As per title, is there much difference here? I'm looking to make this transition but with fuels prices soaring I don't want there to be any nasty surprises when it comes to replacing parts... Would appreciate feedback from anyone who have gone from EP3 to S2000.

Cheers

They're both going to be very similar I would have thought

The only real difference will be insurance what with the S2000 being group 20 and the Civic 17.

Road tax and insurance will be the biggest differences

I went from S2000 to EP3 back to S2000 and didnt notice much change in running costs. Servicing is about the same too.
Mine is up for sale at the mo as I need a family wagon now as the car never gets used. Sorry for the plug. :0)

Nothing if i can't sell the car. If i do i just want a CRV or something similar so i can fit camping gear etc in the car without overloading it.
