A rare opportunity has arisen for car enthusiasts and collectors to own a piece of motorsport history. A 1991 Honda NSX, previously owned by the legendary Formula 1 driver Ayrton Senna, is now available for purchase in the UK. With a price tag of £500,000 (approximately $622,000), this NSX is a unique and valuable find.
Senna played a remarkable role in the development of the first-generation NSX, providing feedback to Honda engineers after testing prototypes. As part of their partnership, Honda gifted him several cars, including this red 1991 NSX. The car has been documented in various photos with Senna and was initially sent to Portugal for his personal use.
The current owner, Robert McFagan, acquired the car in 2013 and has proudly displayed it at his estate in East Sussex. With only 39,100 miles on the clock, the car is in excellent condition, featuring a black interior and a vibrant red exterior.
Although the listing doesn’t provide detailed information about the car’s specifications, its historical importance and connection to Senna make it a truly special find.
The car is set to be displayed at the Senna Exhibition in Silverstone in August, and the seller prefers that the new owner collect it after the exhibition closes.
This presents a unique opportunity to take ownership of a piece of racing history, with the added bonus of being able to display it at a prestigious event. For those with the means, this NSX is a rare and valuable collector’s item that is sure to appreciate in value over time.
