    1993 Audi S2 Avant / Nothelle N300

    115,500 miles http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/143051.htm

    This is possibly one of the best known S2 Avants in the UK, being the subject of many magazine articles.

    Initially a VAG UK press car, it was then bought by Paul Harris, the editor of Volkswagen Audi Car magazine ( and later, Audi Driver magazine).

    He had the car sent back to Germany by Scotts of Sloane Square, the Audi main dealer and UK representative for Nothelle engine conversions, for the full N300 conversion to be carried out.

    This car develops a measured 320bhp and 360lbFt of torque - figures which compare exceptionally well with a standard RS2 ( in fact I bought the car to replace my LHD RS2, and this car gives nothing away to it in terms of performance ).

    The brakes are now an uprated S2 set up, as the Alcon replacements provided too many complications with regard to servicing! I don't drive the car brutally enough to make brake fade an issue.

    RS2 springs and anti roll bars are fitted, along with adjustable Koni suspension, and 17" Cup replica wheels fitted with 225 45 tyres.

    Exterior colour is Crystal Silver, and the car is fitted with a genuine RS2 grille / front valance.

    Interior is silver grey, with Jacquard satin upholstery and wood inserts.

    Spec includes air-conditioning, tilt / slide sun roof, through load facility ( ski bag ), luggage cover.

    The car has a full service history, and is taxed and MoT'd ( until September ).


    Due to unexpected redundancy, this car, which is well known on this forum, is for sale for £6950.

      I was just trying to clarify things, as my sales plan ( and price ) changed.
      Apologies for any confusion, but this thread and the Pistonheads one are correct.

        Just by way of an update.......
        The car is still for sale on Pistonheads at £6750, and is booked in for an MoT next week, so will actually be MoTd until September 2008 when sold.
        It has now done 117500 miles!

          Nothelle N300 Avant

          Current state of play...... it's now done 118500 miles and has new tyres and new MoT. It is advertised for £6000.

          http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/143051.htm

          I've been offered a firm £5000 for it, and a "maybe £5500".
          If it's going to go at such a low price, then at least I should give you S2 enthusiasts the option to make me a better cash offer.
          PM me if interested, or call number from Pistonheads ad.
          Cheers
