This car is now on Ebay for £19,500; it would interesting to know if it sold at auction and the new owner is looking to make a very fast buck!

Ebay ad says:
Apparently the first owner was Eddie Jordan (this can be verified through the DVLA - if the car is not bought at the current price I will do this myself and add 10k to the price... you may want to do that before I do)

Why not do this before advertising it if so confident! sorry to be b##chy but come on!

I read it as a ploy to create some urgency for any potential buyers watching the car. I am not sure that Eddy Jordan ads 50% to the value of the car but it's a nice story to go with the car

Many of the UK NSX have been owned by 'celebrities', Tara Palmer T, Ian Botham, Elton John, Gordon Murray, etc. best all of us check the previous, could be sitting on a gold mine.

Does anyone really care if a car has been owned by the vapid and banal?

[lotusolly]

At least they have stopped advertising it as a non-existent Jordan model!!

It was lot 223. The auction selling price will be available to see when they update the web site. http://www.historics.co.uk/buying/auction-results.aspx

Different car is it not?

The one that was being advertised as the Jordan car was the yellow JDM coupe with Jordan stickers.

[mersontheperson]

£14,560 plus buyers premium. Not bad for a 'Jordan special' :no:

It's an Auto box?!

Thought you'd be interested Kare, I mean, you haven't got a yellow, auto or targa....would make a nice addition to your collection.

Indeed it's an auto and up for sale already on PH with a £5k mark up. http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3937265.htm. "... full corrosion inspection (no faults found) ... " Must be a good one then ...:rolleyes:

[NSXGB]

Seeing the photo on PH on the cliff top kicked my memory into life, remember seeing that for sale many years ago, possibly on here too. Would have made interesting reading if our archives went back that far...

You got to laugh at the time to prove the Jordan connection the words scape!!! Brian Badonde might have once gotten a ride too Baaah Bwahhh Biddy Buaaa

You are right I think it was on eBay as well. The rear wing does seem an odd shade...

[Sudesh]

I posted the pics of the one on the cliff top ages ago! And to my memory its actually a different car!

[AR]

Wasn't the cliff top one a uk car and the Jordanfake a JDM one?

Correct....

I was looking for a manual NSX but I am actually now considering an auto, although I am not doing too many miles per year 3-4000 it will be my daily driver mostly around town and would not be doing any track days. Also the targa would be nice on those few sunny days, even the yellow pearl is appealing to me.....

[Rdevelopments]

I've bought this NSX, big thanks to Mike at R-motion for going to have a look at it and delivering it to my door. The car is defiantly worth what they where asking especially as the paint is in near mint condition (as is the interior / engine) so well happy with the car. can't wait to get it on dutch plates, and start modifying it (wheels, suspension, brakes exhaust and intake) tips are welcome!

Regards Bas

Well as far as exhaust I will say that the ZD drone is a great one but I would say that.

I have driven an F matic Targa before and it was a pleasure and stress free experience.
