    I love my car

    Went down to the British Grand Prix this wk end, filled the tank to the brim and took it nice n easy, keeping it to 70 ish, nearly all motorway miles but never the less i'm quite impressed, it got there and back on one tank, with a bit to spare and returned 31mpg.
    Also the camp site was very muddy and cars were getting stuck everywhere, but with 4 wheel drive and a diff lock I had no problems at all,
    All in all I had a great wk end and the old girl did me proud, I love my car

    You've obviously got this S2 ownership thing all wrong.

    It should be sitting in the garage, engine out, going nowhere but sucking money from your wallet and patience from your soul.

    Never mind 31mpg?! There's obviously something wrong there. Shouldn't be getting any more than 15.

    Try harder.

        I took mine up the silverstone on the saturday and sunday as well... it made light work of the boggy fields and getting out was minimal fuss.

            Saw a women get completely set in a VW Toerag (thats what I call them anyway)

            Several young guys were filming it

            I was in the same car park in my focus but managed fine really, just let the clutch up on tickover and straight out.

            A bit of common sense goes a long way.

                      I love my S2 too, problem is it f****** hates my guts at the moment. Maybe she will feel better when I put the engine back in

                            Stick with it boys, I got mine perfect and running really well then sold it! I do miss it but theses cars at the age where thing are failing not that you don't know this already. As for 31mpg!!! My GOD, I never bothered about that cause if I did I'd a never a bought a S2 ha ha
