Common Cars
Blimey - holy smoke - incredible - seriously amazing. I've just been for a blast (<5.5k) around local roads and seen 2 S2000s! Both light grey. One with a hardtop going south on the A6 around Kibworth and another (hood up?) just by Stoughton Airport. Flashed at both with no visible response. Will I be seeing you guys at the Leicester mini-meet?

There's a funy thing because in the permanent planning of the next car (I'm always doin this) I was trying to find something unusual.
I test drove 1 of these in Egham today......
Its a much heavier car but flippin hell was it gorgeous.

You have been thinking exactly the same as me Shipley. One of the few cars that could replace the S2000 - a fantastic looking convertable with a screaming Ferrari 4.2 V8.

up here in glasgow i see maybe one S evrey month or so!
that's been a big factor in me buying one - wanted some exclusivity - when I bought my ctr it was a very rare car - now I can see five or six a day sometimes.
S gives me real exclusivity, more power, rwd, bling-bling factor, roof-down option - it's all good!
pick it up on friday at 12!!!
this week has dragged in!
it better be sunny on friday!

Usually see one 'S' a week! See loads of Teee Teee's & Porkers! Must be lots of hairdressers around here!
Went on a 700 mile round trip last week & didn't see another 'S', not one!!!!
Better make the most of it though, what with all the good reviews (AutoEXPRESS etc) might become "Common Cars".
