I'll be in the UK for vacation

[MCano]

I will be in the Glasgow area (Dumbarton) between Dec 28 and Jan 3, and in the Birmingham and London areas between Jan 04 and Jan 10. I'll keep a lookout for NSX's while I'm in the area.

I updated my original post. Sorry, I forgot that the month and day are reversed in other parts of the world. I do not yet have the address in Birmingham where I will be staying (wife's relative). We will choose a hotel in London when we arrive in Birmingham. I'll try and make updates while on the road.

Well, I'm here in Dumbarton, and the weather is not NSX friendly. I doubt I'll see one until I get to London.

If there are any nsx owners in the Galsgow area? I would love to meet you!!!! Otherwise, my next stop is Birmingham then London.

Hi MCano,

You should find the weather becoming friendlier as you move south. Be sure to let us know where and when and someone may well be close to you for a coffee break ...

Safe travelling and Happy New Year

Regards, Paul

I'm in Glasgow but the cars off the road and wrapped up for winter

[MCano]

yes, I figured all Scotland NSX's have been put away for the winter. When I get to Burmingham, I'll post my location.

Aye, there's a few of us not a million miles away. I'm in Stratford upon Avon, if you find yourself out this way...

[MCano]

Next stop is Birmingham. From there we will make day trips to surrounding areas, possibly to Stratford-upon-Avon. When we move on to London, we will be staying at a Holiday Inn near Heathrow. We will make day trips to London and other surrounding areas. I'll update when possible.

Just seen this Mario - only just back from work. Gonna struggle tonight and tomorrow morning (have a delivery arriving tomorrow, need to stay in), sadly.

Tonight, if you're eating out in town (possibly not given you've said you're in town until 4pm) I can recommend a fair few places:-
- Grants (Sheep St)
- Lambs (Sheet St)
- The Oppo (Sheep St)
...are all good generalist 'bistros' - Grants is close to fine-dining, all 3 do good 'European' food.

- Fuji is a decent-but-pricey Japanese - service is variable but food is usually good
- Thai Kingdom and Thai Boathouse are two very decent Thai places - TK on 'the gyratory' at the top of town near the river, TB is just across the stone bridge on the south-east side of the river.

Have fun regardless, and I'll be checking my e-mails on-and-off tonight - mail me if you've any questions.

Cheers,

Martin.

Thanks for the info Martin, and sorry we missed you. We ended up not having dinner in Stratford, but had a nice time taking in the sites. We did have some drinks at the Dirty Duck.

Although we traveled all over Birmingham and London site seeing, we did not see a single NSX. Although I was disappointed, I knew that the odds were not in my favor to see one.

Again thanks for the dinning recommendations.

I live here and have only seen a handful on the roads....ever (obviously meets not included). Odds are definitely stacked against you....

Yeah other than one local to me that used to be used frequently I don't think I've ever seen one moving. Excluding meets and shows of course. I've seen 3 or 4 parked and that's probably about it. Although I do live in the south west of England.

350-400 nsxs 'on the road'? Probably 10% or less being daily drivers and the rest hidden away for most of the year!
