My CX still has the magic carpet ride though, especially since I replaced the front "spheres" (sort of equivelent to dampers) and "accumulator" (of main hydralic pressure). Dead easy as well, took alll of 20 mins :-)

Graham, yes mine is a late model Series 1 with the rotating drum intrumants, here are a couple of pics...

My dad had two of these, I love the funky interior (also the GSA he had before where they swapped the stereo and handbrake location for no reason and had a globe ashtray).
But not at all keen on the sloshy ride :heave:

Mark,

My dad specialised in CX sales for about 10 years (then XM now C5/6) so I have driven my fair share when I was younger working for him in the holidays.

Love that CX Turbo 2:D

Hate that LHM fluid:eek:

Enjoy it!

Steve,

There must be nother NSX in Basing, I have my standard exhaust on so it is very quiet:laugh:

I've only ever seen another and that was a replica worth about 30k I think:eek:

The RS200 must have been worth a fair whack as well - it had the big spot lights on the front and all!

I was driving back from an aborted meeting with a customer, generally feeling a little antagonistic. Stopped at some traffic light, pulled away and kept it in second until I'd ascertained which direction the camera was pointing opened it up a bit. just as I put my foot down I noticed a Red/black NSX with early four spoke wheels on the opposite carriageway sat in traffic. So who was in Taunton today??

Cheers,

James.
