Honda S2000 (1999 - 2009) 2.0i GT 2d (2008/58) Owner Review

Not a lot. It's quite inconspicuous so it delivers fun in spades without making you look pretentious.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Everyone seems to like it.

Aston Martin Vantage.

Independent

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£16,000

September 2011

Did you get a good deal and why?

Reasonable price and limited availability on the vehicle.

Thought it would be reliable and fun.

What was the dealer like?

What's it like to drive?

Ace, loads of feedback and the noise is intoxicating when you drive it hard.

What's it like to park?

Very limited visibility to the rear unless the roof is down.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Oh yes... Engine ate it's big ends at 23000 miles. Apparently a common problem with the 2009 car!

What's most practical about your car?

The tyres.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

The start button.
