Customer Car Gallery: Harvey’s Modified Honda S2000 GT
Everyone, meet Harvey's modified Honda S2000 GT. The car contains a 2.0 litre engine which currently runs at around 249BHP. The car has undergone many modifications, mainly in respect of its appearance, as opposed to power. However, as many of you will be aware, the S2000 engine is one which doesn't really require much modification work at all, if any.
Here at Safely Insured, we have the honour of insuring this eye-catching piece of design and engineering. We also got the chance to speak with Harvey who answered some questions for us regarding his car, his passion for cars and his plans for the future...

Has the power within your car increased from when you initially bought it, to now?
The Stock power of my car is 240BHP however my car is currently running at 249BHP.
Do you plan on attending any car shows with your car this year?
I plan on attending a few car shows this year. In particular, the Japanese car meets at Ace Café in London.
Do you have any plans to add more modifications to the car?
At the moment there are no plans to further modify the car. I got married 2 years ago and now have a daughter; therefore I'm looking for a Family car. I will keep the Honda S2000 GT however and use it as a track day car. I'll also strip out the interior completely, to reduce any excess weight.
