Hello guys, new guy from the UK here, Liverpool to be exact. Not new to the Jap scene but have strayed for the last few years.

Previous cars

few corsas
several civics

Will be splitting the Octavia shortly to fund my next toy.... S2000 time now my insurance is half sociable! After a facelift GT with hardtop. can wait for the right car to come along and have plenty of plans already.

You'll love the blue interior over time. It's much better looking in person.

picked it up, and you're right, the blue interior certianly has grown on me!


well...........was getting bored of the Octavia after owning it for nearly 3 years so wanted a change. Did look into a lot of different cars but finally settled for a 2 owner S2000 GT '05. Ticks all the boxes for now. Love the handling of it and the noise reminds me of the old civic. Proper happy with it. Spent yesterday cleaning it up properly, the previous owner was a Grandma so although it had been well looked after it hadn't been loved. Thanks to Mark for helping with all his cleaning goodies!













Full detailing thread here...

Just waiting for my private plate documents to come back from DVLa and the front plate holder will be binned off. Already painted the calipers from rust to Metallic Grey.

First things first..the basics



arches cleaned and brakes painted




Plans are coilovers, bushes, set of wheels and breathing mods.

Longer terms plans are possible charger/turbo but we'll see!
