Hi all, thought id introduce myself- im Ross from the lake district Uk. Joined up in the hope to buy bits, ask questions, and just generally benefit from all your knowledge. I dont drive an S2, although i really would love to one day. But i do have a really tidy 80 avant tdi, which im currently sourcing parts to put an S2 front end on. I hope you can make an exception and welcome me to the community all the same! cheers ross.

Hey Ross welcome to the forum. I've got some front end parts you might need bumper etc.

Welcome to the forum, like many other members on here I once had an 80 tdi. I've dropped u a pm as
I have some parts that may help

[ross b]

Got bumper with fogs indicators, inner arches, bracket to mount to chassis all for £60 delivered. absolute steal i thought! Just in need of the ellipsoid headlights now, currently trawling through the for sale ads on here at the moment. If you had some for grabs that would be ideal!

Welcome Ross

I'm a newbie myself, but it's all good!

[targus]

Any pictures of your project?

[re2500]

£60 delivered is great for an s2 bumper the headlights I have are non ellipsoid but there if u need them.

PM sent, hadnt seen your message detailing what the headlights were. Ill get some pictures of the old girl soon, she's been in hibernation for a while. Got a scirocco 2.0 tsi also. If anyone knows of/sees any ellipsoid headlights come up for grabs ill bite their hand off!

Hey Ross,

Welcome to the Forum! There's masses of information on here and plenty of folk eager to help I see you work down Lindale way. I go past reasonably often even though I'm based out West. When the beastie is re-built I'll call in and show 'em what a proper Audi looks like (well maybe apart from the R8 that's in the showroom )

You need to get an S2!

Cheers

John

Hiya mate, yeah tell me about it! Love S2's, possible more than RS2's. More understated and stealthy, also more affordable! Still out of my reach just yet though. I WILL own one 1 day. Yeah the showroom R8 was nice, we've just sold a gt spyder for 160k! Got a few nice motors in ATM, with new s8 and s6's as demo's they are ballistic!

Hi Ross,

im from Newcastle origionally so fellow northern monkey o here too

i think i will be honest in saying S2 forum is not all about the S2, but more B3/4/URQ/URs4/6 in general

i had loads of help here, people are mostly nice, and our Audi`s are loved whatever they are!
i had a shonkey white £300 B4 TDi avant lowered with S2 bumpers and trim and loved it even though it looked like it needed scrapped lol
after various Audis, very fast, very slow and very very broken i now own another B4 daily, a vary rare 2.0 16v Quattro saloon and the info i get from folks is second to none, more importantley everyone is HONEST! These lads dont sugar coat it, if your a nob, they say Sean, your a nob lol

someone was breaking a cabriolet in Southend, Essex on ebay (blue one) and wanted £20 each for the headlamps (on saturday evening when i was looking for door cards)

lots of people dont know what they have thankfully!

peace out, and welcome the same as i was welcomed

[Sleeper_Avant]

my black URS4 came from Cumbria come to think of it!

was the fastest and most happy id driven from Cumbria to Newcastle ever lol!

[ross b]

Ah very good, I'm from there originally. Cullercoats. Care to link me that Audi cab u spotted? Thought I'd trawled all of eBay looking! I had no Idea we got valver quattro saloons here

[ross b]

Nice! What age? And how long ago? Will have likely had something to do with the preparation of it if bought thru lake district Audi.
