I get around a bit!

yeah white with green bumper. It's turbo charged with a built B16. It's amazing.

Many mods, I won't hijack your thread.

Car is looking great Josh! Makes me want to mod my GT100 instead of sell it! lol! I know once I start I won't stop!

Nice daily driver too! I bet that wasn't cheap being a Pirelli version! They're great everyday cars! I had a manual mk5 gti.

thanks man

the little mods I've done have really made me love the s2k and can't see it going anywhere soon

I was originally after a edition 30 mk5 but couldn't find one that I would be happy with . This came up local and the chap has had it 6 years and also spent a small fortune on quality mods ( bilstein, eibach, lsd, milltek, s3 brakes , mapped to 310bhp /300ftlb) it's a little rocket ship ! These came today for it as well

Dude where DO you get your money from????

I know if I start to play with the GT100 I'll enjoy it more and want to keep it. I know I'd probably get flamed for modding a GT100 too! ha ha!

found this machine in the wall .... just put some number in and hey presto money keeps coming out !! Hahah

I'd be looking to keep your s2k mate ..... when I was in the hunt for something a bit more special ( and an awful lot more money ) the cars just didn't blow me away for the money /running costs ect over the humble s2000. It really is a cracking little sports car .

Yes I'm swaying more towards keeping it. I nearly did a swap with an RS4 avant last month, but it was nowhere near as good condition as my S2k so I just couldn't do it!!!!
