[Alf Tupper]

Hello everyone,

Finally took the plunge and bought an NSX, which I'll be picking up on Saturday. Hope it's a dry sunny day for the drive home......

I've always admired the NSX since it came out. I remember reading the car magazines and the huge stir it caused back in 89/90. My favourite memory of that time was the cover of Autoexpress (I think). It had a red/black NSX in profile, dimly lit in a teaser photo (someone here has that photo as their avatar) and the title "wintry smiles from Ferrari". Great stuff.

Surprising enough, having heard about people searching for many months and even years, it didn't take me too long - about 5 weeks. It's a red 95 manual with black roof, UK car, fsh and with 48k on the clock. Classic car insurance with Hagerty Classic was a very reasonable £363, limited to 3000 miles.

Was planning to go to Japfest but realised it clashes with a prior commitment. Ah, well perhaps next year...

Congratulations on your purchase, don't be too down hearted if it's damp, it's just another string the NSX has to it's bow.

Here's to dry weather anyway.
