 3.0 or 3.2?

Is it still the original clutch? If it is, you have a bargaining point. Most (I think) cars would have been changed by 62k and it is a ~£2k job.

Pretty sure it's a 3.0

Clutch wise, it all depends on how it's been driven.

Mine felt like it was slipping 10k miles ago but has been fine since, similar mileage, however I think my clutch was changed at 20k miles.

Colour as all have said is a personal thing, I prefer brighter colours on the NSX. But as others say they like the Green or even Black.
