Default Newbies questions

Hello chaps, I'm looking to buy an '02 s2k next week! in monte carlo blue.

I was wondering if somebody could answer 2 quesitons for me -

1). does the rear spoiler for the s2k suit all years?

2). what size tyres fit the the 04 style new standard alloys? and what is recommended?

Many thanks.

I had a 205 GTi years ago. Nice cars. You'll find the S2000 very different but don't let the stories on here put you off. It's a great sportscar in the classic tradition.

Have a really good read on the FAQ and keep coming back to it!

I asked a newbie question on brake fluid today - after 3 years

Also have a look at the US forums as there is often other interesting useful stuff on there we never get round to or find out about

welcome to the forum mate

i used to have a peugeot 306xss - was quite a good car.

french cars slagged off loads (so there must be some justification) - but i've owned two (the one mentioned + a megane coupe) and both never put a foot wrong. ho hum.
