First shown as a concept car (named the SSM) at the 1995 Tokyo Motor Show, the new S2000 was essentially Honda’s 50th birthday present to itself when launched to the public in 1999.

The S2000 was named after its engine’s displacement, carrying on the tradition from the S500, S600 and S800 roadsters of the 1960s. The S2000 was noted for its high power output, at 124 hp per litre, it was the highest of any naturally aspirated engined car of its day.

Several revisions were made through the model’s lifespan, which are broadly divided into the AP1 and AP2 variants. Production of the S2000 ended in 2009, since then becoming a modern classic, with prices on the rise for good examples.

This very low-mileage S2000 was first registered in September 2005, finished in an attractive shade of Nurburgring Blue with Blue Leather Seats, a rare factory fitted rear spoiler, and factory fitted headrest speakers. Garage-kept  as part of a small classic car collection, the S2000 has been waxoyled to prevent corrosion, which has preserved the underneath of the car in very fine order. The Honda is supplied with a tonneau cover, and has recently been fitted with replacement tyres on each corner. For information, the S2000 meets the current ULEZ emissions standards.

The service history for the car reads as follows:

2005 PDI Fish Brothers Honda, 
2006 Browns Honda (6,465 miles) 
2007 Sports and Prestige S2000 Specialists (10,985 miles)
2008 Sports and Prestige (11,008 miles)
2010 Roger Apew Motor Engineer (13,844 miles)
2013 Roger Apew Motor Engineer (16,286 miles)
2020 Roger Apew Motor Engineer (16,286 miles)

Showing just under 17,000 miles recorded from new, and with an MoT certificate to May 2024 (with no advisories), this is a wonderful driving modern classic which can be enjoyed the whole year around. 

The S2000 will be serviced once more prior to coming to the auction.
