Still the best

[Hasbeen]

I've now done a few hundred Km in the Honda S2000. It is a really lovely car, & this one with only 27,000Km on it is in as new condition.

I have got used to the quick steering, although it would be better if a little slower, & it's ergonomics are almost as good as the 7. It will putter around like a shopping trolley, with 7 type performance, or change it's temper to be like the 300 BHP+ 8, just by changing your gear change points. It really is great.

However, today was a lovely 27C day, with a nice cool breeze, & no prospect of showers, so of course, when I had to go to town I took the 7. That beautiful seat is so welcoming, when you get in, you are at home. The car just fits.

I think she must have been missing her outings with all the rain, & she pured all the way to town & back.

I did notice all the attention she got, much more than the Honda, or the Peugeot. I must have been used to it before, as I have not noticed for a while.

Yes, the others are nice cars, & the Honda is very quick for such a civilised thing, but none of them can match the Triumph for pure pleasure to drive.

Yes, it's just another car on the road unlike the TR7 that get's the looks. The Integra (a Honda) is more ergonomically designed than the Toyota (three years difference) but while the Toyota's are very simple under the hood (my Dad's Camry was the same way) the Honda under hood is packed with hoses going everywhere and you can't get at anything with out removing 6 other things.
