The shell looks knackered, but engine bay looks ok

That'll buff right out (well someone had to say it)

Unfortunately that looks like it was quite a nice one - and the clear indicators suggest an enthusiast had it at least at some point in the recent past.

It does indeed look like a nice one. Sunroof in the boot suggests he was out for an enjoyable summers' day drive when the crash happened, too.

Douglas Valley Breakers - always VERY pricey in my experience. Only plus point is that they usually have S2's in stock, and therefore parts are readily available.

Poor S2...! That makes me feel sad to see another destroyed...[]

They are getting scarce as it is so lets be careful out there...!

Sometimes, I always ring Douglas Valley and Porsch-apart to compare and so far it's been 50:50 as to which has turned out cheapest. That may just be peculiar to the parts I've bought though.

Both Simon Butterworth and DVB are extremely expensive! The only person at DVB to ever offer a competitive price was Jason.

I had a look at it today and it looks worse in the flesh,they had some nice parts in and i noticed a complete bridge spoiler hatch,set of cup 1's (may be reps ?) and some good red leather turbo style seats !!

 

[944 man]

Wait until you see their prices! Its like being in 1993 all over again.

 

[random hero]

I have delt with them for years and have never had any bother with them and have allways got the parts i wanted for very reasonable prices

I've used them too. On one notable occasion (many years ago) I was advised by the muppets at a certain SW OPC that isn't in Devon that I needed a new heater control unit when my clip had broken by the glove box. I got a used one from Douglas Valley for £450 (which was half the pre-VAT new price), obviously discovered it didn't fix the problem, but they accepted it back for a refund.

To be fair I have used Porsch-Apart in preference for some time now but that's more because I know Simon through him being a good friend of my chosen indie than poor service or high prices from DVB.

Ive only ever used porsch-apart once but this is only down to them not have the parts i wanted at the time rather than price. I had some good buys from prestige slavage at leeds over the years as well !!
