Honda S2000... y0

[Fagan]

Lusted after one of these since I was 17, as soon as I turned 21 and was able to insure one, I started looking. After a brief stint with a LY 200 I found this and couldn't resist. It's all the car I thought it would be and more, I love it!

There are some terrible pictures in this post. Bare with me, it will get better :approve:

Driving her home for the first time

Got it home and threw a bucket over it

I went a little under budget on buying the car, so I bought coilovers the same day as the car. I went for Buddyclub N+ spec dampers. They get good reviews for the money and although I haven't got them properly set up yet, I'm happy so far. The following weekend I set about fitting them. I'd only ever fitted coilovers to a MK1 MX-5 in the past and it was a ballache, but the S2000 was a doodle. It only took me a few hours in total.

I was a bit optimistic with the "lows" at first and it took me about 20 minutes to get the car out of the garage which has a step less than an inch.

Had to raise it slightly as I have speed bumps in my works car park. This was also my first chance to attempt some half decent photo's.

Thanks for looking so far, plenty more to come.

Gorgeous car!

 

[Eddie.]

That's perfect.

Would.

 

[DanielJames]

Can't wait til I'm 21 lol.

Stunning pal.

Must have set you back a pretty penny! Unforunately I'll only be able to afford an early one, going to get a Silverstone grery with red leather though to make the most of it.

I imagine insurance is still way over a grand for it?

 

[Philip.]

I've looked at one, insurance is more than I'd be willing to pay atm.

 

[philmots]

Looks awesome. I can't get over how much better the facelift cars look! Those wheels are lovely, too.

 

[Fagan]

Headlights had yellow'd a little so I got the DA onto them. Here's a comparison

I also bought a set of side diffusers from an American forum user. I don't have any pictures of them on my car but they're the same as below. I've fitted mine so that they stick out slightly less though.

 

[chris-182]

stunning, one day I WILL own one!

 

[_Tom]

Awesome although it's a little low..

 

[Joe#]

That looks so good. And you are also mental, buying coilovers the same day as the car lol!

Keepit up

 

[Hixle]

My god. That looks superb.

 

[EllD90]

Car looks awesome! Keep it nice and simple and you're onto a winner. Those wheels look great for standard.

 

[Advikaz]

Tasty

 

[James28]

Looks awesome. Glad you raised it a bit though from your first attempt, looks much better.
Look forward to updates!

 

[Dave..]

How much is the insurance out of curiosity? I'm 24 with 5 years no claims, and even I was being quoted £2000+ on an S2000

F*ck that, it was only £1600 to be insured on a gallardo!

 

[Jon.G]

f**king hell that's nice. Very jelly.
