1991 Honda NSX

The legendary Honda NSX (standing for New Sportscar Experimental) was developed by the Honda Motor Corporation between 1984 and its eventual launch in 1990, with major chassis and suspension input from three times F1 World Champion, Ayrton Senna.

The NSX featured a state of the art 3.0 litre V6 'VTEC' engine (variable valve timing) and an all aluminium monocoque body, encompassing a revolutionary extruded aluminium alloy frame and suspension. This made the car extremely light and extremely strong. Other game changing features included 4 channel ABS brakes, titanium con rods in the engine and later in the model's life - an electric power steering system. The car was the first real Japanese Supercar, proving itself and quickly establishing respect from its key competitors. Production continued right up until 2009 with only subtle changes made throughout its life.

This particular NSX is an early production right-hand drive car supplied new to Japan, from where it has just returned. The Japanese service history is with the car, and has been translated to confirm services were carried out by Honda main agents at 1388kms, 5277 kms, 11088 kms,14961 kms and at 18,600 kms. Today it has only covered 18,600 kms and had an 8 hour service and full inspection carried out in June 2015 by a UK Honda main agent, so is now ready to enjoy. All NOVA paperwork and UK taxes have been executed and paid and the car will have a UK V5C in time for the Sale, as well as a fresh MOT and 4 new tyres. The original toolkit is present as is a complete service history from Japan, which confirms the mileage is warranted by our vendor.

Being an early car and in the original launch specification, it has no power steering. As such it gives more driver feel, just as Ayrton Senna had originally wanted, and these early specification cars are now highly sought after and very collectable. This low mileage car, looking truly stunning in Black with Cream leather upholstery, represents a chance for some exciting motoring combined with great long term potential investment prospects.
