Wanted - Damn good RS2!

Perhaps it would be easier to say what I don't want......

Modified S2's, RS anything else, etc.

I'm in no hurry but I'm looking for a GOOD RS2. Silver is my last choice, then green, blue and would prefer black.

Total history ONLY with mileage the best side of 80-100k prefered.

Clean engine bay without mods and a wasegate that will come apart when the nuts are removed.

Cost is not the prime motivation - I've just wasted a 1000 mile trip to view a £20k example which turned out to be worth about £13k as it stands.

I want a good useable example which will run for 5k miles a year without needing any special care.

Anyone???.........

Hi, I have a LHD RS2 which I am considering selling. Owned it for ten years and love it. Just turned 162,000 km. Black with Alcantara. Every option except cruise control. Spare set of winter tyres on alloys. Chipped to 374 h.p. before I got it and trouble free. Economical as well as quick usually 26-30 m.p.g. Fitted brand new Audi wheels and new tyres about 1000 miles ago. Fitted the upgraded cross drilled discs and calipers about 4000 miles ago. Every Mot since first registered here in 1997. Currently on a cherished number which is available by separate negotiation otherwise, on an "L" plate. Even has a car cover. Let me know if you are interested.

Two here for you, assuming the 2nd one is not the one from your previous wasted journey.

TWARD - Sorry, I should have said RHD only! :oops:

tanoga - The 2nd one is my wasted journey :thumbsdown:

First one looks interesting - didn't know it was available in Red. £25k would need to be more than exceptional - truly concourse in fact, which I doubt this one is. Also notice the pictures are from Nov2005 so that isn't the best start to the search. :?

Edit: Just off the phone with the guy selling the £25k motor....... Interesting,........ but so was the other one a week ago :roll:

Red in the UK is a very rare colour, there is also one for sale in Sussex and a chap on the s2forum has one. That car is top money but im loving the badges:)
