Up for sale hey........ Will go and check the piggy bank. Mates rates? ;)

Oh and first refusal if you sell? :)

You're welcome. Glad to see it looking so mint still. Good job bud. :)

If the S2000 disappears in time I'm fairly determined to make this car a NW resident. :)

So what age of S2000 did you get quoted on out of interest. I'm genuinely interested to know as I've had no insurance shocks when looking for prices on mine so interested if the insurance companies view the earlier ones differently in terms of risk?

You see I can't understand that. I'm 31 and my S2000 costs no more to insure than my R26 did. I don't know if insurance companies view the pre and post facelift cars differently in terms of risk but my experience is that the rumours about S2000 insurance aren't actually true, going off what I...

In a vague attempt to keep this updated I've started fettling. Nothing major and just really and attempt to get the car upto the right standard before I do anything else. First ups, DC5 gearknob to replace the grim looking OEM one. Then secondly I did a bit of a refurb job on the centre...

Looks tidy just on the coilovers. Yellow wheels do not want though, sorry! I'm loving mine so far. Just a bonkers thing to have fully strung out on a decent road. Can't understand the comments abvout the insurance being high. Mine costs me exactly the same as my R26 did, although that was...

Very kind guys. I'm currently away skiing so can't wait to get home and start fettling. :)

Cheers. Parked in the garage now till the gritters bugger off.

Gotcha. Will check out the compartment. Boot isn't half bad for that sort of car. Plenty for a weekend away. Torque is indeed flat compared to forced induction but its certainly torquier than I expected and its not really its party trick anyway. Perfectly acceptable for general pottering about. :)

All the UK cars are AP1s dude. :) The confusion of AP2s seems to anger a lot of people on S2Ki! We just have pre and post facelift with relative chassis and visual tweaks that brings. AP2 2.2 was only for North America. Mines all 9000rpm worth of goodness. :) Secret compartment? Do tell.....

Better getting yourself on S2Ki and getting a passenger ride with a forum owner i your area. The only problem with test drives is you might not get chance to fully experience that engine properly wrung out. :)

About £3k. £4k will get you a supercharger or turbo kit to 400bhp................ALERT!

That's the only thing that lets the car down as the previous owner obviously wore a ring and the top of the gear knob is a bit tarnished. It'll be getting a fresh one but open to options of something that looks vaguely OEM. :)
