I think you may be wrong.

Some one with S2000 knowledge please confirm.

JDM S2000s have a small centre tray called a 精子トレイ

Come again?

I had JDM wheels on mine; the slits go the other way.

Plus, how much did the insurance increase by after you moved from the slow preludes.

On the front I did because its got the facelift bumper on, back didnt, look at the photo where it is taped to my rear window.

As for the engine, JDM is 248 bhp, UKDM is 238 bhp or something.
However mine has the UKDM engine in, so I'm not sure what is going on. When I get the logbook back I'll see what that says. Everything apart from the engine points JDM; age, Japanese on the sun visors, fuse boxes, fuel filer cap and other locations, taped over kph on the dash and retrofitted fog lamp. But other things do not, like the engine and the lack of Japanese on the dials.
I'll have to dig deeper.

My insurance went up by £80 for 12 months

Today I fitted my new Bridgestone potenza adrenalin RE002 front tyres to match the back and I also got the alignment done.
What a difference! I also drove it for the first time in the dry, unbelievable! Bearing in mine it's completely standard it's like it's on rails, obviously I didn't push it too hard

but it had soo much grip and it is so precise!

In my opinion, if you don't need the extra seats go out and buy yourself one!

That is the correct conclusion!

The car has faaar more grip in the dry; obviously you'll need to scrub in the tyres & build yourself up slowly.

Sounds like your lump blew & was replaced by an EUDM unit. The difference is the thickness of the head gasket, to reduce the CR for our crap petrol. TBH, unless you use an octane improver, the JDM engine is NFU over here, because the knock sensor would otherwise just retard your timing accordingly.

The car is incredibly precise and rewards accurate, smooth inputs. Just don't drive when you're knackered, hung over, generally not with it...
