Saw an H reg red NSX in Sevenoaks today, with big wheels :) They really are common as muck!
Goldy orangey one N5 XSR on Upper Chobham Road just outside Frimley on Saturday (26/05). Also saw a red one at the Nurburgring last week. And an Alfa 8C Competizione and two Audi R8s, but that's another story!
I think the IOP is Marc's Type S, cracking car! The red at the ring is probably Detlef of Procar as he's been there for the last few days trying out his facelifted R project car.Quote:

Yeah that was me (N5 XSR) :)
I was forced to use the NSX as the day car (540i Touring) burst it's radiator last week. In fact I was out picking up some Anti freeze ahead of fitting the new radiator. Done now so the NSX doesn't have to venture out in this miserable weather.

One of the R8s was with a group doing training on a day closed to the public - I'm not sure if it was a trainee driving though, as it zipped away from the group in the opposite direction as if it was a staff car ... and when it did, it sounded like this! Recording of R8 disappearingQuote:

The other R8 was parked outside the Skyline hotel in Riga - I got about a bit last week!
REd NSX spotted in Basingstoke, wasn't me, wasn't Paul, Steve likes his Astra too much to take his out any more...
Red - number plate summin like BB 208
Who dares?
Silver pop up *** 2222 spotted in Bourne this afternoon. Anyone here?
Silver / Black pop-up going the oposite way to me and I was in the X for once...such an stupidly exciting moment when you spot another in the wild!
Gumball's NSX?

My passenger had her cameraphone handy so I done the decent thing and pulled up close by. :cool:
Yes mine, just come back from "spotting" these, I see your 40 nsxs and raise you 45 F40s;), did'nt see another nsx all day though,
Now that is some car collection. :)
Red auto with 91-94 wheels NSX plate (1Y?). Beautiful condition, apparently with car club rally (lots of Caterams and a Ford GT40) at Standen (East Grinstead) National Trust house. I wished I'd gone there in my NSX instead of my wife's BMW.
Ah! Interesting!!!
I live in West Hoathly (only about 3 miles from Standen) and driving back into the village along our very insignificant 'B' road on Sunday I was met by waves of old TVR's, Caterhams, newish MGF's and Cobra's - a slightly eclectic collection of cars, and whilst I could read their London-Brighton stickers, I did wonder a/ what on earth they were doing running through West Hoathly and b/ who the organising body/club was????

I raise your NSX count to 43 quoted for the Japfest ... and knock you 1 F40 to 44 as the one at the back is a 355 :laugh:Quote:

Sounds interesting, any photos ??

Passing your location again today (my good lady has a relative in Windemere Rd) and I am afraid the blue cover disguises the natural beauty of the NSX. :laugh::laugh:Quote:

Such a nice car should be seen though.
...As an NSX owner, have any of you ever felt like you're being stalked?
