1996 S2 Coupe for sale

[Martin62]

The time has come to part with my S2 after almost 7 years of enjoyable ownership.

The details are:

1996 Audi S2 Coupe 127,000 miles
MoT, June 2018
Ragussa Green with Black leather upholstery
Electric Recaro front seats
Black roof lining, carbon trim, opening rear windows, electric glass sunroof
Cruise control, Air conditioning, remote locking
Plasma gauge faces
Boost gauge
Original Audi overmats with Original Audi rubber overmats for winter
Toad alarm fitted with instruction leaflet and 2 fobs

Since buying the car in 2011 I have refurbished both sub frames and installed solid aluminium sub frame bushes and new Audi supplied stretch bolts
New Diff and gear box mounts fitted
Front wishbones have Powerflex bushes and the rears have OEM rubber
Improved track rod adjusters also fitted

All drop links have been replaced as have the ARB bushes, powerflex on front and OEM rear.

New sun roof seal fitted

Rear shock absorbers were replaced in June 2017 as were the top mounts

I have performed all servicing myself using either Audi or Mann parts

The car is in need of an oil change service now (time based) and a timing belt change for the same reason.

I will perform the oil change prior to sale

I have the full book pack, an original sales brochure, price list and an ABT C5 brochure too as well as an edition of Volkswagen Audi Car with an interesting article ‘S2 Coupe Shows it’s Muscle’

I have 2 keys and the tab that comes with them. I assume it’s for the immobiliser ?

With the exception of the tasteful improvements mentioned, the car is completely original. It has number plates with the supplying dealers information (Newton Abbot Audi) and matching rear window sticker and tax disc holder.

I have receipts going back many years for servicing and replacement parts.

The reason I am selling is that I also have a 20v Quattro Coupe as my daily and I don’t have the time any more to give them both the attention they need and deserve (I’m selling the 20v too) so I need one, more modern car.
The attached photographs taken in mid 2012 are the best I have, if a little artistic (My daughter was studying photography at the time) and can be considered as a true representation of the condition of the car

I’m asking £15k for it which compares well with others for sale especially as my car has some nice options.

As yet I have not advertised anywhere else as I would prefer the car to go to a forum member.

PM me with any questions or comments.

Thanks for looking at my advertisement.

Look at the pictures and the spec, I think I'd be wanting closer to £20 for that! I don't remember one that looked that good, with such a high spec coming up for sale in a long time.

Good luck with the sale.

[Error404]

Won't be around long at that price. Looks like the nicest "original" car I have seen for sale in a long time.

[Nuvo]

I hope its sold to a genuine enthusiast rather than a dealer.

[Error404]

Agree, if a dealer gets it it'll be up for £22k next week...

[rustybullethole]

Not being negative but If you`re being truly honest about the car I think you should put pictures of the car as it is now and not 5.5 year old pictures, a lot can change in that time on an older car.

Martin GLWS this looks an amazing example and with prices these days this will go very quickly nice colour combo to

[Martin62]

Regarding the comments on the age of the photos, if there had been a break in the dreadful weather I would have taken some current ones. I hope I will have the opportunity to do so this weekend and I will post them straight away. Recognising the concern, perhaps any interested parties would like to wait to see these before progressing. Since those photos were taken, the car has covered around 10k miles from memory and has always been garaged.
cheers,
Martin

I think most people will take your description and the photos you've uploaded as a great indication of the car and it's condition. I'm sure you would've mentioned anything significantly different from the photos and extremely small blemishes would probably be difficult to pick up on photos anyway. I'm sure whoever buys it will do the eye test regardless.
I once had a ragusa green S2. Not quite as good condition as yours!!!
Good luck with the sale.

[mackenzie50]

Irrespective of age of pics, Ragusa green is not an easy colour to come across well in photos- it is however, in the 'flesh'...absolutely beautiful...GLWS

[arranstone]

Can you pm me your number please, very interested in your s2.

[s2driveruk]

Great looking coupe, paint looks stunning and that ragusa green looks amazing in the sun glws

[jubjub]

^^^ Agreed.. Lovely looking colour Ragussa. Looks a very good, well kept example....

[Fat Audi 80]

Come on lads someone buy this and benchmark a decent S2 Coupe at £15k +

It looks like a lovely example, GLWS.

[quattro estate]

Can you say where you are, down south or up north.
thanks
