    Thats handy to know, I do miss my 20v quattro sport and the look of it when I was following it in a transit van with someone else driving

    tbh dest if you can sort out storage you can do bits at a time, that would be the best way to do it. Parts are easy to come by if you know people

      Can i ask Mr. S2central.net...

      To look at the differences between a 2.6 v6 on an M plate and the s2...pretty please

      Drive train mostly.

      There are interior diffs which are more strange, seemed to be 2 styles in the B4 chassis...door card wise.

        when you say two different types of door card is that the one's with the pockets that on the earlier one's just go along the bottom of the card and the version that swoops round and goes up the card slightly?

            i´m also loving limos, especially this one from a friend with RS4 B7 19 inch wheels:



            MY:94 S2 Sedan with Carbon, passengers airbag, electric adjustable quattro-satin seats, seat heatener, speed cruise control, RS2 instruments, rs2 steering wheel, big reds in the front, and many many more nice things...



            PS: Also a sedan with S2 optic but V8 engine from the S6Plus would be nice...

                    personally if id find a good conditioned 80 B4 quattro,i would swap all over in an instance and probably use something like a diesel on the s2 avant for the misses to use back and forth the supermarket.
                    But you need funds and time for that so...

                      I've a mate who lives in swindon who I speak to every so often but is hard to get hold of at times currently has:

                      9x large garages full of type 85 spares
                      15 moted and running type 85's from coupe's, quattros and saloons.

                      Its just when I get to speak to him to see what he's got, he buys them as he says they are good investments for the future as I tried asking if he wanted to sell one before. Odd bits he don't mind but think he wants to keep all the cars.

                      plus i've just been offered a swap for a type 85 coupe quattro

                        Your mate is a shrewd man... I practically gave away my old Typ 85 Coupe GT for 200 quid about five years ago. Brilliant paint, refurbd wheels, no rust to speak of, recent clutch, uprated brakes, Sebring zorst and h/d lighting upgrade. LOved that old car but ran out of space and energy for it.

                        Same car now would fetch nearly 2k cos of the fact it was red and the 'ashes to ashes' factor. Dammit Beavis...

                          Nice idea, but mad !

                          Dest , you'd be off your head to break your Avant. It's pretty much perfect now.

                          The heartache and grief, a tight budget, together with no garage would mean you'd wish you'd never started it. While you'd be doing it, you'll have no 5 cylinder turbo to drive when you want to.

                          With petrol the way it is, if one worries about petrol costs it doesn't make sense to have an S2 and be spending money on upgrading its engine performance?

                          I know it's always fun to fantasise, but I can't see this idea as being viable, sorry to be so harsh, but ....

                          Anyway, this is all Jas's fault with his brilliant Sooty project and that factory photo of the red S2 Saloon half way through the thread.

                          Will you do a S2 saloon register?

                          Going to get my coat before I'm banned for being too aggressive.

                          Post written just in case you were serious?

                          Kind regards.

                            Like I said, IF I had a place to store things while it was done, I would be VERY tempted, but until I am in that position, its just my mind working overtime...

                            I was thinking today about it alot, and came to the conclusion that I would be better off selling mine and buying the red 90 saloon for sale on here with RS2 setup.... believe me, if I thought I could sell mine for the money needed to buy it, it would be up for sale right now!

                              I see !

                              Great, so you're safe from a mental health point of view. It 's just that your Avant is pretty much "spot on" at present , especially after Steve's work on it.

                              If my two looked half as good, I'd be well pleased. Both 95 Avants in the same colour as yours, so more than a passing interest in yours.

                              Kind regards.

                                Yeah my last coupe gt went to sal to break in exchange for aload of spares for the s2. I had the space to keep it but tbh I want to sort the s2 out first.

                                I got the coupe gt as I was going to build a ur q out of a shell I know of. Might still do that at some point.

                                I am trying to get to go down and see all these cars my mate has
