I'd be taking StickerPaul up on his offer, mate. And if you don't like it I'd consider buying it off you.

Get rid of the S1 anyway, it's stunning but you're just not a bufty boy at heart..

Its a toughy

S1 is stunning from the piccies ive seen in the past but there is just summit about a nice quick saph that has a hold of you ...............

Good fun hooligan machine that if done right should be reliable =Saph

Id love a S1 myself to enjoy a sunday drive but would be exactly the same .................. wanting a quick saph for a blast



Fuck it .........Saph saph saph saph

A stunning as the S1 is, if your not enjoying it i'd sell it. Im sure it would be different if you lived down south, somewhere with decent weather in which you could enjoy it most Sundays - just not the same up here is it?!

A tidy 2wd/4wd Saph would be awesome, and im sure with Andy's tinkering it would be a belter.

You'll be mad to sell that S1. Id rather save up for a while and get saph. That S1 is just to mint to let go of. You'll regret it imho.

could you beg /steal/ or borrow some garage space off a mate /family and park up your s1 disable it,and go get your saff,drive that for a while and see how you feel in a few months time,you may change your mind again after a while with the saff.

Keep the series 1,

SAFFS are crap, engineering is shite . Ok they can be fast but after a good thrashing another engine rebuild will be needed. They also look shite, really have dated in a BAD way. The series one is dated but looks more like a classic car ...

I would keep the series one if its in good condition. Be worth a few bob in acouple of years 2
