Hi I new to the NXSOC have to say great site, informative and interesting. I never knew there were so many people interested in this great car.
Anyway just bought the car of my dreams....a late 95 Yellow 3.0 T manual. Wanted this car for around 10 years, been searching properly for approx 2 years. As I am not really mechanically minded, I needed to find one that was in VGC that needed little work for around 20K.
Can you believe, I came out of work last week to go to the post office, came to the T junction and there it was, going past, my yellow NSX, so I quickly decided to follow said car, 2 miles later it came to a halt outside a paint shop and a Guy got out who is 73 years old!!!
Had a chat and found that he lives 1.5 miles from me!!! He was looking at selling due to poor health, had the car 5 years, been treated with tender care, no wet weather etc... Has all Honda service history from day 1, done 56,000, new clutch fitted 2000mls ago, Clean as a whistle, just had its 56,000 service with no problems.
We agreed a price of £24000 including Reg N30 NSX on Satuday morning.
I probably paid top money, but I reckoned I could have spent upto £1000 trying to find one. I had gone around £3000 over my budget, but I could just manage it.
Saturday night I won £3003 on the lottery (5 numbers)
I am collecting the car Friday so watch this space........
The moral is I suppose, you never know whats round the corner!!!
