    My first car

    Just got my lisence and my very first car . It`s s2 in an original condition, no modifications at all. I am going to paint it all over but I havent decided the colour yet, something special. And of course new rims for summer those are good for winter. Feedback and new ideas are always appreciated.

    Ps. My first post here and sorry for my bad english.

    I wish I had a S2 for my first car, seconds thoughts, I probably wouldn't be here now if I had.

            That paint doesn't look too bad at the pics so why a respray?

              Oh, are the tail lights different style from each other?

              Great looking car, though!

                Mikkoh,

                Just seen the pics of your car. You dont wanna re-spray that colour. It's the bestest colour S2 money can buy Anyone who owns that colour car are and have to be to (fact that its the same colour car as my one has nothing to do with my thought and opinions :mischeif: )

                  Welcome Mikkoh

                  Probably a good thing the S2 is my fourth car:
                  1st car (35bhp): span it (with passenger ), slid it, two wheel cornering (I'm told), regular take off (great hump-backed bridge where I was driving at the time), hole in the floorpan where you could watch the road going past and a subframe so rotten it was more use as compost.
                  2nd car (45bhp): span it, slid it, curbed it, broken into three times ("interesting" neighbourhood), kept warping the brakes.
                  3rd car (90bhp): span, slid, curbed, crashed, pretty much everything (brakes, exhaust, clutch, etc) needed replacing.
                  4th car (S2 bhp): taking it (relatively) easy - like it too much.

                  Ck.
                  Apart from on the track :mischeif:
                  Shocked, exhausted, hosed, bushed, dumped, chipped, mounted, filtered, gauged, packed, intermittantly wiped and braked. I mean broken. Now, about the car...

                    Some reasons to re-spray it: http://www.mikkohakala.dns2go.com/Audi%20S2/paint/
                    and the another reason is that my father owns a part of a big painshot so its free for me I dont know about the tale lights I asumed that those are original ones.

                          Ok I see. It really needs some fresh paint.

                          You'll have to take out the windshield to get it painted properly, otherwise the top of the screen is quite impossible to get fixed.

                          I'd keep the original colour. It's quite nice when it's fresh. My friend has that colour.

                          Left tail light is MY 91, right one is later type. Search evidence for accident from the RH rear corner behing the boot linings...
