Default S2000 Novice...

I've just got my hands on my first ever S2000 and I'm loving it already.

My name is Mark and I live in Southport, Merseyside. I'm good friends with Rhauri another member on here and he was the main reason I went for an S2000. He was pretty convincing that the S2000 was the car to get! I will be getting involved in the North West meets and will be heading down to the Silverstone Classic weekend later in the year.

The S2000 has always been a car I've wanted to own and I still don't think its sunk in that I've actually got one. The VTEC engine is something else!

My S2000 is a 2004 Moon Rock with black leather interior. There are a few little things I need to sort out, the main thing being the roof. It has the common hole above the drivers shoulder and its also letting water in at the front corner on the drivers side when braking. I've got it booked in with Jack Smith at the end of March so hopefully they can work their magic!

Here's a little pic taken on the drive home:

Welcome dude! Glad to see you posting already

flybikeslee, I didn't realise you were Southport bound! My S2K is a black pre-facelift, are you referring to a facelift one?

That said, I've since moved away from Southport down the road to Liverpool city-centre.
