So I'm working away today and am visited by a customer who notices the humungous lump of NSX engine sitting in the middle of my workshop. We're chatting about it and he mentions that Jim Marshall (the founder of Marshall amplification, who passed away two years ago) was an NSX owner.

His NSX had his personal registration number of "JCM 800" (which is the name of a range of guitar amplifiers that Marshall made in the 1980s).

Just wondering if anyone here has that car or knows of it? (I'm pretty sure the registration number would have stayed with Jim, of course.) FWIW, Marshall was based around the Bletchley/Milton Keynes area.
