Well, here it is in all its glory - and in the sunshine.

Managed to do 120 or so miles today and hope to do the same tomorrow - the hard top is coming off so hopefully there'll be a little sunshine to enjoy.

First impression of this S versus my old 02 model is a much improved throttle action.

Delighted I've returned to S ownership!

I think I need to get the sunglasses out to look at that photo.

I expect the hardtop will shortly be removed?

Looking good Mark, just in time for it to start raining
Can't say I've seen a NIOP with a hard top on before

The S2000 looks fantastic in NIOP I'm surprised it's so rare a colour.
Great pic too

You may well be right - the dealer I bought it off told me this was the second NIOP they'd sold in as many months - and the other one was bought on the strength of seeing my car in the flesh.

No photograph or colour swatch does the colour justice IMHO and it's big leap of faith to buy one unseen (as I did!).

Colud NIOP be the new Silverstone
