Sorry to hear about the car. Hope you are okay. Do make sure you get yourself checked over by a doctor, better to be safe than sorry. The last thing you want is an injury going undiagnosed which gives you problems later on.

Take care and enjoy whatever you replace the S2000 with.

Dibs so far:-

Wheels and rims:- Melly_s2k
Braces:- Japcrap, dis91
Cams:- U_N
Teins:-
Mirrors:- Wishful Thinker
Front Bumper/Headlights:- MattyH
The Shell:- m3bmwcab, drmikey
AEM EMS:- drmikey
PLM Manifold:- drmikey
Innovative mounts:- drmikey

I haven't got the car back yet, don't know when either. Dibs are shown in order in which I received the PM and everything will be on first come, first served basis. The shell or rest of the car will be collection only from Reading.

Once I have prices and more confirm things I will put up a FS thread. Sorry LG!

In other news, this is one of the strongest cars I know, the policeman couldn't believe I just opened the door and got out, he said most convertibles fold in half in an impact like this (around 50-60mph and I was stationary).

Oh and I should say, the engine is goosed as well, for some reason just before the crash it died and I was broken down when I got hit so it would need a new engine according to the insurance company.

The merits of a custom designed roadster rather than a coupe with the roof cut off

Absolutely - that high H-bone frame has its merits.

It was a 2002. The top was replaced only 2 years ago, but I do not know how to remove it...
