Yes - Check my status, and my 
It has arrived, and boy did I know it... Picked it up at 3pm and went for a drive with a friend.
Had people flash us (no main beam was not on), little toots of the horn, waves, much head turning (it's still there)
Well, I am actually pretty lost for words, tomorrow I think I will have a leather seat permanently attached to my bum
-Looking forward to many happy motoring miles-

Congatulations Liam and welcome to the fold
So are you going to come and show it off in Shrewsbury and Mid-Wales? Just imagine it.... top-down, sunshine, open roads, no urban sprawl, valleys, lakes, forests, mountains, twisties.... mmmmm...
Plus lots of S2000 goodies to look at and compare 
We're up to 34 cars and 56 people now

What oil should I use to top up (if needed) during the run in period and up until the first service?
And is there anywhere I can get hold of a UK manual? Can you buy them from a Honda Garage?
TIA

Welcome to the club, and as Andy said, your grin will get bigger as soon as you can get the roof down
Toping up the oil will most definitely be needed and you should check every time you fill up, this is very important!! Some cars drink more than others but it appears that all of them drink a lot, particularly in the running in period. As for type, use a mineral oil or at most a semi-synthetic, don't use a fully synthetic oil until you have had your first service/oil change at around 9000miles.
Remember, no VTEC until 600 miles

Do a search for the Manual, I think somebody had a copy on CD.

You've not even had a service yet
