Hi All,

This is my first post to this fantastic forum... I have been looking to buy a 2nd hand S2000 for the last month and I think I have finally found the one I want.

I have test driven it at the weekend and it was fantastic, however is there anything I need to look out for.

One thing about my test drive was the clutch.... It seemed that when I was depressing the clutch it was fighting me a bit and seemend to a bit grindy?

The car is a 2000 model and has 42,000 miles but has a Full Honda Service History and looks to be in fantastic condition..

Is there anything I should look out for?

Thanks all in advance!

 

A clutch bleed would be my first stop:

Beyond that, I sent you a PM with various things to look for and their potential causes. I know the list is a bit on the exhaustive side but I don't think it hurts to be a little critical. Also keep in mind that these problems are few and far between, the S is put together quite well. Good luck and welcome aboard, this site will quickly become invaluable to you.

 

I recenly purchased a 2001. After checking the VIN number, I took it to a dealer and had them do the once over. Lucky for me, they told me it was in great shape and I was fortunate to purchase it at the price I paid for it.

 

apex, I would be intereseted in the information if you could post it or PM it to me? thanks

 

BRN2DRIVE,
PM sent, I hope it helps and let me know if you have any questions. Good Luck.
