Yes, it's pretty spot on. Needs a little TLC bodywork wise and a shampoo inside. Couple of trim bits need replacing, black grille when I find one and clear indi's. I will look at lowering it at some point but am just working out what is 'urgent' first. I am also going to transplant the Elipsoids from Blondie Cool

It is great to have an S2 back, you deffo forget the performance of these things Very Happy

Right, spoke to the garage. He has replaced the thermostat that hasn't solved the issue and has checked the system. The rad is fine and has normal flow. He thinks it is (best case) the water pump or (worst case) cylinder head gasket. not a massive cost issue but let me know. He said he can't really tell until he starts pulling it apart.

I was going to rip the lump out and make an S2 Saloon Very Happy

I had a look a look around for a new set of alloys for the old girl and decided on the Cabby Final Editions. I think they are crisp and fresh and suit the shape. Anyway, here they are



And I gave the engine bay a tidy up as it was a little grimey

This is now SOLD. A nice gent came to collect it this morning and will be a project far bigger than I would ever have been able to do.

I look forward to seeing it on show stands and track days in the future.

A sad day for me though, I am gutted to have let her go Crying or Very sad
