Default Goodbye S2000

Well, put the money down for my 350Z today.
So, I will be getting rid next month.
It has been a superb car, and I have enjoyed every minute of it, but time for a change.
My supersprint exhaust will be up for sale, I will post pictures soon, to any interested. It is a beautiful fitting system for this car, with oval tailpipes that are cut back inline with the bumper.
The system was

Commiserations on the loss, but congratulations on the new car.

What spec did you go for on the 350z?

Blade silver, GT pack, Rays forged wheels.
Looks absolutely gorgeous!
Wish i could keep the S2k as well, but dont have the money or the room.
Interestingly enough the insurance is 500 quid a year cheaper on the 350z compared to the s2000!!! (im 27)
The S2000 is as expensive as just about anything out there for insurance. Crazy world we live in.

I'm also 27 and my insurance came down a lot too.

What delivery times are they quoting / are you on a factory build or a cancelled order?

Cancelled order actually, should be here mid-late Feb. But I have asked them to hold on until the 1st of march to get an 04 plate. Looks like I'm gonna have to punt my s2000 to them next month so that they are getting a decent trade in price on it. I'll have to run about in a banger for a month until i get mine. Worth it to get the 04 plate though.
