Default Back to the fold

Ladies and Gents,

I've decided to take the plunge and get myself another S2000 (back to where I belong). I've been looking at a Silver one advertised with S20004U and have a couple of questions :-

1. Has anybody have any experience of these company, and if so are they ok?

2. Has anybody on here owned or know anything about W611 SGJ?

I would appreciate any feedback you could give me.

It's good to be back!

Regards

Martin

Mixed comments about S20004U, both good & bad .

Best do a Search - there are a few threads out there.

Here's an example.

Well...I'm guessing nothing much has changed. HPI'd the S2000 i was looking at after being told it had 80K'ish on the clock, only to find out it was last registered as having 100k on the clock. I don't think i'll heading down to S20004U in the near future.

Thanks for all your help. Found a better Berlina at me local Honda dealer, reasonable price too...so result all round I guess.

Regards

Martin

Let me guess...

Ouch... yes the DVLA do show as the mileage being 100k on the last keeper change on 11/08/2007.

That mileage will also be on the V5C, so I am not sure why S20004U would advertise the car as 80k

The car I bought had apparently done 33k, when I viewed it it had done 38k, but was still put down as 33k on the sales invoice.

Very probably a simple confusion. Is there really any point in trimming down 20%?
