Looks like a very sound base for a project. As I mentioned to you on Facebook (daveargoed there) rear subframe can be repaired if not too bad. Got mine hot dip galvanised too! Lots of good people here and some very knowledgeable. Also a good place to ask for parts. I did a Coupe restoration a while back and covered most things in the thread. Might be worth you having a read. B5nut also did a good thread recently. Older threads sadly often missing their pics.
Enjoy

Hello

I finally pulled the trigger on an S2 this week. Some already know the car (blue one listed on ebay) and there are mixed opinions on it but what ever they may be, it's now mine and I'm looking forward to using it.

The back story on me....
Londoner left my home city some 20 years ago and with my wife started a new life in Scotland. Always a petrolhead and especially group b rally had a string of performance fords and various hot hatches in the 80's and 90's including some I should never have sold, bet you can all say that about a car/bike you have owned. Moved on to two wheels in the late 90's with a real passion for Ducati. Sold all my bikes in 2011 when my wife was pregnant with our 2nd child and got back into cars big time with a string of Maserati.

I needed a good runaround here on Arran and I bought a 2.7t allroad and well that's where the four rings addiction really took hold. I now have several allroads and of course now an S2. Despite having some exotic hi performance cars over the years the arrival of the S2 has really got me excited. That 5 cylinder sound track took me right back to the Kielder forest, waiting in the early morning mist with my late Dad for our first glimpse of the S1. We'll you could hear it ages before it passed by and the sound was more evocative than anything I had ever experienced in my life. I was hooked.
