Picked up the new S2 today,so the V8 conversion will now be done on this one as I have saved it from being "broken further" (thats flying in the face of one of my recent posts isn't it). Will get some pics on tomorrow to see if anyone knows it.

Just a few pics for interest, does anyone know any of its History?
Looks a bit Daunting and there are loads of bits missing but I recently said I was going to convert my S to V8 and must admit I do like the V6 and it would be a shame to Butcher it, however this one would have been broken up for spares so if it gets a new lease of life in whatever form , at leat its another still on the road. Note the motto on the number plate (the spoilers in the bootyikeshehe)If all else fails I will recoup my costs by selling the indicator lense.
