AAAAh the melodic shriek of an I4 being wrung out, my idea of personal hell. You have no soul, whereas an Alfa V6 does. And as for GTV V6's being the choice of "muppets" I would like to say that my encounters of the S2000 have been entirely of balding mid-life crisis types. Great image.

I agree. Or chavved up young ricers.

If the S had 4 seats it'd be a cab in 18 months....

'hello Mr Colin......where would you be liking to travel Mr Colin, I can do it cheaper'


Arse end out, up to 9k, 'There you go Mr Colin, 15 English pounds Mr Colin'

Storyboard note.

Thread takes on nasty mood.

Cue abuse.

You get muppets in all sorts of cars so stop whinging about GTV's are the choice of muppets.

As for driving position in a GTV, I didn't buy an S2000 because I couldn't fit in the bl00dy thing. No height adjustment on the steering wheel so being 6'2" my knees were just crushed against it. No such problem in the GTV, all this long arms short legs talk is just cr4p written by people who don't have a clue.

As for performance yes on paper the S2000 is faster but I've outdragged a few S2000's in a V6 GTV, that'll be the driver skill coming into play

Don't get me wrong, I think S2000's are good cars, I nearly got one, but lay of off the stereotyping...on both sides
