I saw S200 OWO in Ham Lane Wimborne this morning with a couple in it. Top down. May be holiday makers?

I managed to catch you up and given you had your hood down I attempted to say "it was only raining 5min ago!!! " to you but not sure you heard .

Private plate started with MII ****. Not seen you around there before .
Hi Ch3tman, That was me. I had just bought my S2 2mins before that and was on my drive back home. Was thinking to myself whats the odds i just bought my first S2000 and i bump into another one, it was meant to be, ha ha. Sorry if i looked a bit pre occupied, was my first time driving a S2, previously owned a suzuki cappuccino so was getting used to the fact i was driving twice as much car with 4 times the power, lol.

haha... that's brilliant! Yes - you did look happy and pretty satisfied to be driving the car - even though you had the hood down when it was spitting! That's pretty good 'top always down' commitment from a new owner .

You're actually one of few people to actually reply to a spotting from me - despite posting here for nearly 4 years, the ones I spot never seem to be on here .

I pass through that area on the way home from work so perhaps I'll see you if you're localish. Don't see too many red ones around so I'm sure a few pics would be welcomed. Good luck with ownership .

Ha ha, well if you are wanting a "top always down" comment from a new owner... The roof was down all the way back to near Bristol on the M4 even though there was a light shower on the way. I was pretty glad the s2 was like my Cappo in that at motorway speeds rain seems to just fly over the top of the car, lol. Come to think of it i haven't actually driven it yet with the top up, ha ha.

Cheers, will post some pics up soon. Going to get a few of it sat next to my red Cappo, lol

Ruined 52 plate grey S2000 on the A41/M25 junction, usually every day.

Hella flushed and lowered so much he had to drive round a blade of grass.
