Default S2000 Returns

It's been about 2 months since i've driven my car due to horrific weather conditions and the fact I was waiting to turn 22 to get my insurance renewed... in the mean time I was driving a 1.9TDI mk4 golf which is obviously worlds apart...

The night before I felt like I was waiting for Christmas to come, so excited to drive her again... especially after watching almost every GTChannel(youtube) hot version and BMI video! Didn't realise how much those things make you want to drive!!


Anyway the next day came and I phoned the insurance company, before the guy had a chance to say "you are now insured" I was out and in my S... starting her up... instantly I had a huge smile on my face... even though it's still 4 degrees the roof was down and I was on my way... everything I had gotten used to over the year of owning her was instantly re-confirmed... I loved the steering response, brakes and most of all the engine... the first time 9k was reached I almost came! it was fantastic!! I am now off for a wee night drive... so chat to you guys later...


(thread is pointless... but thought you guys that are waiting to get their S2k's out the garage would like reading it, in anticipation! It's worth the wait )

Be careful hitting that redline at night in the cold. Otherwise you'll be admiring your S as it is wrapped around a tree.

Weird sexual proclivities aside, I know what you mean. We've had a tough winter even here in south Virginia. Can't wait to start regularly driving again.
