I think it's just had s3 parts put on it when it was restored/resprayed... scuttle panel, petrol cap, ns door mirror are all S3...... it'll be interesting to see what it fetches..... their estimate is top end dealer price really.... I wonder how they arrived at that valuation?

That does look nice. Different colour, too. TWR rear spoiler.

Every time I see the inside of an S2 it's amazing how much nicer the upholstery is than the later stuff :?

FRW is known to us.
It was on ebay in April 2009. The seller then said his dad had done it up in 2001 and dry stored since so that fits.
It was in Brierley Hill then so not far from Hereford (Brightwells). Possibly it didn't sell in 2009 and has remained in store? (I noted reserve not met at the time).

this seller would be better off stripping all his expensive parts of this car and selling them separately then selling the rest of the car as-is.... it started off at 7 grand, it's now 5 and he'll never shift it for that kind of dough.
