Default S2000 write up

Our local rag the Cambridge Evening News has a weekly motoring section and this week has a glowing write up on the 'new' S2000 GT (never behind the times round these parts!).

The car is a yellow demo' from Priory Honda. Basically they write that the engine and handling are sublime but a little short on space and creature comfort (sic), and not too practical.

Suppose all the local ARM millionaires will be buying them now

What do these journalists expect from a two seater roadster.

Having gone away a number of times in the car I am always amazed at just how much can be got into it.

When I came back from France a few weeks ago not only did we have all the clothes and bits and pieces we took with us but I managed to fit 50 litres of various alcoholic drinks in the boot and I still didn't use the space behind the seats (my wife and I are not too tall) or where the roof sits when down.

They are right about the engine and handling though. I did 80 miles today and when I filled up with Optimax the guy behind the counter looked admiringly at the car and said I can see why you are smiling. I hadn't realised I was but even after owning it for a year I still get that magical feeling after a run.
