White is the new black [but remember to keep the mirrors black] and if you can't run to white, just do the mirrors.
Thanks to Hatfield Porsche for the refreshments, the use of their car park, facilities and showroom, thanks to our own elusive member for his organisation; Japfest next?

Small glitch on this thread at post 11 so I decided to post to see if I can bypass it.

I think 13 LM is owned by that nice bloke from London, met him & his Turbo charged NSX at
the classics Silverstone 2009. Went for a spin in it, there was quite a bit of turbo whoosh with the waste gate & it was rather quick!

The car was previously a well documented Mugen special, but now with over 400 or 450 bhp.

Wow James, you should write for Autocar. :)

Paul, I don't think it belongs to ATRgirl, are you getting mixed up with LorNA1?
Whatever happened to LorNA1?

No apology necessary.............and again I'm afraid it isn't mine either as Andy left me behind in Cheshire lol :embarassed:


Oh and the photographs look great from the meet :cool:

As James has pointed out it has been at Siverstone Classic in both 09 and 10, and we also saw it at TDi South at our rolling road day. IIRC the owner (very nice chap) is a member on here and his user name is batman or bat mobile or something like that.

Hi guys, it was a very good meeting, with a good show from the NSX club! It was a little cold, but nice to see a good selection of supercars. Thanks for posting the photos. I tried last night but mine were too big despite compressing them :(

That is the one that used to belong to a Doctor, built by TDI. Current owner posts here and is named Leo IIRC.

Leo also rings a bell with me.

Just noticed in the first batch of pictures posted that the Silver NSX NA2 with the Grey/Black wheels, is this car for sale, there is an identical car to this on Pistonheads at the moment.

Nah the pistonheads one looks like it has darker wheels, orange side repeaters, not lowered, standard spoiler and no vented bonnet. ;)

There is further info about the one on pistonheads on these forums.

Ah right, is it me or does the one on Pistonheads look a bit high at the front?

Hunt out the other thread on that NSX and you'll realise there's of a story to it then looking high at the front ...

Thats the guy, Leo!

I have now found the same car in a 2002 issue of Japanese Performance!

As pointed out, the engine was built by TDI and had a HKS Turbo V6, the then owner tracked it and
it was wearing the infamous NSX1 reg plate. Also it had NSX mugenviper and Derek Morgan Motorsport on
the lower door/sill piece.
