I had an A4 for 3 years, the Mrs fell pregnant a month after I chopped it in for a Type-R. Doh!! I made her sell her Clio 182 in favour of a focus C-max rather than give up my fun.

Went to the honda garage on sat. No more S2000 on display.
They used to have a NSX that wasn't for sale but that's gone as well.
The salesman was pretty down about it.
He said 2 other people came in this week and he's trying to find cars for them.
Apparently he can't find a dealer S2000 anywhere.

Too fat or too tall? Bare in mind Clarkson got in at 6ft 5 and he's not very thin

PS SuperZ If you are serious about new ones for 14k, I'd like to know where, I might buy another (although can't see it when I got 12k for a 4.5 year old one)

Too tall. At 6 foot 4 my knees were wedged against the steering wheel. And the sales chick did not know how to move the steering wheel up. And I could not work it out on the spot either.

Also the top of my head was quite a bit above the roll over bar. I can imagine it being impossible to fit with the roof on.

I am the same height as Clarkson but we must have different leg/torso proportions cos he can get into stuff I can't - I had same debate with Churchy - he can fit in stuff I can't and he's taller.

I stopped off at Milton Keynes Honda on Friday, and they had one of the white brand new special editions on the forecourt. £26K though, which is a lot for the special edition when you could have got a regular new one for £18K a few months back.
