2002 Honda S2000

Highlights

• A hard to find very honest example with low mileage for the year having averaged less than 5K miles per year

• Full documented maintenance history giving the new owner additional peace of mind

• Great looking SSW 18-inch split rim alloy wheels all with good tyres

The Background

The S2000 was first hinted at by the SSM (Sport Study Model) Honda concept car of 1995’s Tokyo Motor Show. Unusually, for concept cars, the S2000 that appeared in 1999, to coincide with Honda’s 50th anniversary, remained impressively faithful to the SSM. It had lost a cylinder in the process, however. The SSM was a five-cylinder car.

The technical tour-de-force that is the 1,997cc inline four-cylinder DOHC-VTEC F20C engine, remains an eye-opener even 22 years on from its introduction. Peak power of around 240bhp arrives at a spine tingling 8,600 rpm, 400 rpm ahead of the redline. It is no surprise, then, that the F20C engine won International Engine of the Year for 1.8 to 2.2-liter engines five times in its lifetime.

The History

The current owner has been enjoying this blue S2000 for over three years now and admits that the car still puts a smile on his face every time he drives it. Originally acquired as part of a business deal, he admits that he originally planned to sell the car straight on but it very quickly won him round so he kept it.

The car’s combination of awesome, high-revving hero engine, the very easy to deploy electric hood and surprising practicality of the car proved a winning combination for him. It is only now that lack of use has prompted the owner to look for the car’s next lucky owner.

The Paperwork

The all-important fully stamped Honda service history is available with the car as are a host of other documents and accompaniments including two keys, original book pack and invoices and paperwork covering incidental maintenance, MOT’s etc.

The Interior

The interior appears unmarked and presents in very attractive “black on black” with black perforated leather seats and black wool carpets. The dashboard appears un marked and the various switches and gauges all appeared to work as expected.

The digital dash would have been positively space-age back at launch in 1999. It has stood the test of time very well and still appears quite modern and unusual. The 9,000 rpm red line is, of course, hard to ignore and everything seemed to work as expected when we observed the car running.

The car also benefits from a Thatcham Cat 1 Proximity Alarm which not only provides additional peace of mind but may also result in cheaper insurance premiums with certain providers.

The Exterior

Our photographic package backs up how well presented the blue metallic bodywork presents. The bodywork is free from obvious dings or dents and the panel gaps are narrow and symmetrical on all panels. The paintwork is deep and lustrous. There are one or two small areas of paint flaking which are small and noticeable only upon close inspection.

The blue / black hood appears to be in great condition and compliments they metallic blue colourway perfectly. It works very effectively and quickly (under 10 seconds) and we were able to witness its operation during our visit. The SSW, split-rim 18” alloys and contrasting red callipers set this car off perfectly ensuring this S2000 turns heads on a regular basis.

The Mechanics

The VTEC engines in the S2000 were not only lauded back at the car’s launch but have gone on to prove very robust and reliable indeed. Add to this a full and regular service history and you have a car here which is reported to be mechanically excellent.

The current owner has kept up the previous owners’ record of “as-required” maintenance and the car has benefitted from recent expenditure in addition to servicing to include a new battery, two new tyres and a new brake calliper.

The Appeal

We believe that this car represents a lot of sports car for the money. It presents in excellent condition throughout and has that award winning 9,000 rpm VTEC hero-engine at its heart.

Add to that the low mileage, original unmolested condition and full service history and the new owner will have a very exciting car on their hands that has many years of reliable and thrilling service ahead of it.

Come funzionano le offerte massime

Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.

Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.

Anti-sniping

Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.

Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.

Incrementi di offerta automatica

Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.

Ammontare dell'offerta	Incremento
Da £0 a £9,999	£100.00
Da £10,000 a £49,999	£250.00
Da £50,000 a £99,999	£500.00
£100,000 +	£1,000.00

Superamento immediato dell'offerta

Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.

Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.

Offerte massime di pari ammontare

Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.

Pre-autorizzazione

Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.

Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?

Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.

Problema con l'offerta

Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
