Is that the leather centre console then?
Thanks! Yeah, just the leather centre console trim

Anyway, hopefully we'll get something sorted soon now the evenings are getting longer.

Carden motors are an excellent Honda specialist in the city and I use Clark Motorsport for my suspension and allignment work.

Enjoy your new beast. If you want to hear the UK Exhaust mod then give me a shout.
Hello! Cool, I'm currently living in Dyce near BP. Will have to meet up some time for a chat if you fancy that?

I used to use Carden all the time when I had my Civic VTi-S (MB6) - you're right. They were excellent.

Thanks for the advice on alignment. A few of my VW buddies use them.

Haha, I found it during my test-drive! Only because I was a closet S2k fanboy prior to ownership

Oh really? That's cool When did you see her? She didn't even manage to get out on the forecourt before I'd bought her, haha

Hi, I am also in Aberdeen. Was going to go to the meet but with the bad weather we have had lately I decided to keep mine off the road until May. Just got my alloys booked in for a black respray with the wheel specialist in Dyce.

Hello AP1 or 2? What colour?

Coincidentally seen 5 S2000s the last two days... from none for a long time... to 5! Must be something to do with that big bright ball in the sky

You only get AP1 in the UK Mark. Most of the guys on here refer to their car by manufacturing year so a 2001 plate S2000 would be MY01.

Mines a MY00. I plan on going to see Grame soon (SC4Z) to hear his exhaust mod.

Thanks for that. Egg on my face. I've clearly spent too much time on US S2000 threads!

He mentioned that exhaust mod earlier, I must see what it's all about.

Oh they catch us all out with that, it's a right of passage as an owner to be called out on referring to your car as an AP whatever and be corrected

Finally went and picked her up yesterday! DVLA took their sweet-ass time...

I honestly didn't stop smiling from the moment I left the forecourt.

Some pics from collection and the journey home
