Spent far too much of 2012 in hotels or in transit to be honest. Something like 18 weeks of at least 1-2 nights away and crap hotel wifi mean i've not been on much and when i'm home i am playing Dad catch up
unfortuntely will be home for less than a week before i'm off for another 3 days in Helsinki
business travel is not all its cracked up to be i can assure you...this place on the other hand...legendary

Problem is this won't get any better....
I've seen the same thing happen in the MK2 Golf market... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/170915843669
So much has been dropped by VAG that used parts are now fetching silly money...
BUT worse than that Classic Parts from Germany (or Audi Heritage) are just as bad for keeping bumping up their parts that have been in stock for over 20 years... They seem to think that they can add 20 years worth of storage prices on to the parts...
I can't see this getting better for S2 or UR owners - they know they have a "Captive Market" and seem to be willing to exploit it as much as they can...

13th on the list? It's a good job I'm not superstitious.
I do more lurking these days rather than posting, mostly for fear of getting abuse for not finishing my S2.
But I also have it for keeps, so I feel I still have plenty if time. 
Also, a high post count is not proof of knowledge. Just look at Jamo.
