Just like old times
I took my S for a spin last night. First drive in about 6 months. Such a pleasure to have the wind in your hair and certain death under your right foot.

Hi Aus,
I am still here after 14 years. Still driving my AP1 S2000 to work but since I will be 65 next month perhaps no more work? As it is I only go in twice a week.
Apart from that I rarely drive the S any more since my wife and I prefer to drive our new VW Golf Alltrack. The turbo and dual-clutch auto make it a real pleasure to drive, even though the power is down 20% on the S. (I couldn't persuade her to let me get a Golf R wagon instead but if I did that would have 206Kws and 0-100 in 5.0.)
But there is nothing like a nice twilight drive in the S with the top down. I expect to keep the S for many more years.
It is coming up for 245,000kms soon.

My S has been on and off the road recently. ECU failed, fixed that, axle broke, upgraded to DSS 2.9s, coil failed, fixed that, out of rego now (waiting on pink slip).

I missed my original S2k so much I ended up getting another! I had a v35 skyline and a 350z (and drove countless other cars) in the past few years but nothing came close to making me feel the way my s2k did Definitely a long term keeper.
