Hi I have just done the deal for a red 3MPS and will pick it up as soon as it has my number plate. Have chopped in my beloved Honda S2000 as part of the deal. Please tell me I have done the right thing!!

Thank you for the kind replies..........and the welcome.
It's a Mk2, just 6 months old, ex dealer demo with 1000 miles on the clock. I've never been in such a well spec'd car. And I just love the acceleration - ideal for driving out of trouble on the M25!! Wonder how long I will keep my clean licence???

The S2000 and the MPS are two very different cars in my opinion, both very good, but you'll have a completely different driving experience.

Lots of interesting views - thank you, guys.
If you happen to see a small grey-haired middle-aged lady petrolhead blasting around the highways of the UK, please give me a wave!! You'll know it's me!!
