Post New owner - almost

Just put a deposit down for a new S. Hopefully this will arrive late June/ early July.

I would like to say thanks to all you chaps (and chapesses of course) who have provided loads of useful advice to help me make the right decisions. I have gone for a GT in Silverstone with a black interior. This is probably one of the most common combo's, but I think its great.

Springfield Honda have done a good deal - almost as good as Drive the Deal after considering delivery to the NE of UK and the extras that were thrown in.

Really looking forwards to the end of the month!

Will post some pics once I get it.

Cheers
Graham

I have that combo as well. I do like the red interior but I think it does look quite classy with the silver and black.

Excellent choice and welcome my friend.

Hi

First of all, congrats!

Do you mind letting me know the price - PM if you wish.

As you've probably seen, we are trying for a Group Buy of s2000s in the 'For Sale' forum, but can't find a suitable receptive dealer. But if that's the delivery time, by the time we get around to it summer will have gone

Might be worth us giving them a try. Who did you speak to?

Maybe Springfield Honda are DTD dealers anyway?

Don't quite know what you mean about delivery to the NE - a quick search shows Springfield Honda as being in the NE....

You have great times ahead of you.

You MUST read up on how to treat your car for the first 600/1000 miles. It is a VERY frustrating time behind the wheel, but looking after your car in the early days pays dividends.

Look forward to meeting at a meet sometime.
