Default S2000 Advice

Hi All

Just want some general advice really on whether you think this is a good deal. I went to a view this car earlier today.

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1164666.htm

Does it belong to a member here? I should have asked him. It was last serviced at Honda in January and needs a new MOT and tax in September. Condition was quite good, there were a few scratches on both doors which will need a bodyshop. I can't see the tyres lasting many more miles. Also, the roof is in ok condition apart from a slight tear right in the corner by the window he said that happens often? What would you pay for it?

Hmmm!

"few scratches on both doors which will need a bodyshop. I can't see the tyres lasting many more miles. Also, the roof is in ok condition apart from a slight tear right in the corner by the window"

Doesn't sound like the "Excellent Condition" they are advertising it as. But then that is probably just me.
