The main change is the motor,(sedans only) from september on S2 got the option of the 220Kw motor which be came standard in the S3, S3 had standard sill moulds.& clear gaurd blinkers S2 had orange, side mirror backs were colour coded on late S2s and all S3s. Late S2s and the S3 had 2 body kit choices that's about it ..nothing inside changed

Get a series 2 change the roller rockers and throttle body... and hey you've got a series 3...... Also you'll have a bigger cam than the 220 anyways so it'd be a 226 or something ;)
