This high-revving roadster is a dream to own and a scream to drive. Honda S2000 used buying guide:
What isn’t such a cause for laughter is that some time back, you could have picked one up for less than £5000, but you’ll need roughly twice that now to buy a good one. Still, for a car that’s a belly-laugh bout of fun and won’t break the bank – and can now be seen as an investment, too – it all sounds like a reason for celebration to us.“The engine is as revvy as its 9000rpm redline suggests.
If left for too long, a faulty TCT can cause the timing to slip out, with potentially disastrous consequences for the top end. These tensioners are much cheaper if bought online . Pre-facelift 2000- 2003 S2000s can get through oil particularly quickly – as much as a litre for every 1000 miles. As well as regular top-ups, frequent oil changes are advisable – preferably every six months or 6000 miles, whichever comes first.
Also worth knowing: A minor refresh in 2002 introduced suspension mods, more trim options and a GT model that came with a hardtop as standard. A considerable upgrade arrived in 2004. Along with more aggressive bodystyling, LED rear lights and 17in wheels as standard, there were tweaks to the suspension and gearbox in a bid to reduce the car’s twitchiness in the wet and on the limit.
