Hi All... quick hello from me, owned two S2s some years ago, and still havent got over it lol ! joined yesterday after puting my old reg no in google .. - and a chap on here from Ireland has the car and was after history !! so joined up so I could reply... how weird is that ?!! ... pleased hes got some details on the car anyhow...

So had the Red S2 and then a met green one .. tempted to get another now as theyre a classic !!

[djh]

Best to get one now as they are disappearing fast

[Rusty]

Do it.

There is so much knowledge about these cars on here now that you'll be able to do anything from a correct restoration through to a 600bhp+ track car and anything in the middle. Even with just a few mods, they're so much better than stock, so you'd be in for a treat

[bilko0795]

Go on treat your self you know it makes sense

[Michael S2]

Do it...

they are getting rare, but there are a few for sale just now.

know how that feels! Would love one again.

[Gazmitchell]

haha i do love the look of the coupe for sure. ive restored various other cars since i owned an S2 .. my last green one had the light beige leather and walnut dash pieces.. it was beautiful. N plate but cant for the life of me remember that reg, will have to see if Ive a pic somewhere. It was only 3/4 years old then and was mint with about 20k on the clock... wish i still had it lol !! went like a rocket for back then.

Stock S2 is in danger of being shown up by most hot hatches nowadays Chipped RS2 spec is a little less exposed though

[Drummer87]

It's how it's driven, catch them out not a chance of keeping up.

S2 chipped holds it own, an rs2 spec chipped I would like a drive in one to see the difference.

You have just described my S2! Does the reg N** GCL look familiar?

[Gazmitchell]

Hi there , iirc the last three prefix letters were different to yours... There was a private plate on it previously .... I've got myself a ragusa on an N now but black leather with wood pieces, but I've a cream leather interior on the way !! I can rebuild her !!!! Lol

My quest to find previous owners continues... Sorry, been watching the apprentice.

Good luck with building the replica.

[Gazmitchell]

replica lol... its alive !! well nearly. from what the car looked like when I bought it to now is amazing . I've virtually g3'd the whole car ! was loads of surface scratches everywhere like it has been driven through a wood ! thought it would need a complete repaint but its come up well with only a few that are visable when you look close, so will deffo do for now.

fixing niggles here and there, rear opening windows and loom installed and new headlining and complete interior in. looking forward to driving it !
