Default Oldest S2000 in the UK

Coming upto my 4th anniversary in the near future, I began to wonder who had the oldest S2000 in the UK, excluding the original 'Press' demonstrators.

To get the ball rolling, my car was delivered in August, but wasn't actually registered until 13/09/1999.

So can anyone beat that ???

Dunno about mine. V5 says Import - Declared Year of Manufacture 1999. Must be old cause it's gone white

First registered 3rd September 99 and only 15k on the clock...

Couldn't believe it - I'm the 3rd owner and the car had done just 1700 miles when I bought it in Feb 01.

Does the chassis number indicate the earliest build? Mine is 355.

From what I can remember mine was first registered Nov '99. It was previously owned by Nick aka GrayBloke.

I've just passed the 50k mile mark now in her now. In the past 8 months I have managed a very pleasant 27k miles in her. Only had the one hiccup when I wanted to find out what a bunch of cows were up to in the field, but other than that (touch wood) it has been a trouble free time. Nice one Honda!

I may have been the oldest S2K owner - Does that count?

Probably not - I think I meant current existing owners
