Thanks for posting that Pete, it covers the very same roads I drove to collect my S2000

Seems a well balanced article picking up on both the good and less endearing features (creased window) of the car.

Trying to find a dealer with a demo model at the moment - local one has sold theirs.

Business is obviously good in the dealerships - they don't get back to one!
I'm not sure where abouts Waltham Chase is in relation to them but I do know that Norton Way Honda in Letchworth had 3 used S2000s in 2 weeks ago (and a red NSX). 1 black, 2 silver one of these had a hard top on. I'm pretty sure you could get a test drive there...

PM me if you want their location etc.

As you say Norton Way Honda did have 3 S2000's in but I brought one of them!

They would be delighted to give you a spin, as its just a good excuse for sales staff to have a blast.

Phone on 01462 678191 Just ask for Alex Scott, top man.

I can't believe that sales of the S2000 are that low in the UK....

You guys certainly have a pretty rare car there then....

Yep, often months before you see another one.
