Default Finally got my s2000

Hi everyone,
After some time looking and waiting for the right car I finally pulled the trigger and I couldn't be more pleased. 2004 silver w hardtop. After finding the car on kijij several provinces away I took the flight, the bus and the drive to pick it up. Then I drove it 16 hrs home. The previous owner was great in prepping the car for the trip. Fresh oil. And not a single issue.

Congrtas & tell us more

Your 16 hour drive was from ? to ?.

Good thing to have the hard top; probably extends the use by a few weeks in the Great White North

Drive Safe

Thanks for the welcome,

The drive was from Yarmouth Nova Scotia to Amherst 500km (leg 1) then from Amherst to Toronto. About 1690km (leg2). I went through Lunenburg, Fredericton Edmunston, Quebec City, Montreal, Toronto. Gas mileage was great on the first tank, 8L/100km, but I didn't track the gas the whole trip.

Nice, I love the drive back after picking up a car. Very memorable.

Is this the one with the Mugen hardtop?

Yeah, the one with the Mugen hardtop. I was familiar with the various cars for sale too. Watching kijiji.
