I unfortunately have to sell the NSX as it infuriates my wife, this makes suitable care and attention of the car impossible due to a difference in priorities.

Key question is whether to carry out work needed or to sell at a large discount as is ?
The car is a Silver 1999 3.2 with pop up lights. Just over 100,000 miles.
Work needed is :
Clutch slips slightly before biting. It seems that a seal is weeping onto it, probably the crank seal.
Air con pump was removed when it seized about a year ago and has not been replaced.
The car will need a cam belt service in the next 20,000 miles.
There is a chip in the bottom corner of the windshield but it's stable and has not grown.

Any advice ( I refuse to exchange wife instead due to raising children ) ?

I would be willing to accept £15,500 as is. Quote for all work bar windscreen is £3,700 so quite a bargain. Sorry to be leaving the fold.

Sounds a good deal 99 car for a DIY'er or someone willing to shop around/do home work on parts sourcing from the US etc and negotiate labour only with a competent garage..

Good luck if it has to go....

Sorry to hear that you have to sell!

Looks like a bargain if all the work plus the car comes in under £20K.

Better off getting the work done before selling to get some more money. Bad enough having to sell, without her going for a pitance.
Good luck either way.

IMHO you should at least sort out the windscreen as it will be minimal investment and greatly improve appearance and help the sale.

Good luck with the sale, if you've the time/inclination then small excess equals new glass and few extra ££

Wish I had the spare cash as I'd make this my great daily and ditch the Merc ....
