My car although having only one owner and done only 34000 miles with full honda history was owned by a wide boy and obviously got abused. it is sorted now, just remember, never thrash it when its cold, really let it warm up, check oil, keep engine oil clean, change the trans and diff oil (making sure its the right stuff ) and i reckon all should be well
I'd say those are problems with buying a used car, rather than any problem with Honda itself.

Could have happened with any car, not just an S2000

Glad it's sorted now though
