I need

[Acidburn]

no 145 - I thought it was now two spare

[S2central.net]

@Jas - I think the only thing grower larger is the level of your OCD illness... Man you are hoarding some stuff !

[Acidburn]

Problem is that with stuff going NLA how long is it before half of us have to start doing that? think jas has just got a head start on us all (and soon will own all the spares at this rate )

[Jas11n]

no 145 - I thought it was now two spare

See no 25 and 99 The one I bought of Andy (andyg plym) went in the TDi.

@ S2central.....
No more crazy than spending obscene amount of cash of go faster stuff for the S2. You know the stuff, stroked and caressed blocks, pistons and rods made from diamond, turbo's the size of a small african country, reversed upside down and inside out manifolds made from cast unobtanium, and all that malarky. You get the picture.

If I had to sell all these spares, I'd 100% get at least my money back, but more than likely return a handsome and tidy profit.
All that list above has set me back no more than £700 over the space of 5-6years.

As Pete says, it's all about saving for the day they go NLA, which they will, as sure as the sun rises and sets.

Jase..

LOL Jase knows something we don't or he's on the ball.

S2's are being forced into extinction by the obsolete god

[S2central.net]

@Jas - I know where you are coming from... Maybe I too should devote some attic space to preserving the legacy of the S2.

I've got some odds and ends collected over the years, just not making the concerted effort you have.

Friggin Audi won't care if these cars disappear off the streets, but their humble owners clearly have other plans.

[Jeffer]

Ow dear. I think I can compete with Jas on the list
i've got a 6 meter shipping container with racks full of stuff. And a garage/workshop full of stuff. I'm about to put everything in an excel sheet because I find myself regularly surpised with the stuff I find over there Or that I buy parts that were collecting dust already in the workshop.........

[Jas11n]

Just remembered

153/ 5 spark plug connectors (Steve's group buy)
154/ Hall sender without bracket (Knightrider Steve's group buy)
155/ Brand new ignition barrel (the cast ally bit with the steering lock in it),
156/ New ignition key barrel (with reader coil)
157/ Huge assortment of lock tumblers, was able to sort above barrel for use with existing keys,
158/ New ignition switch (for 1994 onwards cars)
159/ Used ignition switch (pre 1994, for use on my TDi if needed)
160/ New Coupe drivers door barrel (with heater element for winter pack)
161/ Two boot trims for Coupe, part just above boot light and wraps around boot catch - already NLA)
162/ The ribbed boot trim, sits above rear clusters (already NLA)
163/ Used rear wheel arch liners (already NLA)
164/ New front wheel arch liners,
165/ New Coupe passenger door barrel
166/ Spare alloy boost gauge plate/mount for use in centres vents (two spare now after removing boost gauge from TDi)

I think I'm going to have to do the same and put them in a spreadsheet Jeffer, good idea

As you can see, I plan on keeping both my cars for some time yet. If I do sell, I'll be able to shift the parts on, or let them go with the car to help it's next owner.

[4WheelDrifter]

I'm glad I'm not the only one that gets surprised by some forgotten parts. I thought about making a parts list too, but I don't really have the time, what with 6 VAG group cars in the family and parts bins for each chassis group.

[S2central.net]

@Stu - you are worse than Jas then - LOL - start a new forum for 'car part hoarders anonymous' or something (or nuthin).

[quattrodude]

O.C.D or what JAS11N and i thort i was bad
