Yes, I have an S2 which I have used daily to go to work in for the last couple of years. Great combination of practicality, performance, build quality and relatively economical. As for the grip - sensational! Ride is hard - it's nervous over bumps and the switchgear in front of the gear level is an ergonomic failure! As well as the timing belt, you must keep a very close eye on the camshaft timing chain and tensioner which isn't covered off in the services unless you ask. Very expensive if it breaks!
