I had to face the fact, they are a bloody horrible car to drive.
I loved owning it, polishing it and parking it. It was the driving it at speeds over 30mph and parking.
I love the look of them and do miss not having one but they are so un-refined and I feel are showing there age, not neccessarily in looks, but the ride/drive.

just finding my feet
i took the engine out of it after 3 weeks of owning it
but thats cause i snaped the shell hitting a speed bump at 90ish on a long road that i always used showing a mate how quick my rst was,,,,,,,,,, they started fitted speed bumps that fucking week and was just over halfway down with no signs on the road or the speed bumps
but the engine in me cabrio, got banned , then build a new car and a mate offered me 4500 for me engine and bits so i sold out and bought a cossie

got it standard ..
did shit loads to it ..
spent way too much money on it getting it to handle stop and go
got it running 240 ish bhp with no hassles ..
sold it as i disliked wheelspin ...
specifically when i was trying to overtake things when the road had the slightest sniff of water anywhere near it
was nice to upset cossie owners too as you sat up behind up round donnington
oh how i want it back it was such a fun car
still think it would push my cossie along tho....

First one was on its way to be a weapon- had a small accident with it and it got broke for bits and Tim now has it as the shell was MINTER than MINT
Second one was funnily enough Tims old car- lost my temper with it after having the engine rebuilt and then the gearbox failing... so sold it and it got broke...
Since then I have tried, Golf Vr6- Saph Cos and a Tomcat LOL (well my dads)
Third one yet to be purchased...

you got to love the S2!!!! Takes skill to keep it going round a corner, bank loan for repairs every 3 month, yet can still scare the cossy and scooby owners.
