I'd say lowest price would be around 7.5k.

I reckon you might be able to get a very high miler at that price that may require bits and bobs doing to it - but i wouldnt bother if i were you.

Just save up an extra 2k and you'll get a much better S2000 but still around the 10year old mark though.

I've seen some good lower milage ones 9-10 years old for around the 7-7.5 mark.
That's what I'll be aiming for next year when it comes to sell mine. Not looking forward to that time!!! :-(

Now would be a good time to buy and £7.5k mark is the going price. Check out insurance though as that can really sting.

There are bargains out there to be had but you've got to be willing to look long and hard.....and be prepared to walk away from most of them

I picked mine up in Feb of this year with 72k on the clock, 2 owners, full Honda service history with the added extra of a mohair roof and later type exhaust for the princely sum of £6000....all it needed was a wheel refurb to tidy up the alloys

But you've got to kiss a lot of frogs

They're out there, but you'll have to go for an early car that's on the register (Cat D/C) or a high miler.
