One of Ayrton Senna’s personal cars, a 1991/1992 Honda NSX Type R, is being sold for an impressive amount!
The sports model, which Senna helped develop while racing for McLaren Honda, has been listed for sale on the British site Auto Trader for USD 622,000. The current owner, Robert McFagan, has owned the car since 2013 and is offering the vehicle, which has only 63,000 km on the clock.
The famous Formula 1 driver received the red NSX as a gift during his time racing for McLaren. However, after the partnership between McLaren and Honda ended in 1992, the automaker requested the car’s return.
The NSX Type R is equipped with a 3.0-liter naturally aspirated V6 engine, capable of producing 273 hp and 29 kgfm of torque, with a five-speed manual transmission. Senna often used the vehicle when visiting his mansion in the Algarve, Portugal.
The current owner, McFagan, is reportedly the second owner of the red NSX, purchasing it during a trip to the Algarve and has since kept it stored on his property in East Sussex, United Kingdom.
The sale of the vehicle occurs on the eve of the 30th anniversary of Senna’s death, which occurred on May 1, 1994, during a race at the Imola circuit in Italy.
