Loving the S, but a scoob which I have always wanted has popped up for sale, and it would leave about £7k change in my back pocket! :D

Its a specific Type R and they don't pop up that often in a spec which I would buy.

Tempting... but I need to go and have a quiet word with myself!

They are very low volume production! I can go weeks without seeing one.

Jay - there are a couple of nice WRC ones up at the mo, I know one guy who is selling a great V Ltd too. This one is a 5 Type R but one I know of, and seen it come up for sale twice over the last couple of years (seperate owners)

Timing is crap :(

Keep the S2K. How is a scoob going to be any better?

The fact that you will have £7k left over must tell you something ;)


Keep the S2k.

I stumled across a mint RB5 the other day for sale....

It sure does..... S2000's are over priced :lol:

Must admit though yours is nice and the hard top is very individual; have never seen one like that before.. A difficult choice, but i'm sure you'll be happy whatever you decide.

Good luck
