Being a Limited edition won't make an impact on the Euro/UK markets. After 2002 (estimated) when production halts I think there would be much differences in price between a UK car and a Imported car (1-2K max).
Currently a s2k without warrenthy goes for about

Can you import European versions into the U.K.?

Ivs2k, you might benefit from some elucidation.

Like yourselves, the Europeans drive on the wrong side of the road

Most European dealers are however happy to provide RHD UK spec special order cars to us Limeys, which is nice because we save

Pancho, I think the majority of S2000's allocated to Europe are eventually becoming RHD destined for the UK!!!!!

Shame I couldn't wait, but I'm sure my ORIGINAL MY2000 UK Spec.S2000 with no clock weight to slow me down will be priceless in a few years

What is it only the softy (sorry, North American) market that gets the "can't live without" luxury features?

What a pampered bunch of wimps!
