Following requests in Gad's 'Wheel Refurb.' thread, and to avoid ing that thread up any further, my current avatar is the front page of the Top Gear Magazine (October 2005) NSX buying guide which featured Y1....currently in my (hopefully safe) keeping.

This probably infringes all sorts of copyright laws, but what the hell, for those who might be interested, here is the whole thing:

Can't click to view!

Yes, I know I know it, but I wanted to read it again & look at your car!

Err......sorry Nick..........now without getting too technical, what do I need to do to make the images 'click to view'???

(If you click on them once, and tehn click on the image that displays in my Album that brings up a 'kin' huge picture which I am sure you can save and then scale to make it readable. Hardly 'click to view' I know

Dunno mate, I only speak NA1 & AP1.

Java's something to which I'm slightly addicted.

Is it 'cause it's in your private album, or something?

Much appreciated Ian

Now I just need to be able to read the article properly - are all those arrows pointing to "your" car saying things like:

"Lights on this one are shagged"

"Bits have dropped off here"

"Look what the last owner did here! "

Mind though there are a few errors in that article.

CD in dash has never been available, even the 55 platers have a tape player.

Not sure on the post 1997 F-Matic 3.2 statement either, I think they are still only 3.0's

Yes, you are quite right;

A CD autochanger in the boot & a small-bore engine.

Given that these journos mostly re-cycle press releases, you'd think they'd get the facts right. I've recently noticed more reasoned opinions on fansites than published in the mags!

And that the facelift Targas ARE a lot closer to the Coupes, since they rationalised the spring/damper rates. (I don't care if I start the war again; the coupe IS better!)
