The best way to prevent someone taking your wheels in London is to go and have a coffee whilst on a double yellow!!!
I see 2 or 3 a day on my M4/A4 travels. Always Silver/Black or Silver/Red. Very occasionally do I see a Blue with Hardtop coming out of town about 10.15 in the morning.

I've seen quite a few s2000's in the West Midlands over the past month. (between Birmingham and Nottingham)
Several silver models and a single black one.
Just two weeks ago I saw a nice silver one (although it looked like a champagne colour ?? not sure why.....) with reg = 'Y200O ??' at mcdonalds off the M42 by the A444 services. I was in my Black/Red Y-reg too....
Im guessing it was owned by someone who was eating in there like myself, but I couldn't make out who's it was.

Just out of interest, i see some of you have had trouble getting hold of english service books for imported s2000s....well, just to make you feel worse, I managed to get hold of an english service book, and I live in france! 
And i never said I thought the S2000 was common, i just meant that by a bizarre set of circumstances, I was driving through London in a silver S2000, and within 5 minutes I saw two other identical cars to mine, one parked, one heading in the opposite direction. I completely agree that it is feasible to go for months without seeing a single other S2000, and by NO means would I consider this car to be common....thats one of the many reasons I love it so
I still see no takers for the silvers that i saw....
S2000 TT, and the other one, a Y reg, that were in London last weekend...come on, confess, you must be out there!

I had a nightmare with my locking wheel nuts (ooh err missus). Probably just me being useless, but if they are put on too tight (ie. with an airgun), the useless little tool they provide you with will not get enough torque to do anything other than trash them. There are some Honda alternatives - my dealer claims to have 20 on order from pi**ed-off owners. Including me.

Honda UK are doing their level best to act like twats again.
They sent an English service book back with the CoC and warranty document that I sent them, instructing me to contact my local dealer.
No-one in the local dealer had not heard of the change in procedure, but took copies of the relevant documents anyway
The dealer's only worry is in case of recall letters. They would have no problem supporting the car or submitting warranty claims should the need arise.
I'm sure Honda UK are just throwing their toys on the floor because they've lost their cut due entirely to their own greed.
