    Strange request

    Hi Guys,

    I posted on the S2 FB group quite a while back and didn't get much of a response. I was wondering if anyone in the Birmingham area would be kind enough to take me for a run in their S2. The reason behind this is because my late step father had a 3B in Pearl White from new - was a H Reg. I believe when he sold it in 1996 it ended up in London. He passed away a few years back and every weekend my Mum and him would pick me up in it and drop me home on the Sunday. I myself bought a TT Quattro Sport, as I felt it was the unofficial replacement for the S2 - the S5 is in theory though.

    I am also a fairly active member on the TT forum, same username if anyone wants to make sure.

    Thanks for your time taken to read my post.

      That would be awesome if that was possible, I am going to my mums on Thursday to trawl through her photo albums to find a pic and the plate - it was H and ended in FEA, it was purchased from Quicks when new. Had the carbon interior, and none leather seats with Quattro on them. I remember every winter him telling me a story about snow and the diff lock button as I always wanted to press it lol - I was 8/9 at the time

          Get yourself to ADI and there will be a whole load of S2s and someone will surely take you for a spin. If I'm there with my coupe I certainly will although it's not quite a standard 3B any more..

            ADI looks interesting, Castle Coombe isn't it? Hopefully I could tag along with someone from the Midlands

                              Come to ADI if you like S2's - it's the biggest turn out of the year and if you get lucky you could end up on track in one giving it some beans

                              Do you remember the registration number of your fathers coupe?
