    How come you didn't go through? Not that I am complaining, I absolutely love the car!
    I was in the throws of selling our business and the buyers pulled out at the last min. I felt crap when I had to tell Rob I could not go through with the deal. He is such a nice guy. Seemed more concerned for us than selling the car.

      Glad to hear you're all sorted now and in an S2 anyway!

          Great to see another enthusiastic S2 owner they test you constantly but when they're on form they're a blast, I've had mine over 20 years and been through pain and happiness, more pain but still soldiering on with the old beast. Nothing beats that 5 cylinder roar

            Just a quick update. The colour it's LY5T Pelican blue its also got a very comprehensive service history and was supplied new in wales as Tracktor Dave thought. Its spent most of its life in the south, hampshire and Oxford areas with 3 years in Scotland where its now back to spend a long life with me. Will do an in depth post after the weekend once I've had some time to go over the whole car. But so far I'm happy with it.

            Cheers P

                    It happens with these cars. One small job turns into a big job that leads to another small job that turns into a complete restoration

                            Unfortunately these cars need constant attention and empty your bank account frequently ?
