Default S2000 Edition 100

Chester Honda have just taken stock of a GT edition 100 with a massive 1,190 miles on the clock, surely must be the lowest mileage one about?
£16,745 asking price.

I wonder where it came from, seems a very small amount of miles for someone to have traded in, and it can't have been unregistered as it's on a 09 plate. Can't even think that it was a car that someone with a load of money would have bought and happily part ex'd with another Honda 3 years later! Seems to be coming a little rarer these days with the numbers being thinned out with some write offs, wonder if anyone will buy it just to store for years too come?

Aren't the last cars plagued with stupid problems? Incredibly low mileage though, agreed.

May not have been traded in against a Honda, they could have just been the underwriters for the car.

What would worry me about that car is with so few miles, did the owner ever bother warming it up before what little they drove it. I've done half that mileage in my first week and getting it get up to temperature is excruciating.

The latest cars are complete liabilitys IMO, I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole. Lovely looking car though.

I'd have it. I'd just make sure I always had an extended warranty.

What's wrong with the latest cars? Why are they so bad?
