To Be OFFERED AT AUCTION WITHOUT RESERVE at RM Sothebys' Nigel Mansell's Legacy Collection event, 4 - 10/11 OCTOBER 2023. rnOffered Without Reserve | ?5,000 - ?10,000 GBP rnrnPlease note this item cannot be collected in person and must be shipped by our logistics partners, Pack & Send and CARS. rnrn3kgrn380 ? 260 ? 280 mm rnrnIn Nigel Mansell's era of racing, it was not unusual to see a driver carry their own bags. Nor was it unheard of for a driver to make their own way between backstage areas of a track during race weekends. Upon signing for Scuderia Ferrari in 1989, the Italian team offered an olive branch to its new star driver-a paddock bike to take the strain out of Mansell's busy pre-race routine. rnrnThe ST-70 offered here is believed to have been produced in 1987, the final year Williams sported Honda sponsorship. Registered in 1988, Nigel Mansell used this ST-70 from 1988 until 1994. Distinguished from Honda's other minibikes, the ST-series had a pressed steel T-bone frame, bench-style saddle seat, small chunky tyres and folding handlebars. While the ST-50 was powered by a 49 cc single cylinder four-stroke engine, the ST-70 boasted the slightly more powerful 72 cc motor. The gearbox could be a three-speed semi-automatic, or four-speed manual-this example is equipped with the latter option. rnrnFollowing the British driver around the world on the Formula 1 calendar for many years, Mansell gained great use out of the fun-sized Honda, even when later driving for Scuderia Ferrari, before returning to Canon Williams Renault. Period photographs depict Mansell sharing a ride with fellow Ferrari co-driver Alain Prost. After Mansell hung up his racing gloves, the bike went back to Jersey. Here it was still in use but taken off the road in 1994. Mansell's son, Greg, discovered the bike in a shed and decided to have it sympathetically recommissioned as a present to Nigel. rnrnToday this ST-70 presents wonderfully and is an excellent piece of Formula 1 racing history. The odometer reads just 1,582 kilometres at the time of cataloguing.rnrnPlease note this lot has entered the UK on a temporary import bond, which must be cancelled either by exporting the lot outside of the UK on an approved Bill of Lading with supporting customs documentation or by paying the applicable VAT and import duties to have the lot remain in the UK. rnrnTo view this car and others currently consigned to this auction, please visit the RM Sotheby's website.
