    K50 at Norton Way...

    “I find myself irresistibly attracted to cars that nobody else buys. The NSX is a classic of the genre because nobody buys it and yet it’s a fantastic car. It’s got a wonderful compactness and simplicity and unpretentiousness to it. Honda rudely continues to make them whether we like it or not, even though there can be no commercial logic in doing so — I thoroughly admire that.” Rowan Atkinson

    Mine was in Norton Way last Wednesday, along with three others. I only saw K50 (as per Nick's above), which has a blown engine. Poor thing, it has a hard life.

    My parts man at the local Honda dealer told me he looked it up out of interest and a short engine was 25k! Can that be correct?

    Anyway, my wife spotted R7NSX in Baldock, Hertfordshire today. I'm impressed that she actually recognised one! Wasn't there some history with this one?
