You speak for yourself. I bet I'm pretty good to watch.

I was thinking the same thing.

(Not about you)

There is no way on the face of this earth I'm driving a beater!

I enjoy driving too much to turn the run to work and back again into a commute.

I've got to spend upwards of £450 on tyres for the S next week....joy! And then the tax runs out at the end of the month.

I might get back in the S when it's got new tyres on and see how I feel then.

But then I also need to get rid of the god awful Buddy Club exhaust too as it just makes my ears hurt everywhere. More bloody money...

Oh and it'll cost me £800 to bolt a turbo to the MX5. Bargain.

Every now and again I get the same feeling Gary but for a r5 gtt again.
I'm never gonna track the s2000 as it's to nice,and I never push it down the bk roads as hard as I did with my old gtt's.i think I wasn't as bothered with the r5's as I knew they were so cheap to fix(although parts seem to be on the rise)
I used to give them death (dragstrip,B roads etc)and never battered an eye lid.


Old skool rulz haha

Really? I'd come to the conclusion it was at least double that? TBH I think FI would spoil it but the temptation is always there isn't it

Give me some good reasons to keep the S.
You dont have boobs or a vagina

You aint a hairdresser

You're not in the same club as MB?



Seriously though, get a beater and use the S2000 for fun times only, i do this and will more than likely keep it when i get my next car sometime this year (either V6 Supercharged or V8)

I'm a raving hetro. You are thinking of AJ
