Hi Dox Im based in Swansea I bought a 2000 Model S2000 Silverstone/Red Leather ..... absolute dream of a car!!
One owner from new only covered 29,000 miles looks like it has just been driven out of the showroom.......had a look at 4 s2000 before I bought this one and it was by far the best....extremely well kept example near perfect id say even the seats look like they have never been sat in sooo happy I paid 11k for it.
Would like to meet other members now to learn about the car seem like a good bunch of guys on here....
I have already made a few changes....one being the head unit...I have changed that for an Alpine...and ditched the standard speakers in favour of some Alpine Components with tweeters mounted in the windscreen pillers looks ace sounds even better...I never knew you could get so much bass from a small set of components driven by just a 4x60 v-drive headunit......Im not into all the Subs and amps business the cars engine sounds too good to get too into my music lol
Where abouts are you based? Be good to meet up?
Mart

Hi Dox

Good to know we are not alone.......im in the same position as you.......doing up a house working overtime constantly and have a young son who I cannot take my eye off for 1 second!! lol

Still I manage to get the car out every day for the 50 mile round trip to work....its just my toy for work really....my wife has a BMW 330d Touring we use that when we go out as a family so dare I say there will not be a huge mileage going on the s2000 hopfully.....I plan on subtle modifications, and eventually a Supercharger.

Good colour/ Interior choice, I'm originally from Pontypridd but now in Mountain Ash. There have been a few meets in the past but numbers and attendance has been poor (me being most guilty)

I had my car just under three years and apart from the TCT rattling had no other problems, your car sounds mint. join this forum and you be able to post pics. Did your car belong to anyone of this forum?

Ok well lets get a good meet going this time then, I have a metallic vibrating sound when backing off at high revs and after a search in the forum it is something to do with the Clutch? but something people live with so I have read.....apart from that the car drives superbly and it really is in tip top shape.
I will arrange becoming a member shortly, I am a firm believer in supporting great clubs like these and have always done in the past clubs I have been a member of.
Aquilla Eagle told me to set a venue and date so here goes please sign up if you can make it.....apparently everyone trying to arrange a time to suite all never works so I'll set a day, date and time and we will go with that...I really hope we can get a good group together.
