Yup its a carbed model, ill try get the paint code off it over the weekend, if I can remember where it is and get at it as currently its parked in the corner of the lockup



a picture from when it was moved over there, hell I even owned a nearly fully working s2 think it even had mot at that point, just a shame it had no clutch.

I know, its going for a mot on monday so providing it passes, I may drive it for a few months and sell my passat estate whilst I get another 20vt engine for in the ur.

less than 125 on the road, these are rare beasts.

Definately should fit the weber if you have it. Mine has the conversion and its on a manual choke and it runs fine. I run mine on high octane petrol (simply cos I don't so that many miles and can justify the expense).

I don't use mine as a daily but would have no qualms doing so. A great motor and full of character.

Of course I'm not biased
Yeah only reason I never put the carb on was I like the autochoke as its how it came out the factory so i'd like to keep it as close to that as possible (the lowering was one thing my father wanted because it was so high as standard)
