I have been lurking around the forum for a while now and though it was time to introduce myself

Bought my 53 plate facelift back in November last year but due to complications with the DVLA and the garage I bought it from (long long story) I have only been able to enjoy it since around February this year. I have always loved the S2000 and have wanted one for years so it's great to finally own one. Coming from a 92 Eunos Roadster which I owned for nearly 4 years the S2000 just feels a huge step up in every way.





After spending a lot of money on my last car I'm trying to be a bit more sensible with this one!

A new set of tyres all round and maybe the exhaust mod for a little extra noise are the only immediate plans I have. The car came with a K&N already fitted which sounds amazing but I think a little more exhaust note wouldn't go a miss either.

quick pic of my previous car



Don't see many other S owners round here but I have spotted a 56 plate Silverstone with black aftermarket wheels a couple of times

We like long, complicated car related stories on here. Particularly if they are garage f@#k ups.

Hey

I recognise your car from Nutz you did a fair bit to that car and looked really clean!

No regrets then, I have a Eunos and I am very close to going for one...!!

There are a few of us in and around Newcastle. A few near North shields, a couple near Teeside and Consett. We're trying to organise more meets and things to do so keep a lookout in the meets section. Where abouts are you? Hopefully see you around bud.

Ah cool, that's only 10-15 minutes away from me. We had our first meet in this region at the customs house last year which you should be familiar with.
