In Germany, Hondas are pretty rare. From memory I saw one or two S2000s in nearly a year.

i have heard of an awful lot of uk lotus’s being sold in Europe..... so could possible see the good uk s2000’s fetching good money there instead of being sold in the uk ....

I’d certainly do it .... mine looks to be around the 20k Euro mark ... well worth a trip to deliver and tie in a little holiday!

I think the worst car for depreciation we’ve had was a near new guff when VW got caught shagging their sister or whatever

my S has lost c£12k in 15 years and 60k miles i guess. Also nearly new at the time (1500 miles, 18m)

My S' ended up in France when I sold it back in May. Easiest sale I've ever made.

My old S2000 was sold to a guy in Germany, him and his dad flew over, I collected them from the airport and they paid up and drove the car back to Germany. They said that the car would fetch a good £2-3k more in Germany!

Classic car prices in Germany are utterly stupid - they seem to be the 'in thing' over there.

I think that probably drags up prices of other interesting stuff.
