Valuation advice

It'll take me a month or so to get the paint done and OliverBeamont is looking for a nice S2 coupe... Then of course you're not going to see any more posts on this thread, are you Paul?[;)]

Have you thought about a Lotus Esprit turbo. Very light, very fast and pretty good handling.
Saying this though- not sure if the Lots Of Trouble Usually Serious applies to this model.
 
Which mag is the RS2 in? I haven't seen it. There are a surprising number available for a car that maybe has only 90 RHD examples still remaining.

I have considered an Esprit Turbo in the past, but not this time around. I quite like the idea of something practical as well as fast that can take garden waste to the tip and be fun on a trackday if required (not at the same time though!).

I also just realised I can possibly stretch to the earliest V8 M5's. They are saloons however.

The RS2 is in the latest Porsche 911 & Porsche World. I do not have a copy to hand but it is on a left hand page in the top left corner on its own, quite easy to miss if you are not looking for an Audi in a Porsche mag..
 
Fen,

check out the RS2 thread in the General disscussion area, makes interesting reading. Have you thought about an S3? Much newer but around the same price, good space inside, pretty fast and shoud be a bit nimbler in the handling department. Might be a bit cheaper to run as an everyday car by all acounts too.

What a coincidence!

I have been out in one as a passenger - I liked the ride, but I do like it knobbly - and the seats are superb. I've never been in a 330 Touring, but please... that's hardly going to be the same.

I have thought about an S3. I've always considered them the thinking man's Impreza and the connoiseur's TT. I've never wanted a TT and I've done the Impreza thing before. A reasonably quick (270bhp if chipped) hatch doesn't compare with a 315bhp estate, although they do have even better seats. I've also considered an S4 Avant which is the same money too, but both the S models are still falling in value but the RS2 has stabilised.


Edited for a typo that made me look even ficker than normal
