Not that super but spotted in my village earlier while out in the bike
If you were in Oxfordshire when you spotted this then it's probably the same one I saw heading down the Fosse yesterday afternoon...SydneyBridge said:
What has happened to the Nsx on the previous page, one car which should never be altered in any way.
I'm not sure I'd agree with the "in any way" - tech's moved on a long way since it was launched, the chassis and drivetrain can handle a LOT more power, and there's a good few styling/exhaust options which are sympathetic to the original design*.e.g. - a few owners have had the interior dash/door cards retrimmed in alcantara, more than a few have upgraded the ICE from a cassette-deck, there's a number with replica Type-R spoilers (guilty) or Type-R vented bonnets (not guilty), and with side-skirts and lower front air dams (both functional as well as aesthetic). And then there's the suspension, which in OE spec is actually softer than most modern hot-hatches (inc. a MkV GTi on 18"s), the ABS which on NA1s was an early-spec system and not that great, the brakes which are plenty adequate given it's era/provenance but which again would be shown-up by a modern hot-hatch. And so on...the question is whether you have the car as an investment or one you wish to enjoy...and in the most part the Jap car market has been far less bothered by mods than the market for equivalent German**/Italian metal.

I did too, I was walking past you (and another guy?) Not stalking any of you! Also saw Oliver Webb's car and that E-Type, and the 918 and Enzo. Did you see an F50 around Ferrari too? It was in the service centre car park last week. Very nice shots BTW Danny.
Very rare indeed being RHD - ex Sultan of Brunei collection I think and the only RHD F50 to have escaped.

Spotted while in Hong Kong a few weeks ago...
This is an awesome spot. I absolutely love Gumperts and can't remember the last time one was posted on here especially out on the road and not part of Wilton/Goodwood/Random showroom etc.Weirdly ugly yet also totally over-the-top and aggressive looking and all functional I believe.

Is that LFA for sale?
No, I asked And they said it's not for saleApparently frank lampard has tried buying it and hey turned him down
They said if it was for sale it would be over £500k

Looks like replicas, but I don't recognize the white kit. Do you have any other photos?
