The hifi controls are the same on all S2000s. (Just on opposite sides depending whether LHD or RHD).

There are no buttons on the steering wheel itself.

Please don't take this the wrong way but how much research did you actually do before parting with your cash?

How many other cars did you look at?

By far the easiest way to find out is to phone your local dealer, quote the chassis number and ask them to check what the warranty mileage is - if they say 60,000 miles then it is an import, 90,000 miles is UK spec.

sure fire test!

Hi, My car is a 2009 and from Gibralta,as for as I am aware the only differance is the lack of locking wheel nuts, and shorter warranty.It was first registered in the UK,I was told it was exactly the same as a UK car except the wheel nuts,before I bought the car I asked Honda UK if this was the case,and they confirmed it.If you phone Honda UK with the VIN they will put it on the uk register...Thats what they told me anyway.I was worried about the corrosion warranty but its the same except with the JDM models.I wouldnt worry to much.
