Wheeler Dealers, the popular automotive show, returns with its fourteenth season and the ninth episode focuses on the iconic Honda S2000. The show features Mike Brewer and Ant Anstead, who have a passion for cars and take on the challenge of finding, buying, restoring, and reselling some of the most amazing automobiles.

In this episode, the duo set out to find a Honda S2000, a two-seater roadster that was produced by Honda from 1999 to 2009. Known for its high-revving naturally aspirated engine and exceptional handling, the S2000 quickly became a cult classic among car enthusiasts.

After an extensive search, Mike manages to find a 2003 S2000 in Los Angeles. The car has 100,000 miles on it, but it's in good condition and has been well-maintained. The duo buys the car for $10,000 and brings it back to their workshop in Huntington Beach.

Once the car arrives at the workshop, Ant gets to work on the S2000, doing a thorough inspection and diagnosing any issues it may have. He finds that the car has some minor issues, including a worn clutch, a leaking valve cover gasket, and a faulty power steering pump.

Ant then starts with the restoration, starting with the engine. He replaces the spark plugs, the timing chain tensioner, and the valve cover gasket. He also replaces the clutch and flywheel, which were in need of replacement due to normal wear and tear.

Next, Ant moves to the suspension, replacing the shocks, springs, and sway bars with high-performance parts that enhance the car's handling and responsiveness. He also installs new brakes and rotors, improving the car's stopping power.

Finally, Ant turns his attention to the exterior of the car. He replaces the worn-out convertible top and gives the car a fresh coat of paint, restoring it to its original factory color. He also replaces the cracked windshield and installs a new set of wheels and tires, giving the car a new look.

After the restoration is complete, Mike takes the car for a test drive and is amazed by the difference the restoration has made. The car handles like a dream, the engine is responsive, and the brakes are sharp. Mike notes that the car has been completely transformed from a worn-out, tired old car to a high-performance roadster.

To test the car's performance, Mike takes it to Willow Springs raceway, where he gives it a real workout on the track. The car performs exceptionally well, showcasing its exceptional handling and power.

In the end, the duo puts the car up for sale, hoping to get a good price for it. Their hard work and dedication pay off, as they sell the car for more than double what they paid for it, making a substantial profit.

Overall, the episode is an exciting and entertaining look into the world of car restoration and resale. It highlights the passion and expertise of Mike and Ant and their commitment to restoring these iconic cars to their former glory. Fans of the show, car enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the history and restoration of classic cars will enjoy this episode of Wheeler Dealers.
