Owned since 1997. Totally original, but currently being restored. I'm trying to maintain originality but upgrading parts where appropriate (eg. braided clutch hose). I've also replaced the aging grey carpet with a navy blue set from SJ Sportscars. Since these photos were taken I've had the binnacle leather professionally recoloured in black as when the Aussie sun shone on the original pale blue leather I couldn't see through the windscreen! Coming soon will be an engine rebuild and full respray.

Sorry about the poor pics. They were taken on something called a '35mm' camera and scanned through frosted glass! One pic shows it on Sydney Harbour (dreaming of emulating its S1 cousin perhaps?), and the other during its last days in England prior to emigrating to Australia.

Gday. Do you live in Sydney at the moment? I just bought an S2 and am loving it. If you are in Aus, I'd be interested in hearing about where to go for lotus parts etc, and any events such as club meetings. denzeldude7@hotmail.com
