No, but my previous S2000 was also without a red key. There's also no mention of a red key in the handbook AFAIK.

Following comment I have made about Sean Horsey on this website, I today received a letter in the post from his Solicitors

My solicitors are going to have a field day.

Can't really comment on purchasing a car from Sean but I recently sold my S2000 to him and it couldn't have gone smoother. He helped with all the fiannce matters (it was purchased on a Honda Finance agreement) and explained several things about the car that I had never been told, even by the Honda dealer I bought it from!! As far as I can make out he is a pretty good dealer with a thorough knowledge of S2000s.

After I purchased the car 2 years ago from a Honda dealer I had nothing but trouble - it needed a new alarm within a month, the steering needed attention three times before it would drive in a straight line (the dealer tried to fix this without taking it out on a test drive!) and they replaced the tyres with the wrong ones so they needed to get the car back to change them again! It then needed new fuel injectors as it was misfiring - an expensive undertaking! Overall buying the car from Honda was made very easy, but after that the troubles began.

I'm sure that if Honda had been as thorough as Sean was none of this would have happened. I have seen a few posts concerning Sean changing the name of his business to evade problems but I can find no evidence of this, even after checking.

Overall, I would say to anyone out there looking to buy or sell an S2000 to look Sean up. He has a great selection of cars, prices reasonably and knows his stuff - if I was going to buy another I would trust him over a Honda dealer anyday.
Which car was it you sold to him, and for how much, if you don't mind us asking. If you have a genuine interest in this site and its users I'm sure you'd help them so anyone considering it can get the best deal

Sean you are a muppet!

There, I said it. Can I have a letter from your solicitor too please? I can pm you my address if you need but only if you promise not to send anyone round to nick my car.

Oh dear, that's really not good advertising by him, is it?!?

Assuming he WAS innocent before, his actions subsequent to this thread have done him no favours among the community, probably as much damage as the original comments that started the thread(s).

I for one will now not go anywhere near the chap and his company - anyone who'll litigate as swiftly as that is to be avoided like the plague. Idiot.
