2. Model History

The Honda NSX Was First Showcased To An Eager Global Audience At The 1989 Chicago Auto Show, With This Radical New Japanese Supercar To Offer A Firm Fight To The Already Infamous Italian Competitors And Even Before The Order Books Had Opened, The Likes Of Porsche, Ferrari And Lamborghini Realised That The NSX Was To Set A Brand New Benchmark For Engineering Excellence. The Company`s Founder, Soichiro Honda Had Always Had A Life Long Passion For Motor Racing, Both On Two And Four Wheels, So This Car From Design, Development And Finish, Had To Mirror Those Thoughts And Aspirations From This Industry Great And With The Help From Some Very Important Key Members. The Honda NSX Was Truly A Motoring Masterpiece. The All Aluminium Exterior Body, Which Looks As Staggeringly Beautiful Today, As It Did Back In The Late 1980`s Was Created By A Design Team Under The Watchful Eye Chief Designer Masahito Nakano, With The Total Engineering Brilliance To Come From Chief Factory Engineer Shigeru Uehara, With Those Final Finishing Development Detailing To Come From The Late Great Three Times F1 World Champion Ayrton Senna. The Honda NSX Was The Car That Their Factory Engineers Had Always Wanted To Design, With An Ultra Lightweight Aluminium Structure, Combined With The Power Delivered From The DPHC V6 24V Engine, They Achieved Their Ambitious Targets Of Power To Weight Ratio, An Impressively Quick Top Speed And Yet Still The NSX Overturned Conventional Thinking Of How A True Supercar Should Perform, As This Was The First High Powered Vehicle Aimed At All Drivers, No Matter Their Own Driving Characteristics And Capabilities. Bar Being Effortlessly Quick, The Main Claim To Fame Was That The Honda NSX Was Utterly Satisfying, Yet Never Intimidating And With The Confident Handling, This Was To Be A Fabulous Vehicle That Could Indeed Be Used Every Day. The Final Chapter In The NSX Story Was Written In 2002 When Honda Restyled The Front And Rear Bumpers And Replaced The Retractable Headlamps With More Efficient Bubble Shaped Fixed Units, With These Rare Last Vehicles Being Highly Sort After On The Collectable Classic Circle. These Last Cars Had Been Fitted With A Transversely Mounted Three Point Two Litre V6 Twenty Four Value Engine, Which Produced A More Than Respectable 280 Brake Horse Power, Capable Of Accelerating Both Driver And Passenger From 0-62 MPH In Just 5.7 Seconds And Would Further Climb To Astonishing Top Speed Of 170 MHP, All Of Which Was Perfectly Controlled By The Independent Double Wishbone Coil Springs And Stabiliser.

Chassis Number T200010 Was First Registered By Honda UK In The April Of 2004, With The First Driver To Be Non Other Than The 2009 Formula One British World Champion Jenson Button, Who Had Been Given The Car To Use When He Was In The UK By The Honda Factory. Since This Date Of First Registration Date A Further Three Private Individuals Have Been Fortunate To Take Ownership, With The Last Acquiring This Exceptional Example In The June Of 2013 As Part Of A Private Vehicle Collection. Over The Last Fourteen Years The Car Has Only Had A Mere 27184 Miles Since New, However Regardless Of This Incredible Current Mileage Reading The Vehicle Has Been Maintained To The Highest Of Standards With Historical Past Honda Main Dealer Service Visits Logged At 6054, 8894, 14706, 18473, 21051 (Timing Belt Change), 25601, 26544, 27090 And 27143 Miles, With The Last Completed By Listers Honda Of Solihull In The May Of 2017.
