I still have the wheels in my sig that I havent got round to advertising yet.

Although in pictures, they DO NOT do it justice, and everyone who saw the car in the flesh liked the look of em when they were there (myself included).

My favourite ever S2 I saw years ago was immaculately clean, white, had 16" OZ Super T's on and was sitting nice and low with a 3.5" Scorpion tailpipe poking out the back. Looked absolutely perfect

Did you buy it off a guy over Oxford way? Good to see the car has made it's way back on to PF! I sold it about 14 months ago, when it was one owner from new. It was totally standard when I bought it from the original owner, before I sold it it looked like this:



It then went near back to standard, and it's now gone back again now you have it, lol You have a good car there, very nice example. I do miss the car from time to time, glad it's back in an enthusiasts hands

I really like multispokes on a S2. I think they set the car off really well.

Yeah got it from oxford way, he said he got it from a guy called andy in southend, he didnt realy have it long, he was about 40 and his wife told him he had to sell it or he was out, kind of thought it was a story untill i went in the house to sort out cash/paperwork what an atmosphere and she snatched the money of him with a dirty look even i was scared.7

Payed 3600 for it, was up for 4250, got all new samcos on, brand new from ford standard s2 wheels, cossie brakes up front discs on back, underside all painted and polybushed list goes on its a lovely car and always a bonus when the car was owned by an enthusiast.

Did you do the rear disc conversion as id like to know what they are off as due for replacement very soon and wheel bearings are starting to nag at me any info would be very grateful
