I heard he may or may not have taken a **** right next to this one.

:D

I'm sure there was some reference to a sh**...forget the context though! ;)

Does anyone know how much the Senna car went for yesterday at Race Retro?

If they are fetching good money I may put my 1991 in, its the best one around, red, manual non power steering, UK John Cooper supply, and infinitessimal mileage.

Custard test or Pics required please.....otherwise put it up for what you may want and the right price is if someone is willing to pay for it.
If it has <5k miles then it will be rare but it is still a 1991 model and as you may or may not know...Master Kaz says a car is better when it is run regularly and a non-regularly run car can still have the same issues as a regularly maintained and running car.

Well thats a strange welcome to a new subscriber.
Custard test?

A perfectly reasonable question I'd have thought.
Does anyone know?

Here is my car pic as requested.

Exactly as I said, 1991. Manual. pre-power steering.
Mine since 1993 from John Cooper.
Not under 5K miles, but not over 25K and not an import.

Looks good (although like all early cars, the alloys do it no favours).

Perhaps £35000? Maybe a bit more if it's properly immaculate, if the history is impeccable, if the red hasn't faded (compare the colour in the door shuts to the door colour) and if you put it into one of the very posh auctions.

Auction results now posted.
The car wasn't sold, presumably because it didn't reach the reserve.
TBH I always felt the link with Senna was a bit tenuous anyway - it's not as if he actually owned the car.

Surprise surprise ... Vendor needs to stop smokin bananas

Would love to say I'm disappointed for him...but I'm not. Plenty of (OK, only a few right now) good NSXs out there for half the money...clearly the so-called 'provenance' of this one was found wanting by the market.

I don't see why the price paid for a "Senna car" would prompt anybody to sell theirs. Its unlikely to be worth anymore because its the same spec. I have a Tag watch same as Senna's, But somehow I don't think its worth as much as the one he wore.
