    S2 Coupe wanted

    Just wondered if anyone knew of any S2 coupes that may be coming up for sale in the next few weeks. I have already had an ABY coupe and just parted with my RS2 which I still regret to this day. I will keep my avatar to remind me of my loss.

    I am after another ABY but would love one that possibly has already had the Porsche front brakes and also a bit more poke. Not too bothered about the colour but have a thing about Pearl White ones but they are as rare as rocking horse.

    Would prefer a later one with not too many miles on it.

    If I can't find a good one I may go for this. http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/348877.htm

          Was that the East side or West side ? You love it

          I hope you was keeping it real as you cruised your pearly white steel through that old stomping ground.

          Was just outside Marlow (couldn't afford it then guvnor) when I bought the S2 in 2001... Some nice B-roads in that area when you escape the commuter town hell that it was and no doubt is to this day. I still remember the woman I saw trundle down the high street in Marlow on a Sunday morning in an electric blue Ferrari 456. She parked up, and walked across the street in her green wellies to buy the Sunday papes ... then toddled off back to brunch with Jeeves & Wooster, a damn good rodgering by the local polo team and lashings of ginger beer....................

            S2 Coupe wanted

            I saw that one on Pistonheads and thought it looked nice the only trouble is Jas11n lives about 10 minutes from here and I would be tempted to turn up in the middle of the night and swap his car for this one and hope he doesn't notice for a while. Why don't you just sell me your one Fat Audi 80 as it looks mint and I love those wheels.

            S2 Driver UK I love the look of the Pearl White ones as I thought it would look good with my mountain bike on the top as it is Pearl White as well.

                  Oh how id love to get my hands on a pearl white ABY - not going to happen unless i visit a respray place. Shame its not quite GTA cruise in, reverse out.



                  Is that a Marin Mount Vision by any chance?

                    S2 coupe wanted

                    I was thinking of buying the Marin and also had a good go on a Commencal Supreme but decided on this at the last minute.

                    It is an Orange Patriot FR and is a total weapon and I love it to bits.

                      Good choice - even if i have just ordered the Marin

                      As good as the RS2?

                      If youve already got an ABY, whats the second one for? If it was me id be getting a cheaper ABY doing a rebuild and respray - then youll end up with your mint ABY

                        Sonic - the Marin has had really good reviews in most of the magazines I have read so I am sure you will enjoy it.
                        I bought this one second hand from a bike shop in Ambleside. The owner only had the bike for a few months and only used it a handful of times. He had even upgraded the front and rear discs to the drilled and vented ones and I have yet to see another bike with them on. The bike was as new with no scratches on it so it saved me a few huundred pound.

                        As for the cars which is what I should be talking about on this forum I don't have any car at the moment so I am keeping my options open for one.
