Glad he is treating her well. It's a great car i had 14k very enjoyable miles in it. Although I have to say I am not missing putting fuel in it one bit. They are properly hard to feed. I think the s is doing about twice the mpg of the liner

That is true, I'd imagine it would be hard to run on a daily basis but will be a good weekend car for him. The S may not have the straight line power but it has a great chassis in it's own right and a lot of fun on the right roads in the powerband

To be perfectly honest I am enjoying driving the s more than the gtr. Just goes to show you it's not all about power.

Hi all,

Just a quick hello to fellow Irish members from a new s2k owner from Belfast. Only had the car a couple of weeks but I have been loving every min of owning it. Some would say it's the perfect time of year to have one of these !! Been using her everyday and apart from the odd bit of tail out action she has treated me very well indeed.

Looking forward to catching up at a meet or two this year. Thinking of doing the modball rally in her. Anyone else going ?


Cheers phil
Hi Phil,

Hi there guys.

We are planning to attend a charity event at Dunsford Park in May.

It would be good to see an Irish contingent at the event. If you are interested in attending please put your name down.
