Dont get me wrong, it is no urq either but the character of the car is 'mechanical' it has old school lag, there isn't a huge vanity panel under the bonnet so i can see pipes and wires and harks back to a simpler time before tech really got too polished.
I also just think the shape has aged so bloody well. Parked up, the S2 doesn't look old, it just stands out, it is a classic sillouette. Park it next to a Nissan 200sx or something of the same era and then you see just how well it has aged.
