Hi all, long term lurker and lover of the 944. Finally got round to signing up.

Does anyone know this turquoise 944 S2? It is really pulling me in.

http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/ ... ?logcode=p

A few questions if I may, we're those alloys ever an option on the S2? Is that steering wheel original?

Thanks

Pete

EDIT, apologies this may have been better placed in the general 944 forum, mods may wish to move it.

OK I think the colour is Aventura Green which is pretty rare on an S2. The wheels are not original nor is the steering wheel. It would have been on Design 90 16" when new with a four spoke steering wheel.

Thanks for the quick responses. What are the design 90 16"s? Is mike Holmes a member on here? The ad says it has been in the same family for 8 years.

Edit. I just googled design 90, I like those alloys too. Those aftermarket ones on the car also look good, are they 'cup' alloys from a 911?

Just read you post

The wheels are Cup 1 alloys of a 968 (17in) and the steering wheel the same , Nether which are after-market
