    Apologies Jamo, a bit new to the forum business, got a bit confused with the menus and posted again in error trying to correct the first.

      And my old Ruby red one!
      Id be buying it back if I had the cash

      As for mileage, forget that, its not that important on an S2 as long as its been looked after properly.
      Rust wise, they all go in the same places, front wing bolt to the bumper and under the rear wiper

          Yes, if I knew then what I do now I would have bought your car Dest. I think mine is about to bankrupt me

            Low mileage is overrated. My 96k avant is far worse condition than my 150k coupe.

            Service history + loving owner > low mileage anyday.

                ne used everyday i would see as a distinct bonus in all honesty...these cars hate to be stood for extended periods, at least in my own experience, when they are used daily they don't leak, run better and perform reliably...match it to a decent shell, evidence of pampering and the mileage aspect can be largely ignored.

                I would argue that there's probably a good few filling that brief....if you want turn-key motoring, this is the wrong car, its old and it will need time and attention
