time to get rid of the s2000
you know it is that time when, walking thru shrewsbury saw a parked up 04/05 s2000 in red, with the tacky honda bodykit, black oz alloys and names of various automotive suppliers stickered on the front wing. chavd up corsa stops in traffic next to me with the s2000 across the road and i could clearly see the chav mouth to his girlfriend (presumably she came complete with tramp stamp), as he pointed to the s2000, f***in' beautiful that car". time for it to go in that case.

Yep, I had a chav give me the thumbs up the other day, time to sell it... 
Dont let that sway you. There's a 1% chav S2000 population. Think yourself lucky you're not into scoobs!
Ignore it and enjoy the car.

I would add that the Honda body additions are far from chav IMO. Im not keen on the rear spoiler but OEM stuff always looks good and in keeping with the lines of the car.
OZ's are nice too!
Shopping lists are a "no" though...

The thing is, they like everything so you cant win. I love Lacoste stuff, unfortunately the chavs like to wear copy stuff. I can look smart in it, so it doesnt put me off 
Same with the S - keep it looking tidy and people still respect it as a car with reasonable class and style.
Not many of them can afford them, as they are still the wrong side of 10k second hand, difficult to master, expensive to insure (not that they do insurance) and more importantly, there are more chav cars up the pecking order.... such as M3's and Impreza's.
Maybe an Elise or Boxter remains untouched, but the S isnt exactly chav couture yet!

I think super leg whatevers look good! I bought mine because they were cheap and I needed tires but they have really grown on me! I don't think I would do anything else to the cars appearance that didn't help the performance. Except that is for the burberry seat covers and the 40+BHP gains boost thing I got on ebay bruv!

Remember something about 'Style' of driving with the same description.
and
don't sell, we need you to 'keep it classy'.
