40 Acres, meet Suki

Well, things took a strange twist last week with a colleague deciding he wanted to move on his long term (6 years +) S2000 for something a little more baby friendly. In a moment of mid-recession madness I put it to him that I might be interested...

And so, a few days later and a fresh NCT disc on the screen, Suki the S2000 is outside the door. Santa done good this year.

Early days yet, and I've a lot of driving to do before I can give it a detailed run down on here. I always knew the engine would be great - after all it is one of the best engines ever made. But the gearbox, the chassis, the speed of the rack, the direct action from every control input, everything is setup to let the driver know exactly what's going on while involving them fully in the act of driving. No doubt about it these are special cars, Honda pulled out all the stops to celebrate the companies 50th anniversary with the launch of this car. 

Longer review with more detail to follow, for now here's the first photo taken after getting it home :)
