      It looks like both the avant and the coupe are dangerously close to dyeing out. Especially if people keep breaking them however with out this we cant keep them on the road so its a bit of a tough situation to be in!

        Looks like there is a SORNed 1997 registered coupe as well. Interesting.

          Saw this on another forum. 400 means they are really quite rare (especially tidy ones). I would guess that most of the 400 are accounted for by forum members!

              Does anyone know exactly how many UK S2 coupes 'we' own in total? Think there was a 'what do you own' poll a while ago...

                OK - I have added a poll to this thread... ONLY for UK residents. It closes in 60 days. It is deliberately NOT multiple choice so if there is anyone with multiple answers then post up the difference here. The end result should be a good feel for how many active UK users are on the forum and therefore a proportion of how many of the ~400 cars belong here.

                Many Thanks

                      Given the price of fuel, insurance and tax - all in, I'm starting to understand the appeal of SORNing

                              Shame you can't tax them on a monthly basis, would be great for fix-drive-modify-fix-drive-modify!
