Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Amazing fun. Care required in the wet. Awesome on a dry track. A properly Geo'd S2000 is so balanced and great to drift/slide. Engine revs to over 9,000 rpm and sounds fabulous together with a gear shift to die for. And all for £5,000!!!! A real drivers car.
What's it like to park?
Dead easy. Even easier with the roof down.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nope. It's a Honda. They don't go wrong!!!
What's most practical about your car?
Boot is decent given the type of car it is I guess.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Has to be the rev counter. F1 inspired stack style with cool orange effect as the revs rise. Love it!
