Balanced handing and that legendary, high-rev VTEC powerplant. The Honda S2000 has become a hot collectable - perhaps, in fact, one of the most clamoured-for JDMs in modern motoring. Now cast your eyes on this one, in the rare Nurburgring Blue Metallic paintwork with a stylish, matching blue leather interior. What a looker!
This S2000 comes complete with a full dealership history with Gatwick Honda. With only 27,105 miles on the clock and a single previous registered keeper, it's led a remarkably peaceful life, free of modification or upgrade. Completely standard examples of the AP1 are rare to come by, so we're expecting plenty of interest for this example.
