Pfeds - I think it was your post on CRX-UK that got me looking at S2000's this time around! How do you find it compares to the CRX in terms of the smile factor?
Sounds like an import might not be too bad, I guess the fact they are already a group 20 insurance means it cant go much higher anyway.
I will keep doing my homework on here and then have a look around for good examples.

As for buying JDM - they're cheaper, more powerful, and likely to be in better condition (such as bushes + bolts etc). I'm paying about

An 02 with 60k for that price... well worth it!
Also, its obviously been very well looked after and owned by 2 members here. MUCH better than buying from any Joe Bloggs or a dealer!

I owned a MkII CRX-VT for nearly 9 years before switching to a CTR and then the S2000.

The UK cars have a factory cat 1 alarm, whereas imports don't unless an aftermarket one is fitted.
You also get better non-leather seats in the JDM.
