Wow. Maybe this got mentioned elsewhere?
I know how it is (as in how the used car world is), its getting older etc. I guess this will see S2000s creep up in price now over the coming years
Just cant imagine ever paying that for a rusty old Honda. Had my eye on S2000s for a while now deciding I'd like to own one, even at £13k they seem a bit overpriced, I'd sooner buy an FD2 or just go buy a K20 Elise actually.
I've noticed DC5's are also on the up now, prices seem to be up ~£3K+ over a year ago, there is NO way I could bring myself to may above £10k for what is essentially a s
tty old rusty hatch back and the going rates for a nice one are well above that now

A 14000 mile S2000 isn't going to be rusty is it...
Different strokes for different folks, and clearly a mint low miler S2000 isn't for you, doesn't mean it isn't for someone else though does it? Market dictates the S2000 is becoming more desirable (prices on the up).
Could well be, what if its lived in Scotland for 10 years?Different strokes for different folks, and clearly a mint low miler S2000 isn't for you, doesn't mean it isn't for someone else though does it? Market dictates the S2000 is becoming more desirable (prices on the up).
And you're right. Just in awe at prices recently
Nearing 2 years on I'm sat thinking about the s2000 yet again and found my own thread. My sensible 3.5 year old, 22k mile Ford Fiesta has shat its gearbox on the M1 so was going to repair then sell it and get something interesting while a GR86 shows up next year, I think the S2000 is the only car I think I am interested in now that I haven't had already but they are aging to a point where I'm not sure I could be arsed to run one any more. Just in case I end up losing an engine or gearbox on the M1 again...
I get the impression the lower end of the market might have stayed somewhat sensible since this thread began, this at 150k miles for £12.5k tempts me for example - https://www.pistonheads.com/buy/listing/13606130
Appreciate inflation has happened, but the lower end of the market does seem to have stayed sensible and didn't get caught up in the silly rises like the Integra DC5 or FD2R Civics did.
And the top end generally still sitting between the 18-25 mark. They don't seem to shift at that end either? Maybe a sign of the current economy
Shame you cant go test drive these any more, I loved my DC5 but unsure if Ill like the S2000.
